An Unforgettable Wedding Cake Experience We ordered our wedding cake from this bakery, and to this day, every single guest still talks about it ,not one person failed to say it was the most delicious cake they’ve ever had. We chose a chocolate cake with salted caramel filling and vanilla, and it was absolute perfection. The flavor balance, the texture, and the presentation were all flawless. It wasn’t just beautiful ,it was truly unforgettable. It became such a favorite that now, every year on our anniversary or birthdays, we make sure to have a cupcake in the same flavor to relive that moment. This bakery doesn’t just make cakes ,they create memories.

After having the joy of tasting Bent Fork for my birthday for the first time last year, I knew we had to get our wedding cake from them! We ordered a cutting cake for ourselves, and a few different flavors of sheet cake for our guests. I have never been to a wedding where all of the cake was eaten! We ordered more cake than we even needed, and our guests cleaned house! It was DELICIOUS! Thanks for the tasty memories!

My favorite bakery ever! My family adores the smiley face cookies, the frosting is amazing. Their pies aren't anything to call home about, but the s'more bars definitely are. The prices are nice and the staff are attentive and helpful.

Ordered cookies and mini cupcakes for a baby shower. They were as delicious as they were beautiful! I recommended Bent Fork to everyone (well, everyone who didn't already know about them)!

I ordered a Lilo and Stitch custom birthday cake for a 2 yr old birthday party. They nailed it!!! And the cake was very moist. I'm not a frosting girl, so moist cake is a blessing.

After trying many Chicago cake tastings, we felt like most bakeries missed the mark when it came to flavor. Bent Fork Bakery completely changed that for us. Our wedding cake was absolutely incredible, both stunning to look at and unbelievably delicious. Every bite was full of flavor and had our guests raving all night.
We chose the almond cake with cream cheese frosting and another layer with strawberries as the filling, and honestly, it was the best cake I’ve ever had. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about it.
On top of that, our dessert table was a huge hit. Not a single treat was left by the end of the night, which says everything.
Liz was an absolute joy to work with. She was kind, attentive, and so easy to communicate with. She made the entire process stress-free.
Our wedding cake was a true highlight of our celebration. We couldn’t have asked for a better bakery!

Long before I met my husband, I decided that my wedding cake would come from a boutique bakery in the city but after their $50 tasting box fell short, I was disappointed to have to add “find a bakery” back onto my already long list of wedding tasks. I did a few tastings with other bakeries and was honestly close to giving up on desserts altogether because I couldn’t find something that WOW’d me.
Enter Bent Fork Bakery. I ordered a few tasters (two layer take home cupcakes in custom flavors) and upon diving in, I was blown away and once again excited about our wedding cake!
We ended up ordering a 3-tier wedding cake (each tier a different, AMAZING flavor), a groom’s cake (decorated perfectly!), a gluten-free cake, plus an assortment of regular and gluten-free desserts (cookies, bars, biscotti… OMG their toffee cookie is drool-worthy!!). Every single item was absolutely incredible and the gf treats were so good that when our caterer accidentally mixed them in with the regular items, no one even noticed! We are still getting compliments from guests about how amazing the desserts were!
And working with Liz was a dream! We communicated solely through email (my preference) and she was responsive, easy to communicate with, and made the whole process stress-free!
I’ve been back several times since our wedding and recently tried their homemade ho hos. I heard these were really good but I was never a fan of the original so I was reluctant to try them… but WOW, now I’m hooked!!
Bent Fork Bakery completely exceeded my expectations, and I’ll be recommending them to everyone I know. If you’re looking for desserts that will WOW, Bent Fork Bakery is the place!

This is my go to place for birthday cakes. They are always delicious, the small size is perfect for a family celebration with lots of leftovers to enjoy. My favorites so far: s'mores, chocolate chocolate, the Sophie and the almond. Always get a decorated sugar cookie to eat on the spot, they are the best!

Everything from Bent Fork is amazing— high quality, flavorful and made by the best! I’ve loved so many treats over the years— blueberry lemon bread, chocolate hoho’s, fun flavored bars and cupcakes, key lime pie, mini pies and more! I recommend it all!! Support local and always shop at Bent Fork for your bakery wants and needs! There are always multiple employees offering to help or answer questions— but you can’t go wrong with anything you order! One of everything is going to be the best way to go 😉
