Jarosch Bakery recently moved into a new location, but it still has all of the same amazing flavors…read moreas before. The new location is in a brand-new building, and their coffee selection has expanded as well. Their butter cookies are the best I've ever had, and it's difficult to leave without a box. Sometimes I even buy two boxes--one to eat on the way home and another to share with my wife when I get there. They have delicious, fresh donuts every day, and I especially love the donut holes they sell on Fridays. I also love that they carry Ideal Bakery's kolaczki and some of their other products. They offer fresh bread that they can slice for you when you order, or you can take it home unsliced. The staff is extremely friendly and patient while taking your order, and they never make you feel rushed, even when there's a line of customers. I ordered a cake and a dessert table from them for a party, and they did an amazing job. Salma was incredibly helpful throughout the process, offering recommendations and assisting us with our order. She took the time to answer all of our questions and made the entire experience stress-free. Keep up the great work, Jarosch Bakery!

Cake pops, chocolate covered pretzels and rice crispies were so fresh ! I'll definitely use granny's cakes again!

Whenever I'm in the mood for cupcakes, I always end up at Smallcakes. Their cupcakes are…read moreconsistently delicious, the frosting is AMAZING, and the staff is always so kind and attentive. In fact, the last time I was there, the sweet young lady behind the counter complimented my style, which honestly made this 40-something feel pretty good about herself. Such a small gesture, but it genuinely made my day. I tried to snap a picture of all the cupcakes we got, but the kids devoured theirs before I had the chance. I'm not sure what the chocolate cupcake with the pretzel on top is called, but it is hands-down my absolute favorite. My husband loves the Wedding Cake and Lemon Drop cupcakes. But if you ask Marley and Mary Jane for their opinion... it's definitely two paws up. These two go absolutely crazy anytime they see a Smallcakes box come into the house because they know I brought them a little pup treat too. I love that Smallcakes offers something for the dogs as well -- such a cute touch. Highly recommend if you're looking for a cupcake spot that's both delicious and welcoming.

It's a small shop located in a plaza. It's pretty bare on the inside. I was immediately greeted upon entry and the lady who checked me out was really nice. She showed me my order before I accepted it. Presentation looked great! They had most of their flavors on display as well as other miscellaneous products like dog cupcakes, decor, etc. The quality of the cupcakes were fresh and hefty. Taste was good but nothing amazing.

Granted it was a baby with a mohawk riding a giant carrot, but that is what they wanted. In fact, Gena said she would make wreckplicas for anyone if asked. That sounded pretty cool. Again, as time was short for me, I hadn't asked if she made vegan cakes. If I find out I'll update.

I don't even know where to start on how AMAZINGLY talented Gena is at iHeartcakes in Elmhurst…read more When looking for the perfect, and cost minded groom's cake to surprise my fiance on our rehearsal night I found iHeartcakes.com. I saw the perfect guitar cake on her website photo album and contacted Gena. Gena is the sweetest, talented and most customizing baker around!! I did all my communicating with Gena through email, she asked for a picture of my (now) husband's favorite guitar he owns so that she can make personally just for him. Additionally, she added an AMP that matched his own one, a real guitar stand, petal and made it all with a turn on switch that lit up the ON button!! We were so shocked, EVERYONE in the restauraunt was asking who and where did I get the cake from!! There are no words for this cake, it was perfection!! The best part is it tasted soooo good too!! Gena can make any flavor, or filling, any design, she is simply the best! Thank you for making my groom SO happy on our special day Gena!!

This lady belongs on NAILED IT. Yes, the Netflix show where people can't bake…read more Not only did she ruin my niece's first birthday cake but this woman was 2 hours late to deliver it. Paid $120 for a cake that was made by a completely unskilled baker and then thrown around by the delivery person she sent to deliver the cake. The cake was delivered all dented and beat up. The cake wasn't even standing straight up...then she wants to say she baked a completely different cake and can't refund since the cake was picked up and eaten...no one ate that sorry excuse of a cake lady. Then she said it was mishandled or got too warm..mishandled by the delivery guy she sent and how did it get too warm on a cold Chicago winter day right after a snowstorm that you blamed for your tardiness? She must have sent some random guy to deliver cause she knew how horrible the cake looked. Don't ever spend your money on a business that is unskilled, has no regard for your event time and can't even personally deliver a cake. I would have loved to see her personally present me with her Nailed It cake.
