Calumet Bakery

even added our initials "carved" into the tree and a few flowers at the base. The cake tasting process was wonderful too! We felt like we knew exactly what we wanted after our tasting session. They give you huge pieces to try - come prepared to take home the leftovers! The only thing I would say is be careful if your wedding is on a Sunday. We got married on a Sunday, so we had to pick up the cake on Saturday (since the store is closed on Sunday). The line was crazy long to pick up - wrapped around the building, and even though we had a specified time to pick up, we still had to wait a very long time! Try to do delivery if possible! Thank you, Calumet Bakery, for an absolutely beautiful and delicious cake that tied our wedding theme together!

. We would 100% buy from Calumet Bakery again.

s reasonable and I would definitely go back for any other bakery needs.

desmaids had to get on the phone with Calumet bakery and some pictures had to be postponed due to this. Calumet bakery did not seem very sorry that they did not deliver the cake. Eventually someone was sent out to deliver the cake hours late. When approached today they did minimal to reimburse me for all the havoc they caused on my wedding day. I will never order a cake from there again.

sheet cake to be sliced for guests to enjoy. A much more affordable option and allows your guests to have a cake with buttercream frosting which is much more yummy than fondant. We went with a marble cake and strawberry filling, yum! They also provided some complimentary donuts for our catering team which I thought was a very thoughtful gesture. Affordable prices compared to the city and delivered to the West Loop of Chicago with no issues. Highly recommend!

lemon & vanilla custard. A 3 Tier with a full sheet in the kitchen.

ed on time, just as we envisioned and even more delicious

pre-made and not as favlorful or moist.

eting was well organized and they didn’t skimp on the tasting portions which we appreciated since the other bakery only gave us a bite between 3 people. My only disappointment was that we were told that if our florist left the flowers that the delivery person would put them on our cake. Right before our ceremony we had to scramble to get the flowers on the cake before the guests arrived. It was just an added stress that could have been avoided. The cake, however, was amazing! We chose the fantasy fluff and can’t wait to enjoy it again for our anniversary.

had a three tier cake, with sheet cakes in the back. Prices are reasonable. Definitely will use again!

the phone every time we had a question were short with us. I nearly didn't go with them because of their customer service. Cassidy, the wedding coordinator for them is who kept me there. She is super friendly and she worked around our schedule.

st a doughnut or a wedding cake. Love them!

ling, and so tasty! I am really excited for our first anniversary when they will provide us with a small cake, since we all know freezing your top layer of your cake never is good.

y and a discount as well!!

eing a great business, busy with lots of happy customers. I would definitely give Calumet Bakery an A+ rating to anyone looking for both a delicious and beautiful cake.

ived a card in our mailbox from Calumet Bakery and I called. They won me over when I asked if they did tasting's and they said we don't make wedding cakes without a tasting, when other places I looked into didn't. We went in for cake tasting and fell in love. The consultant was Dora and she was very real and explained everything we needed to know. Also the cake was great and we didn't have a piece left after the wedding... Great place to make your dreams come true and they were on time, cake was there before me!!!! Highly recommend...

for us to taste. They were very moist and tasty. We worked with one of the bakers to design our cake and get the colors exactly how I wanted them. After we ordered the cake and had everything set up, I emailed Kerry to request a grooms cake. I saw a picture of a grooms cake that I thought was so cute. Kerry assured me they could make the cake with the design I chose. On the day of, when I saw my cake sitting in the middle of the dance floor, I was in awe. It was so beautiful and was even more beautiful than the cake I envisioned. It was perfect! And the grooms cake was a nice surprise for everyone and my husband who was in shock. We received rave reviews on the taste of the cake and how beautiful it was. We went with 4 different cake flavors- Carrot, Chocolate, Red Velvet, White cake with Strawberries and custard. I wish I had some now!! They were awesome!

f cakes to help us choose which one we wanted for our cake. We already had an idea in mind of what we wanted our cake to look like, and they did a fantastic job of creating exactly what we had envisioned. Our cake was gorgeous on our wedding day and we are still getting compliments on how beautiful it was, and how great it tasted. We will continue to come back to Calumet Bakery!

. Some friends and family have complained about organization. It is true they are not obsessive with details but they more than make up for it with quality and extras!! We also had them do our dessert table and showers with mini desserts and people raved and raved!!!

that was great!

I just wanted a 2 layer cake. She called the decorator up front so that I could talk to her in person. I explained what I wanted, ivory and bright colors, the decorator was very helpful and made some great suggestions. My fiance picked up the cake the day of the wedding and brought it to the hall, when we took it out of the box. It was WAY more than I had expected. Ivory frosting with bright fowers in different shapes and sizes trailing down the side of the cake. The price was also way less than I had expected to pay after speaking to other brides. The cake was absolutely delicious!

edding. Our consultant was very friendly and knowledgeable; she was the one who would actually do our cake. She brought us several samples, and they were all absolutely delicious – the chocolate with mocha filling was what we eventually decided upon, though everything else was wonderful too (especially the red velvet!). I brought in a picture to show what I generally wanted for my cake, and it turns out they had a picture in one of their catalogues of what I wanted (a 3-tiered, round cake with cherry blossom branches). Our consultant gave us various options based on how many guests we thought we would have. Once we were finished, all we had to do was pay a deposit on the way out and bring in a swatch of the color for the outside of the cake. The cake turned out so much more beautiful than I even imagined! It was delivered to my reception site before I even got there, so there was no stress in wondering where my cake was. It tasted amazing, and my guests really enjoyed it. I would highly recommend Calumet Bakery for any couple looking for a bakery to do their wedding cake.

boxed up the left-overs for me to take home. I brought in a picture of what I wanted my cake to look like and it was perfect!! I even dropped off flowers at the last minute to have them put on the cake and it wasn't a problem.

The guest loved the cake and we had no left overs! Perfect!!!

ht. The design of the cake was the highlight of the reception. I really loved it!

tations and of course it tasted great too. It was really the only thing I actually ate on my wedding night.
