Cupcakes near Des Plaines, IL

“Best sourdough in Illinois! Great service and a comfortable environment.“

“Nadiya did our gender reveal for my husband and I. We were so eager to find out we asked if she could do it in 2-3 days and she said yes. And she got it done! Nonetheless, I didn’t give any input on what the cake should look like and was totally ok if it was just a while boring cake on the outside. It wasn’t though! We got it home and looked and it marveled at all its intricacies. It was so beautifully decorated with bows and tons of detail. For the price we paid and for her wonderful craftsmanship we will definitely go to Nadiya again for our baking needs! Not to mention we loved the taste and so did our furbabies that did the cake cutting with us! 🩷“

“I love to come here on a day off and get my High lemonade and a pastry roll (cupcake, cookie, slice of cake). The people there are amazing, kind, super chill & best of all welcoming!:) Although the place is small, it’s still a great place to visit + their cute duck collection!“

“The customer service was excellent and French vanilla cupcakes was delicious. I will be returning soon.“

“This place is amazing! We had to get
a couple cakes for some family birthday parties, and one very special unicorn cake for my toddler’s birthday. I walked in, described what I was looking for, and every cake I ordered turned out so much better than I could have imagined! The cakes were all absolutely beautiful and DELICIOUS! Kids and adults alike kept raving about them - and the process couldn’t have been easier. This baker is a gem to work with and he makes some very good baked goods. Wouldn’t think twice about going back, and recommended it to everyone at the party. Plus, he’s less than half the cost of some of these “designer” bakers out there - and it was SUCH a beautiful cake!!

Try the donuts and coffee cake while you’re there - also a huge hit in our household!“

“I have had cupcakes and other treats before, but this was my first time ordering some - a custom-made pumpkin pie without clove. My mom always made it without and I never could bring myself to like it with. Well, I took one bite and it tasted so much like my mom's pumpkin pie that I almost cried. She passed away last year and had actually not cooked for a couple years beforehand. This really hit me very unexpectedly! Thank you so much to Ashley and her wonderful team at Punky Cakes.“

“Smallcakes is a cupcake lover's paradise. Their cupcakes are not just treats, but little works of art. The flavors are innovative and the frosting is heavenly. I especially loved the Red Velvet cupcake - a perfect balance of sweet and savory. Definitely recommend anybody with a sweet tooth to visit here at least once.“

“DeliPan on Harlem and Schubert THIS IS THE BEST BREAD IVE EVER HAD! They got a new customer, my kids and my wife were so happy! And señora Martha was really nice and helpful. I had never tasted the Guatemalan bread and now it’s probably one of my favorite! 100/100 recommend. Also they’re taking a lot of extra precautions during all of this. I stayed in my car for a minute and they went and wiped the doors and bread cabinets, Thanks DeliPan!!“

“Sweet T's made an extraordinary cake for my daughter's baby shower. Not only was it adorable but everyone loved the amazing cake itself.“

“We were across the street getting the boys haircuts and noticed that they had a little window open so we figured we would check it out.Super happy we went over and they happen to be open for the weekend with a bake sale. The truck looks to be used for catering and they open the store 1 weekend a month for walk up customers. The staff were super nice and helpful. We ended up buying a couple cupcakes and a stuffed cookie. All of the food was awesome and if the boys approve then you know it's good!We will be back next month once they open again.“

“Went to pick up my free Birthday cake!! Everyone is so nice!!“

“We couldn’t be happier with the cakes the Mad Baker has created for us over the years. She isn’t just a baker, she’s an artist. The cakes are perfect aesthetically and are equally as delicious. Thank you Mad Baker for helping make our daughter’s birthday parties even more magical with your cakes.“

“This lady is amazing!! I don’t know about any other reviews, she always comes through for me. I love her work m. Been a customer for years.“
