    Fantastic shopping experiences and the quality is superb. I recommend this place for your every special icy

    Baptism and Chrismation celebration cake.

    Always impressed with this bakery. Cakes are outstanding - beautiful and delicious. They also whipped together an amazing baptism cake with a little over 1 day notice - absolutely perfect! The miniature goodies are also works of art. Highly recommend!

    Tiramisu and Black Forest slices

    Hit or miss depending on what you pick from the case, which I've experienced at other locations too. I would say about half the items (last time I got 6 treats ranging from cupcakes to mini tarts to cake slices and a kolacky) I paid for were actually fresh. The other items were clearly not made that day and had been sitting sadly in the case for a while. On the last few occasions, whatever flavor of cake slice I chose was definitely staling, so I definitely don't recommend buying cake by the slice. No wonder all sales are final. I do support buying custom order or pre-order cakes here though! Really fresh cake when made especially for you. Easy parking in the strip mall lot too.

    CHERRY YOGURT GATEAU

    OMG, this place is Chicago's bakery for a reason. They did our wedding cakes (why get one when you can two at twice the price, lol...) and we also got this DELICIOUS "Cherry Yogurt Gateau" for a recent birthday. Gosh, this place kicks those cheap grocery store sheet cakes to the curb with all the flavor and quality! Thanks again, Oak Mill: your cakes rule!!! :D

    Oak Mill Bakery has a number of beautiful wedding cakes on display at their bakery in Arlington Heights, and we started working with Bill there. The first step was to arrange a tasting. We had two of our close friends join us for a cake tasting. For an hour, we leafed through books of cake designs, and tasted various cakes and frostings. At the end we had decided on our cake design, and flavors. It was a very enjoyable experience. We ordered the cake, and provided our own topper before the wedding. The cake was absolutely beautiful, and tasted delicious. I receive numerous compliments from guests about the cake. It looked, and tasted wonderful. I recommend Oak Mill Bakery without any hesitation.

    It has taken me almost 4 years to do this review and I'm not sure why. The last time I was here I…read morehad ordered a custom cake for her birthday and it turned out absolutely fantastic. So I came by here again to pick up some goodies before a flight because I was planning on bringing it on the flight. And when I walked in, I realized I had done a complete renovation of the inside which looks fantastic. As usual everything is super eye catching great photographs although I did not take lots of photographs of the ambience or the interior decor but definitely do that when you visit here. Everything is super fresh very cute and definitely taste homemade and clean. You can tell from the box picture I picked up five different pastries that happen to be in the cases and available that particular day. I will definitely come back here again as it is close to my home and everything is super tasty.

Tje peach cobbler was decent. The Oreo cupcake was okay. It wasn't bad but it tasted like it came right out of a box. Coconut cupcake was just a chocolate cupcake with vanilla frosting dipped in coconut flakes. Meh. The carrot cake was an absolute no. So so dry as well as frosting. No cream cheese frosting or nuts. More like a dry bread with icing. My boyfriend tried the pineapple cake and likes almost everything. Spit it out immediately. The texture and taste were very off putting. I'm not sure how much is actually "baked" there. Not close to bakery quality.

I can't wait two months to come back for more, but it's an all day affair to make the drive down and hit up other markets in the area. I always regret not picking up more snacks to bring back, but after a few days it goes stale. Still yummy, but never as much as day one! My favorite are the pillowy yeast breads filled with chocolate pudding. If I could allow it, I'd eat ten. Also some baked apple bread with cooked apple slices is one to watch out for. Sooo good. I love the self-serve setup. Take a tray, grab some clean tongs and take whatever your heart and stomach desires. The cashiers are all very kind and move fast. They also package up delicate items safely, like those cake slices in the cool case that you didn't know you needed. I wish I lived closer!

We recently diverged from our usuals and tried the sando with pork katsu. It had some shredded vegetable and ketchup-base sauce. I am indifferent to it but I am not opposed to trying the other savory items. We have gone on different days and times over the years. The shelves are almost always well-stocked. Sometimes we would have a brief wait for them to replenish the raisin bread loaves but it is the mister's favorite so it is worth it. The bakery staff are very friendly and quick so the lines are kept moving.

    Jarosch Bakery is one of those classic, old-school bakeries that's been serving the Chicago suburbs…read morefor decades, and you can tell the moment you walk in. It has that traditional neighborhood bakery feel with display cases full of cookies, donuts, pastries, breads, and cakes. The bakery has been around since 1959 and is known for making many of its items from scratch, which really shows in the quality. Jarosch Bakery +1 The selection is impressive. Their butter cookies, coffee cakes, sweet rolls, and donuts are standouts, and everything looks fresh and carefully made. If you're picking up dessert for a gathering or ordering a custom cake for a celebration, this is the kind of bakery that has built a reputation for doing those things really well. The place can get busy, especially around holidays, but that's usually a good sign that people keep coming back. Prices are a bit on the higher side compared to grocery store bakeries, but the quality and traditional baking make it worth it. Overall, Jarosch Bakery is a great spot if you appreciate classic bakeries that focus on fresh, scratch-made pastries and desserts. It's the kind of place that feels like a local tradition.

I went in early this morning, before 7am, to pick up some paczkis, their awesome cinnamon raisin bread and my dad's favorite, the Swedish Flat. And we weren't disappointed. So the front counter space is big. Their inside space to wait is, I believe, a little bit bigger compared to their old location. They still have their shelving in there with kolaczkis, assorted breads and pre-boxed paczkis. They are still getting everything together from their move and they didn't have a lot of pazckis available, which is ok because we aren't at Fat Tuesday yet amd last year you could place an order for them online. But their customer service is great as usual, and customers leave with smiles on their faces. I asked one of the employees there how have the longtime customers taken to the new building and she said so far it's been a mix. I love the new place and can't wait to see how they perform when they are all don't acclimating to their new home. Also, they have a awesome looking espresso machine but it isn't up and running when I was there. Thanks for being able to replace my hole in my heart when our local bakery closed a ling time ago.

Donuts, apple fritters, and eclairs were very tasty. The custards were yummy. Cons: Place was dead, not one customer to be found on a Saturday morning at 7:30am. Stop going to the chain coffee joints and try a small place that needs us. I preordered a little leas than $100 worth of cakes, pies, and pastries so I grabbed some of the cookies to make it $100. The butter cookies are $33 a lb. Ouch! As soon as you take a bite they fall apart and crumble everywhere. The kids didn't like the taste and didn't eat any of them, a waste of $12. No prices anywhere other than the boxed goods or coffee signs. 4% fee for using a credit card which I get, but have it posted better. Couple small signs I caught over by the fresh stuff saying price tags reflect cash price, but yet didn't see prices anywhere other than on shelves by boxed stuff. Have prices posted. French silk pie was very thick and not very chocolaty. No one really cared for it, def would not get again. I looked back at receipt after I left and see a random charge for "open retail" for $3.12, no clue what that is. So was over charged for something I didn't get.
