Custom Cakes near Mount Prospect, IL

“My company, Epiq Solutions, ordered a custom cake to mimic one of our products. We are an engineering company, so this is no easy task. Central Continental nailed it with the look and the taste! Well done, and thank you!“

“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!“

“The BEST cake and cupcakes ever!
We’ve been going with MadBaker for two birthdays now and won’t be going back - Vanessa is the best! Creativity, attention to detail, and on top of that, the best taste and filling! Thank you! 🩷 10/10!“

“Many Oat milk ice cream options, and so many delicious flavors for ice cream, shakes, sundaes and shaved ice. Love that your dog gets to come into the restaurant and gets free ice cream. Chairs to sit inside or outside.“

“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! 🩷“

“We absolutely loved working with The Baking Institute! Not only was the dessert stunning but it was also incredibly delicious. Our couple couldn’t stop raving about how much they loved it! The design perfectly matched the vision and overall aesthetic, and the flavors were spot-on.

The team was also wonderful to coordinate with, responsive, professional, and so clearly passionate about what they do. We’d happily recommend them to any Chicago couple looking for a beautiful and memorable wedding cake or dessert display!“

“Jorge and his team, especially Josh, are the most welcoming, accommodating people. They truly love what they do and strive to make your day special. They made a cake for my husband's birthday on fairly short notice that was beautiful, better than expected, and delicious! The cream and fruit filling were fresh and not too sweet but honestly the actual cake itself, even though it was just vanilla, was so light and airy. I've never had cake like this! Definitely recommend supporting this wonderful business and will be back for more!“

“We were at the Bakester today and they were understaffed. Iliya was there working as hard as he could and was doing a great job. Through no fault of his own and under great pressure, he tried to get the job done to keep the restaurant moving. The food was great.“

“Delicious old school service and the ice cream is outstanding!! Had a wonderful experience!!“

“Miri is thee best. I've gotten all my cakes here. For 4 children throughout the years and I will forever come back. Not only do the cakes look amazing. Also tastes amazing. In the past I could never find the combination of the two. 10 stars from me“

“Good food from the restaurant. The bakery didn't have much to offer was told I had to come back in afternoon for their pan frances which is strange because I feel it's something that should have been available as it was only 10am on a Monday. What I did buy was good though. I was not disappointed.“

“(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.“

“Very good service... I highly recommend the place...“

“I don’t usually write reviews, but I had to share how exceptional the service was today. I visited the Deer Park store with my son, and when he had a meltdown over losing his favorite toy, the crew member (Sri) went above and beyond. She directed us to a quiet area to help calm him down, then checked in on us with a thoughtful gift for my son, which made his day (it was his birthday!). She was kind, empathetic, and made us feel so comfortable. Thank you, Sri, for making this experience so special!“
