About Lovin Oven Cakery

Lovin Oven Cakery

Since 1930, our family has been baking quality products for dessert lovers like you. Our story begins with my father-in-law, John Slove, being hired to work as an apprentice in a Chicago bakery. While there he learned everything there is to know about baking. Then, in 1946, he and my mother-in-law, Grace, opened their own bakery on Diversey Avenue in Chicago – Slove Bakery. Their goal was to produce great quality desserts and provide excellent customer service: he did the baking; she the handshaking. Through hard work and determination, they grew the business and the bakery’s reputation as one of the finest in the Chicagoland area.

    The Lovin Oven Cakery was a fantastic choice for our wedding cake and desserts. From the very beginning, their communication was quick, professional, and clear - making the process seamless. The quality of their work was truly exceptional, with beautifully detailed and personal designs. Our family has had cakes from them for years, and they were even able to deliver all the way to our wedding in Wisconsin. We've heard nothing but rave reviews from our guests, and some are even considering driving down just to try more of their delicious creations. Lovin Oven Cakery made our special day even sweeter!

    I have so many wonderful things to say about Lovin Oven Cakery. From their professionalism in answering all of our questions to their ability to work within our budget, they were absolutely fantastic. Stephanie created a fun atmosphere while we were selecting flavors and styles. It’s truly a positive memory that my husband and I will cherish forever. And I can’t forget to mention how delicious the cake was! It was moist, and the flavors were fresh and delightful. You will not be disappointed if you hire them.

    Our cake was STUNNING and everyone kept commenting on how great it tasted. I still have people begging me to find out the recipe for their buttercream frosting lol.

    Lovin Oven Cakery was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding. From the beginning, they were incredibly responsive and organized in their communication, making selecting and customizing our cake a breeze. The final product was a true work of art—a stunning four-tiered, multi-flavored masterpiece that was easy on the eyes and yummy for our tummies! Their creativity and attention to detail truly shone through, and we received so many compliments from our guests on how amazing the cake tasted. All of this coupled with a complimentary recreation of the top tier of your wedding cake on your first anniversary makes Lovin Oven THE BEST.
