    What I asked for vs. what I got

    WHAT I ORDERED VS. WHAT I GOT‼‼‼ The worse thing ever is when you can't deliver what you promise to a client...The fact that this was not my first time using Gigante Bakery Gigante Bakery but this was my first time receiving such horrible service....I reached out multiple times and have been to the bakery twice to have them refund my client for her entire order but keep getting the run around...I always want happy clients so I've refunded my client but I will never use this bakery again Swipe to see this horrible job...the cake had been sitting out cause it was sweating...I ordered a 2 tier instead of the 3 tier but with 2 teddy bears not whatever was sitting on top of that cake...some of the balls were falling off the cake and missing...the cookies were the absolute WORSE they looked like preschoolers made them nothing like the picture...the cake pops were all cracked and falling off the sticks and half not even round... just a rushed job that was threw together prior to me picking up the order...what a horrible memory for a 1st time mother...oh and I was offered a $42 credit

    Horrible! I ordered a Birthday cake from Gigante Bakery 140 South Bolingbrook Drive on this past Saturday for my Nieces Birthday. The cake looked good on the outside but when we went to eat it, it was horrible. Everyone was very disappointed. I called them this Morning to see if I could get a credit or something and was told that the buttercream sometimes link into the cake but I should just scrub it off and eat around it or I should have brought the entire cake back for a refund,this is so unacceptable and I'm so hurt that we have this establishment in Bolingbrook. Do Not Go To Gigante Bakery Unless you want the cake from Hell....

    Love love love their cakes!! Try their tres laches cakes vanilla and chocolate cakes. Best location as it's near Walmart and dominos and dollar store.

    Amazing wedding cake!

    Ordered a cake for a wedding and it was amazing - we had a three layer cake delivered with various flavors. For the price nothing could beat it. Highly recommend!

    well Hispanic bakery in a nice little small strip center embracing the Chicago ethnicities of everybody. Paczki!! hurray
    Kevin D.

    this is a small little bakery that sits in the more Hispanic dominated area of Bolingbrook near the Walmart supercenter in the little it is more of a Hispanic area now.. Yet it was Paczki day the 25th of Feb. also fat Tuesday 2020. and I knew the bakeries around me it was going to be forever to wait but I happen to be cruising over after having a couple quick sliders to the drive-thru at White Castle caught the corner of my eye Gigante bakery known as the giant. well here on this day I decided originally well it's too late I don't feel like waiting in line for hours and hours but as I walked up to this I saw this little sign on the door Paczki here. there was a proximately about a good six or seven flavors for Hispanic bakery that's really cool..apparently this place is known for its tres leche cake the 3milk cake which is a Spanish like Mexican Hispanic traditional dessert. and that's mainly their clientele but as I walked in I was pleasantly surprised I was greeted in a very friendly manner...told the woman I'm just going to kind of take a look around here and look at a few different things and then I saw the Paczki that were being brought out. they sure looks like the traditional she said yeah they take a little bit of time but the fact that this is the Chicago area in general and they're proud to be Chicagoans proud to take part in the ethnicities that makes us such a great multicultural City.. this is a very small bakery they serve a lot of gigantic and type of bread and small pastries they have a nice selection for a small as it is a nice awards on the wall..seems like they have a pretty steady clientele for specialty cakes and much more but I just wanted some Paczki. and I had success I left with two strawberry one blueberry and an apricot for my mom. the best part it wasn't hours and hours waiting in line like some of the classic traditional European bakeries this is just a little Hispanic bakery and they tasted great.. well I don't really buy a lot of baking stuff most of the time that's my dad that does it just a fact that it was there and was able to pick it up was very cool and the quality was great keep up the good work..well I don't live in the area my truck just get parked there it's still worked out all for the good. funny part was there were a couple of what seemed to be Europeans from the area passing through either on work or business that bought a few Paczki and were quite satisfied with no wait to say walked out the door with smiles on their face..sure you could have went into town closer to the city or the European and got the monster ones in bakeries with varieties of 50 flavors or more for the traditional day.. but to be able to get in there and get a traditional one for the most part which was really delicious which is fine.

    Clearly poorly done ugly wedding cake so disappointed I spent 152$ on this turd of a wedding cake! Luckily it tasted fine!

    Attention to detail here they lacked ability To perform simple details!!!! I purchased a three tier wedding cake and it tasted great! But I was was very very disappointed once I picked up my cake and saw how terrible it looked yes they did do what I asked for but it was very poorly executed and felt like it ruined my day

    The work at this bakery is unbelievable! The cake was beautiful and we were able to have different flavors on each layer. The cake was delicious!

    Ok here it is Fat Tuesday and we need our paczki fix! Well this is the place. Just bought a dozen assorted and they were fresh and delicious forget the big box stores. This is where you need to be for fresh bakery

    Bought a bread from here expecting it to be filled, when it wasn't. It was hollow and the bread was very stale and hard. The staff is very rude and the prices are outrageous. My mom had her wedding cake made here last year and the inside was NOTHING like what she planned. From the wrong filling to even cake flavor. Very unprofessional. Went in today also to consult about a baby shower cake and the cashier lady was being rude and she seemed very upset. Never coming back !! Don't waste your money !!! Watch out !!!

    I ordered a two-tiered cake to feed 50 people at my bridal shower and it was a hit! The cake was absolutely beautiful and tasted so delicious! Thank you Gigante Bakery!

    I ORDERED THIS CAKE AND OMG I WAS SO ASTONISHED BY THE WORK MY BABY SHOWER COULDN'T HAVE BEEN BETTER

I followed up three separate times after the event to share my concerns and received no response at all--which really shows how little they value customer service. * I didn't receive the full list of cake flavor options until four days before pickup, and when I asked to switch flavors, I was told it was already too late because the cakes had been baked without confirming my choice. * I had a confirmed pickup time of 10:30 a.m., but when I arrived, I was told the designer went home sick and the cakes weren't finished. I ended up waiting until 11:45 a.m. for them to be decorated, which explains the rushed design. * The cake pops weren't ready, so I had to cancel them and run to another store last-minute to find replacements. * I specifically requested pastel colors, but the cakes were decorated in bright colors that didn't match anything we discussed. * The design and quality were extremely disappointing--the decorations looked rushed, the frosting was hard, and the smash cake wasn't even edible for its intended use. Overall, this was an unprofessional and frustrating experience from start to finish. Between the poor communication, lack of accountability, low-quality product, and complete disregard for customer concerns, I strongly recommend going elsewhere. They clearly do not prioritize quality or customer service.

    This bakery is 5 YEARS old! I cannot believe I have never tried it…read more In a pinch for a red velvet cake I made a call the day before and YES! They could do it. I got a whipped filling and buttercream frosting. This cake was moist and the frostings were so good! The options of cakes and fillings- never ending! I had to hold myself back and not buy anything else. I did grab myself a cherry bar. Tiny tart - Loved every bite. Go get yourself something tasty!

    This is a recent discovery and I wished I had discovered it sooner!…read more Here's what we have tried so far: 1) Creme brulee donut* 2) Caramel banana crunch cruffin* 3) Tiramisu cruffin* 4) Chocolate donut with vanilla glaze and sprinkles 5) Vanilla donut with strawberry glaze and sprinkles 6) Vanilla glazed old-fashioned donut The ones marked with an asterisk are our favorites. Those items are a bit pricier than the rest but they are quite unique. The cruffins are flakey, sugary without being overwhelming, creamy but subtle, and very satisfying. I have a strong sweet tooth and I am greedy. So I generally like to try more than one item in one sitting. These portions are not small and I would recommend sharing if you want to try a variety. I have monthly appointments in the general area and I try to plan it so that I will have enough time before or after my appointment to make a quick stop at Fiene's. My visits are usually during the week and I would be in and out within 10 minutes.
