Booked a cake 3 months out for a quincenera. A week before I needed it, I emailed the owner and asked what would be a good time for pick up. Never responded so we had to scramble and find another bakery to make the cake. It’s 2 weeks later and we still haven’t received any kind of communication. I love supporting black owned businesses, but communication is key to stay in business. Really disappointed.

Cal's Cakes & Design is wonderful!. We had ordered a cake from him for my sisters on 07/14/2020 and we needed it on the 17th of July. He stayed in constant contact with us including sending pictures of the cake as it was being made. We will order again for our wedding

I would give this zero stars if I could. They cancelled my order 3 hours AFTER they were supposed to deliver. They refused to pick up the phone, refused to respond to emails, or text. There was no explanation. No apology. Even worse? They’ve refused to process my refund.It’s been 2 weeks now and as far as I’m concerned they’re scammers.Their website also doesn’t let anyone submit a review if it’s less than 2 stars and you can see them clearly only replying to positive reviews.

I found this bakery on Google and thought I'd give it a try. At first, I was scared due to the last review but, I'm glad I did. I was in Chicago having a few small weddings with a few family and friends and needed a simple wedding cake.When we reached out he informed us that he was out of town but he could still make the cake and ship it to us. I was a little nervous about that but agreed. The day before the wedding we were so surprised to see Cal with the cake at the house( since we were having it at my parents). I was so happy about that since I know shipping companies never care about your fragile items.We opened the box and was so happy to see that he did it just like we wanted. He gave us all the instructions on how to prep the cake before we serve it.

I ordered from Cals Cakes &Design for my sons birthday- I can’t start to tell you how wonderfully well the order was handled from beginning to end. Cal was engaging in conversation and the cake was amazing!!! Thank you Cal for making this birthday one to rememeber!!

Stay away from this business! When we heard about this business, we were excited to work with him. His pictures of previous cakes looked awesome on his Yelp page but now I think all these photos are fabricated. We reserved a hulk cake for my sons 3rd birthday. We paid over $100 for this cake. My son was looking forward to his awesome cake that Cal had promised us. We were under the impression that he was going to deliver the cake and on the day before the party, he told us he was going to ship the cake via UPS. Who ships a cake?! What we got in the mail was not what we agreed on...and when trying to reach him on the day of the party, he did not return any of our calls or emails. We want our money back. We still have yet to hear from him. Cal ruined our sons 3rd birthday and we were left last minute to find a hulk toy topper to help savage thus disastrous mess. Stay away!!!!**see our review on yelp for pictures of the cake they sent us** TOTAL SCAM!!!!!!

Cannot say enough good things about the prompt response & care Cal put into a cupcake order we placed for a small social distance gathering. Will be ordering again!

I found Cal's Cakes & Design from a Yelp search. I had a positive experience from start to finish. I was looking to purchase a cake a week after the riots and looting took place in Chicago, so unfortunately a lot of companies were closed. I called about ten different cake companies and Cal was one of two companies who responded. Cal was professional from start to finish. The cake was shipped by UPS on ice and arrived on time. The cake was delicious to the point I couldn't stop eating it. I had a slice of cake for dessert everyday for a week. What made the delivery even more special is Cal sent me a birthday card.It was a really nice card had music and everything. I appreciated the kind gesture. I highly recommend
