Bakeries near Lake Forest

“long time fan! Everything about this bakery is awesome!“

“Blissful Brownies are nothing short of perfection. From the very first bite, you’re met with an incredibly rich chocolate flavor that melts in your mouth, balanced by a perfectly crisp top layer that adds just the right amount of texture. The fudgy center is dense yet smooth, delivering the kind of indulgence that only a truly well-crafted brownie can provide.

Each brownie tastes like it was made with the finest ingredients—real butter, high-quality cocoa, and just the right touch of sweetness. There’s no artificial aftertaste, no overwhelming sugar rush—just pure, chocolatey bliss. Whether enjoyed on their own, paired with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, or dunked into a cold glass of milk, they never fail to satisfy.

Blissful Brownies live up to their name in every possible way. They’re rich but not overpowering, sweet but balanced, and the kind of treat that makes you close your eyes and savor every bite. If you’re looking for the perfect brownie, this is it.“

“My experience was great! During these challenging times, there was a minor situation that was out of their control. I called the Auntie Anne's the next day and spoke to Megan the acting/assistant manager. Megan listened to my concern and welcomed me to come back and have my order fulfilled properly. She also added free items to make sure I was satisfied. Megan was very relatable and it was a breath of fresh air to have a great discussion with her. I can't wait to come back to this location which is in a food court of lots of other fast food options and gas station!“

“This place is a gem! From the moment I walked in, I was blown away by how kind and knowledgeable the staff was. The girl who helped me was so sweet, super patient, and explained everything perfectly. You can really tell they care about the customer experience and make sure you feel comfortable and taken care of. Now let’s talk about the lemonades—WOW. Infused and delicious, it was honestly one of the best lemonades I’ve ever had. And the baked goods? Incredible. Soft, flavorful, and just the right amount of kick. Everything I tried was amazing, and I can’t wait to go back and try more. I seriously love, love, love this place. The staff, the products, the vibe—Blazed Bakery is on point. Thank you for such an awesome experience!“

“Friendly staff who do magnificent work!“

“The bread is out of this world. My personal favorite is the seeded. The pastries are also very good. What a treasure.“

“I finally was in the area and managed to stop by and try this bakery out today. Having a nut allergy, safe bakeries are extremely hard to come by. The fact that this place is also delicious will have me back for sure. Nice employee, delicious treats, I definitely recommend.“

“What can I say: the bakery, food, and drink offerings here are outstanding and the owner is incredibly friendly and clearly passionate about what she's doing.

You really can't go wrong with any of the grab and go cake, cupcake, or pastry items. We've gotten many of them, and we've also gotten special order cakes from here that have been wonderful. Their breakfast burritos (vegetarian or not) are a great quick breakfast option. The quiches (which are relatively new) are exceptional. The hibiscus agua fresca is a lovely refreshing drink for a hot day.

I hope this place stays here for a long time because its popularity has added liveliness to the Roger Williams area.“

“That Little French Guy makes us happy every time we head that way. The Champs de Élysées doesn’t have better! It’s being back in Paris, every unique French delight. Thank you for our favorite place to visit often.“

“Friendly staff who do magnificent work!“

“The best sugar cookies in Illinois!“

“So this past June marked my very first time visiting a Crumbl Cookies. I guess I musta been living under rock (actually no) but apparently I misunderstood the concept behind the famed bakery.When I first walked in and browsed the menu, I was like "only 6 different types of cookies?" Well ok then, guess I'll try each one times 2. I eventually found out from my stepdaughter that there's a rotation each week which makes perfect sense.These cookies are outstanding: they stay soft, moist & flavorful for several days and the price which may seem high to some is definitely worth it. The ability to add on to the cookies is ideal as well.Customer service is down-to-earth friendly and helpful and as long as they keep baking that yummy goodness with consistency, I'll keep coming back for more.“

“Ordered a chocolate and vanilla cake with a cookies and cream filling and it was not only beautiful but DELICIOUS!! such moist fresh and decadent. I ordered this coming from Texas needing to find a birthday cake for my son since we were celebrating near here. It was perfect!“

“Cutest yummiest cookies… totally worth the visit“

“It gets packed on the weekends, in the early morning but who doesn't like fresh bread! The only dislike I have is the bread conchas have cinnamon (which I can't eat alot, still tasty ?). & You don't know the cost of each bread since it doesn't provide a price available, until the cashier charges you. ?? NO EBT! ?“

“Very nice, very friendly store with a great selection of bundt cakes in various sizes. Go and enjoy, you deserve it...“

“Everything here is incredibly delicious! I guarantee that anything you try you will love! ☺️ I have been getting my cakes from Gourmet Frog for over 15 years, and from my wedding day to just because I was having a bad day and needed a little treat, it's always a hit! I can't recommend froggies enough! (What I endearingly call them ?)“

“todo delicioso y el lugard muy limpio y muy buen servicio“

“My daughter and I often have lunch next door and then come over here for treats. The baked goods are absolutely fresh and delicious, and the prices feel like you’re stealing. The staff are all sweet and kind as can be. If you’re looking for a great panaderia with a wide selection of tasty products at incredible prices, you won’t do better than Lupita’s. Highly recommended!“

“These aren’t just cookies! They are a MEAL😊 Kudos to Carol’s Cookies for creating masterpieces!“

“Stop in for the canolli and stay for the food.“

“Delicious. I have never tasted something more scrumptious. I love the workers. They are my true friends. They get me, they are there for me, and they see me on my worst and best days. I make it my life goal to go everyday just to see them. They know me by name. 10/10. Love it here.“

“Thanks for the wonderful confetti cake for Halloween 🎃“

“Amazing find! Worth the drive. Been wanting to find/try a vegan bakery. Had seen this store come up when searching for options. Today made the drive there. So worth it!!! Choc Chip scone is delicious; good texture, plenty of chips and excellent tasting. Also purchased cinnamon roll. After heating, just incredible! Frosting super delish, dough was great. Anxious to go back, would like to try cupcakes, empanadas and pie. Store is super cute!!! Also, the owner/manager was at an event, not at store today. However, family member there (Mom I think). What a sweet, kind, friendly professional “filler in”. Service is everything!“

“During our cross-country trip, my girlfriend and I visited Gurnee Mills Mall. Before leaving, we used a gift card to get Auntie Anne's. Although the gift card had a balance large enough to cover the food we ordered, the machine wasn't accepting it. Thankfully, the worker was helpful and understanding. He resolved the issue and made the situation good. The food we had was super delicious. I would give it a 5-star rating!“

“Nice and tasty and a great gluten free option“

“todo el pan muy delicioso“

“Came here for a quick snack while at the mall with my friends. Staff was nice and there was virtually no line. Staff picked out biggest Cinnabon for us even though there were smaller ones in the tray which was very kind. Lots of seating nearby as this was right next to the food court.

Parking: Inside a mall which had lots of parking.“

“exelente y delicioso pan su atención al cliente es formidable sale uno con satisfacción no hay mejor pan que aquí“

“Todo esta muy rico ademas se sus antojitos 🌮, reposteria y mas yo regresó 😋😋“

“I tried the donuts from Mini Donut Factory, and it was unforgettable! These little masterpieces literally melt in your mouth—fresh, fluffy, and incredibly delicious. If you’re looking for something special to treat yourself or your loved ones, this is the place. Highly recommend!“

“I am now in love & have found my new little favorite bakery. When I walked in I thought it was the cutest little shop ever. So bright & clean. So many cute little gift items, even for your pampered pooch. I bought 2 dozen variety mini bundts and they were sooooo delicious and very moist. The cream cheese frosting was out of the world. The presentation was awesome. I loved how they put a card inside each box so everyone knew what they were eating. I will definitely be back.“

“Their pan dulce is AWESOME!!! This is the only bakery I go to get pan dulce! I know the owners are they are very sweet. However lately the workers they have are a bit unprofessional. On the phone and having loud conversations. Product wise, the bread, LOVE IT!!!!!“

“Just popping on here to say I really like this Crumbl location! I’ve been a big fan of Crumbl for about 4 years now and this location always has consistently great treats. The employees at this Vernon Hills Crumbl are always friendly. I’ve had some nice, light-hearted experiences during order pickup, and they’ve always been efficient and professional, too. I’m easily giving them 5 stars — without hesitation!“

“(Translated by Google) Very rich champurrado and Atole de Nuez, the cakes are very tasty and the service is very good in general.(Original)Muy rico champurrado y Atole de Nuez, los pasteles esta bien ricos y el servicio muy bueno en general.“

“Hi, The best donuts anywhere. They are working and baking at 2:00 each morn, so you can have fresh donuts in the morning. Best Chocolate frosting ever; little secret, freshly made. They try hard to please everyone.“

“I tried these cookies a few months ago at my local gas station and when I tell you it is quite literally the best cookie I’ve ever had! All these crumbl cookie and other places have nothing on the taste of these cookies! I truly believe these cookies are made with LOVE! Thank you prairie city bakery for putting these delicious cookies in my life!!“

“So glad I tried and continue to enjoy Maria’s Italian Bakery and Cafe! This authentic spot offers wonderful service and excellent quality menu items— highly recommend!“
