“Wow. We were driving from Chicago to Lake Geneva and stopped for gas at a rest stop. Smallcakes had a table set up there amongst the fast food restaurants and boy am I glad lol. We bought 3 - red velvet, chocolate and banana cream. They are the best cupcakes we've ever had (and we eat a lot of cupcakes)! They are sooooo moist and not too sweet. The flavors are big. I love these cupcakes and will now order and have them shipped.Dietary restrictions: They have gluten free options“

“Nadiya was amazing to work with! Her vision, design, and customer service are impeccable. The cake she designed and created for our son's 1st birthday was stunning, tasted delicious, and was a show stopper at his 1st birthday. Nadiya fulfilled my vision of creating a cake for a hot air balloon theme and went above and beyond. At the last minute, I also asked for an order of 50 macarons to go with our theme and Nadiya delivered, no hesitation, no questions asked. 1000% will work again with Nadiya!!Kid-friendliness: Perfect desserts for kids!“

“I just had my very first order from Sweet Reserve Bakery and I am completely in love! I ordered a variety. the cookie butter in a jar was probably the best dessert I've ever had! so delicious, perfect serving. super reasonable prices! 5 stars, 4thumbs up!“

“Chef Nikki Went over and above to reach out to make sure that my order was perfectly special for my precious dogs 13th birthday party. Of course, it was the human guests that ate the cupcakes and at the end of the party they were fighting over the last few.“

“She did an incredible job with this 1st birthday cake and delivery was on time, everything as promised!! I could not recommend her more. Flavor of the cake and frosting was also SO GOOD. A lot of time cakes can look pretty but taste terrible. I would highly recommend her.“

“Service was great. Had our ice cream served in freshly made waffle cones. They were still warm. Tried caramel collision and it was the best caramel ice cream I've ever had. Caramel ice cream with ribbons of caramel and chocolate covered caramel pieces. Absolute heaven.“

“Beautiful & Delicious Cake! I was nervous ordering a large cake for my mom's 90th birthday party because I just showed them a pic of the party invitation and had to trust that they would make a cake that fit in with the floral theme. This was my first time here, so I had never seen or tasted a cake from this bakery. They did not disappoint! The cake was gorgeous AND delicious. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because calling the bakery to speak with someone was hit or miss. Oftentimes you get a voice message telling you to send an email communication. They may be a little short-staffed and the cakes are not cheap, but for me, it was worth the price. They did a fantastic job and I would definitely recommend this bakery for specialty cakes.“

“More than helpful on the different sweets,Cannoli's were delicious and made to order, fresh! Everyone friendly, took my order with a smile...and a cookie for my grandson! :)Kid-friendliness: Person who took my order offered my grandson a cookie, sweet.“

“My favorite birthday cake that I’ve ever had! Decorated beautifully and tasted great. The frosting had just the right amount of sugar and was so smooth and the best frosting I’ve ever had! The cake was very moist. The macarons on top were also very good! The strawberry macaron tasted like a fresh strawberry. I will order all my cakes from her in the future!“

“I saw the bakery sign and quickly parked the car. Upon entering, I saw that the bakery cases mainly held cookies, bars, and cupcakes. Not a huge variety, and more specialized with huge sandwiched cookies, macarons, large bar cookies. I opted for a Raspberry crumb bar and a chocolate cherry macaron decorated to look like Santa's belly. The bar cookie was huge; about 4" x 5". It had a deliciously crisp base, and you could taste the butter. It was filled with a thin layer of jam and a lovely crumb topping.The macaron was another story. The cookie itself was great. Light, airy, and crisp. The filling, however, tasted like white wedding cake frosting. It totally overpowered the macaron base. Made my teeth hurt. Total regret.I'd be interested in trying the cupcakes.“
