Custom Cakes near Wood Dale, IL

“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!“

“It’s no surprise that there is are all 5 star reviews. One of the best cakes I’ve had. I planned an office event in February highlighting black owned businesses and last minute found this bakery. I came towards the end of the day so the only thing available was a frozen cake. I was definitely skeptical but the cashier said it would taste just fine once let it sit out a bit. It was so moist, it was amazing. 10/10 that was a frozen cake so I can only imagine what the fresh cupcakes taste like.“

“I just wanted to say that the cake was beyond expectations and it was really delicious. Filling was perfect with coconut and pineapple and other layer was butterscotch. The cake got so many compliments from friends and family. Decoration was perfect as I wanted to . Can’t wait to order it more . Thank you again.“

“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!“

“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.“

“I found Victoria through a google search because my husband and I were looking for a small wedding cake to present at our wedding that we just recently had June 4th 2021. Victoria was very helpful and a joy to work with. I knew what I wanted from the start but she was available for any questions I needed through email and phone no matter how late. Our cake was delicious and turned how I imagined.“

“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.“

“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!“

“This place is such a hidden gem that I don’t want to share it with anyone, but I will because this place is truly so special you need to experience it to see.The Bakester is a beautiful cafe with a lovely European feel inside. I place my order at the front register with the owner or other staff. Her cafe latte is the perfect combination of milk and espresso. I also like her teas! I always order a quiche, if there are any left when I show up. My go-to is the spinach and cheese. The mushroom and Swiss is absolutely delicious and that’s is my favorite! I also get one of her fluffy, buttery croissants.If you dine in, like me, they will bring your order out to you in tea cups and coffee cups with saucers. The food is beautifully plated and service is great.I’ve never had anything bad at The Bakester and don’t ever think I will. I’m looking forward to doing high tea one day when finger sandwiches and works!Parking: Free parking on the street and there’s a lot nearby too“

“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.“

“This is the best ice cream in the area and there is no competition that is close. The cookies and cream is perfect and butter pecan is nostalgic. I wish they took recommendations like the pints said but there isn’t a way to contact them. We want more salty flavors!!!!!Go here! You won’t regret it!“

“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.“
