Where is the Best Bakery in Chicago, Illinois?
For my recent wedding in June, I asked Amy to create a surprise groom’s cake for my future husband. An avid fan of Star Wars, Amy and I worked together to identify the character that would be best featured in cake form. We chose R2D2 and I came to grips that there would be a Star Wars character at my wedding. When my husband and I arrived at the reception, R2 was the first thing I saw when I entered. My husband and I actually screamed when we saw him. This cake was BEYOND my expectation. The detail put into this cake was superior to anything I’ve seen. The colors were exact. The form of the robot was so realistic, my husband didn’t realize it was a cake! This cake was the hit of the wedding. We didn’t take the top of our actual wedding cake home, but did take R2 home (he was so fantastic, we wouldn’t let anyone cut and eat him). Amy is absolutely wonderful at making cakes come to life. Her creativity and attention to detail is second to none. The cake and frosting itself
I had never heard of this wonderful bakery before last Saturday when I stopped upon seeing a packed parking lot. I purchased their great Apple crumb pie with carmel topping . What an excellent dessert – it far exceeded any bakery product in taste and freshness I think I have ever eaten. Absolutely delicious! As I waited in line I saw many happy customers who had arrived to pick up their special order cakes and desserts, and many others who came to buy the great donuts, coffee cakes and breads they offer as standard bakery items. It was worth every minute of the wait and I would make a special trip from Chicago to get this terrific apple crumb pie again.Pros + Thumbs up for taste, presentation and priceCons – None
