My husband and I loved working with sugargoat for our wedding. As someone who doesn’t love cake but wanted the traditional experience of a cake cutting - I reached out to sugargoat to coordinate a tasting as I was intrigued by their adventurous flavors. We were able to set up a tasting quickly - the tasting consisted of their traditional flavors and a custom flavor that my husband and I came up with on our own - Peanut Butter, Jelly, Potato Chip. The bakery turned our flavor into the most delicious cupcake, so of course we included it as one of the layers in our wedding cake. I emailed inspiration photos of how I wanted our cake to look, and the team at sugargoat exceeded our expectations. Everyone was kind, and we loved communicating with Brennan. The team at sugargoat seemed genuinely excited about our wedding and our cake, it was nice to feel a personal connection with them vs. feeling like a number to them. Sadly on our wedding day, we did not have a piece of cake saved for her to eat, so I reached out to Brennan and they were able to make us a small cake of our custom flavor which we could eat on our Anniversary. 10/10

Bartleby's Homemade Ice Cream 

5.0

  • Starts at $64
  • Serves Gurnee, IL

Bartleby's Homemade Ice Cream evolved from Bartleby’s Ice Cream Cakes, a company I founded in 2019 that sold handmade, gourmet ice cream cakes through its website. With the opening of our beautiful brick-and-mortar, we’re excited to offer classic hand-dipped cones, sundaes, and shakes, while continuing to make ice cream cakes for all your special occasions (because ice cream cake IS the best cake).

We had ordered Bartleby’s prior to our wedding for other special occasions locally, but hadn’t shipped their products before. Based on our previous deliveries we were confident that Rachel and team could deliver the quality we’d come to expect for our destination wedding. We’re happy to say they did not disappoint and guests at our wedding still talk about the ice cream cake we served as one of the highlights of the night. Thank you again Rachel and team!

Nadiya's Cupcakes

  • Serves Gurnee, IL

Nadiya’s Cupcakes is a small business wedding cake bakery with an organic cake design style and a European-inspired cake flavor menu. Your wedding details are the most important ingredients in achieving your ultimate wedding cake vision, and you are part of every step to personalize it. Our cakes come tall and our specialty is buttercream; we do not use fondant. We love using fresh fruit and high quality raw ingredients to produce balanced flavors that have just the right amount of sweetness while retaining their natural, key-note taste; you and your family won't feel guilty going for a second slice, we promise.

Nadiya's Cupcakes was a pleasure to work with for our wedding desserts. From the start, their communication was prompt, transparent and collaborative - they worked closely with us to bring our vision to life. The quality of their work was exactly as expected, with beautifully artistic cupcakes and cakes that fit our theme perfectly. They explained what was realistic for our budget and made changes as needed. Nadiya's helped make our special day even more perfect with their reasonable pricing and excellent service. We highly recommend them to any couple planning their wedding.

Hello future brides! I'm Audrey O'Shanna, owner and operator of Windy City Cookies. I specialize in custom sugar cookies. From favors to bachelorette parties, showers, and every event in-between. I love taking your vision and bringing it to life in the most delicious way! Fun fact about me, I took 1st place in the pastry division at "The Chicago's Best Baker" competition in 2018!

We had Windy City Cookies make these beautiful cookies for a graduation party. They were the perfect graduation theme cookies , and I asked her to individually wrap them with for me. They were beautiful—everyone loved them! I heard from reliable sources that they tasted delicious, too. Sadly, I did not have any of the cookies for myself. Hopefully next time!

Welcome to Molly's Cupcakes! Ms. Molly was my third-grade teacher. Whenever my classmates or I had a birthday, she would bake us cupcakes. She had her special recipe for chocolate and vanilla cupcakes. In honor of Molly and as a way to help our kids and community, a portion of our profits is donated directly to schools in our community. Every time you eat a cupcake or sip a latte, you help our kids. So eat up!

Molly's Cupcakes was a delight to work with for our wedding! Their communication style was very responsive and organized throughout the planning process, which we greatly appreciated during the hectic wedding preparations. The cupcakes they created for our big day were simply delicious and a true crowd favorite amongst our guests - we heard raving reviews from multiple people about how tasty they were! We had three flavors (red velvet, chocolate, and peach cobbler) and they all turned out incredibly moist and flavorful. Molly's also handled the delivery and set-up with total ease. Overall, we were thrilled that we chose Molly's to provide the cupcakes for our wedding - their team was a dream to work with and their products brought so much joy to our guests. We would enthusiastically recommend them to any engaged couple looking for a talented, responsive baker to contribute something sweet to their special day!

Awarded Best of Zola
We had our wedding reception at a brewery and wanted some easy to eat sweet and salty snacks. These popcorn flavors were delicious, they sent us flavors to try before we decided. We chose 4 flavors and they shipped them right to our house. The popcorn buckets had our cute custom labels which they designed for us and looked PERFECT! We had tons of compliments on the popcorn. We ordered plenty and people were grabbing them to take home at the end of the night. A perfect snack after a few beers. Theu were very fast with the samples and the order too!
