The cake speaks for itself! We had so many compliments on both the classic cheesecakes and the grooms cake (buttercream and Genoa). The only reason for the less than perfect rating...
, was the script of “just married” that we requested on our cutting cake. Unfortunately it was missed. Other than that, our experience working with Amy and the team to design and order was great! I will always recommend the cheesecakes at Simmas!
Delicious cake. From the initial consultation and tasting to pick up everything was great.
Simma’s is well known for a reason. From the initial meeting in-person to talk through our vision for a wedding cake, to the actual sampling and going over options, Peggy and the S...
imma’s team made us feel like we were in good hands. We decided to go with a two-tier cheesecake with a chocolate base, raspberry filling, and chocolate ganache for our wedding cake and it was probably the best cheesecake we have ever had. The cake was perfectly light and the right level of sweetness. The whole process of ordering the cake and standing to scheduling a pick-up/drop-off time and instructions for cutting was so simple, it allowed us to go into our day so confident that everything had been taken care of. Simma’s delicious cakes and quality service make this bakery essential for your next event or wedding.
Literally the best cake I've ever had. Peggy is awesome!
Simma’s made our wedding cake, and it was absolutely delicious! Every guest loved it, and we’ve been getting so many compliments about how amazing it was. We can’t wait to cut into...

Everyone who recommended Simma’s to us was 100% right, they are truly the best! We’re so happy we chose them for our special day.

tover that they boxed them up for us to take home. Our cake was beautiful and exactly what we hoped for. Each year we'll be going back to get a lemon mousse for our wedding anniversaries.
Simma's was really great about communicating. We were super impressed at our tasting and chose them right away for our cake! They helped talk us through our options and what would ...
work best for our cake type and guest count. Being able to finalize details just two-three weeks ahead of time also put my mind at ease as it gave me a little more time to organize my final numbers. My husband and I loved the cake and a number of our guests commented on it as well. Couldn't be happier with our choice in bakery!
Peggy also gave me some great advice regarding the cake topper and putting flowers on our cake!
Peggy was also able to refer us to another bakery that had gluten and dairy free options for our guests!
Simma's created our dream 5-tier wedding cake! We had a wonderful time doing the tasting with Peggy and picked the genoise cake with fresh strawberries and white chocolate ganache....
One of our guests who is with the Food Network commented specifically on how amazing our cake was. On top of the taste, it was BEAUTIFUL! We had alternating gold foil and white swiss dot tiers, and our florist was able to add fresh flowers to the top and bottom. We'll add a photo to this review when we have our professional photos back. The love that Peggy has for her cakes and her wedding couples is unmatched. Thank you Peggy and Simma's!
We were SO happy with our cake from Simma's for our wedding. We did lemon mouse and poppyseed as well as strawberry mouse cakes and all our guests raved about them both. Our weddi...
ng cake was a cheesecake and it was equally amazing. We also ordered some cannoli which never disappoint either. Always recommend Simma's for any cake/pastry needs!

on to life. From the cake tasting (which was such a fun and delicious experience!) to the big day itself, everything was seamless. The cake looked beautiful and tasted even better. Our guests are still talking about how much they loved it — truly one of the highlights of the reception. We’re so grateful to Peggy and the entire Simma’s team for making such a special part of our day perfect. Highly, highly recommend!

Out of the cake tastings we did while trying to decide on a baker, Simma's was the best tasting! The cakes were moist and made up of 5 layers, which set them apart from your standa...
rd cake. We went with a 3-tiered white traditional presentation cake along with two 1/2 sheet cakes. Simma's offers a lot of cake flavors, fillings and frostings, so they are great for customization. I'm rating them a 4/5 because we weren't able to represent our dog figurine in the cake the way that we wanted to - they would not place a dog figurine purchased off of Etsy in the cake, but would make one out of fondant themselves and place it, which was ultimately not the look we were going for. But overall, for the great taste and look of the cake, I would choose Simma's again!
Delicious, elegant, beautiful! We loved our cake and cupcakes and so did all of our guests!!
Simma’s did an outstanding job with our wedding cake!
We felt so lucky to be able to book Simma's bakery for our wedding cake. They put together a wonderful tasting experience that was one of the highlights of the wedding planning pro...
cess for me. Trinity took very detailed notes. We picked the marble cake with European vanilla buttercream frosting with raspberry and chocolate mousse. The cake itself looked beautiful and was delicious. So many guests commented on how great the cake was and hardly any was left by the end of the evening. Thank you again for helping make our day so sweet.

CUSTOM CAKE FOR MY DAUGHTERS 15TH BIRTHDAY IT WAS A SMASH! EVERYONE KEPT COMPLEMENTING IT AND ASKING WHERE WE GOT IT FROM I HIGHLY RECOMEND
We booked Simma's for our wedding cake and absolutely loved the decorations and flavors that we ended up choosing. Everyone raved about how good the cake was! Only thing is that co...
mmunication is lacking a bit. I had to email and call multiple times over the course of a few weeks until I finally got in contact with someone. I understand that they're incredibly busy, but I would have appreciated at least a simple response of "we got your message, we'll reach out as soon as we can" instead of getting 3 weeks of silence.
we went a little crazy and had different flavors and fillings for different layers of the cake, they did amazing decorative work and the cake was delicious!!
Simma’s Bakery does not disappoint! The cake, cheesecake, cupcakes, and cookies were delicious! We had more than enough desserts for the number of guests we had, yet the dessert ta...

Simma’s bakery provided two delicious cakes for our wedding this past August. Their expertise showed when they had all the details ready for us at our tasting, and we fell in love ...
with their flavors as well. So many of our guests commented on how excited they were to have a chocolate espresso wedding cake. We asked for a simple frosted cake decorated with fresh flowers, and Simma’s was happy to coordinate with our florist on the decorations. Overall, our cakes were executed wonderfully, and we cannot wait to pull our final slices out for our anniversary next August. We would definitely recommend working with Simma’s for anyone’s upcoming weddings.
They were so nice and helpful until there was an issue with my cake Wedding was 09/03/2022 I contacted them on their next business day. I advised Meredith that the cake did NOT ta...
ste as it did at the tasting she said she would call me back..2 day went by without a call. I called them back, they wanted a sample of the cake I brought them 1 1/2 of the cake they said they would get with their team and call back, that didn't happen, 24 hours later I call them back and spoke with Peggy an was told they tasted a cake that was 6 days old and nothing was wrong with the cake and sometimes people try returning the cake after the couples do not eat it all at the wedding. For the record I love love love cakes cupcakes, little Debbie cakes you name it an would/could eat most of the cake alone l also have 7 year old twins that loves cake an they would probably eat the rest lol but they also didn't like it.. My twins came with me to return the cake and she screams out " that cake was nasty"
After speaking with Peggy, I felt like they didn't believe me an calling me a liar. I'm a christians women that believes in GOD and my spirit does not operate that way..They kept the cake and told me they could give me a 8"cake. NO! I will NEVER patronize your bakery again! Please be careful of the fake smiles and lovely attitudes! (I really thought they cared about making this cake an me having the best experience ever. Boy, was I wrong!
The dog ate the wedding cake!!!
This past weekend was my brother-in-law’s wedding. For some reason, we had the cake that my wife’s aunt made at our house the night before the wedd...
ing and were responsible for its care and transport to the reception venue (why…?). The night of the rehearsal, I had decided to bite the bullet and take my 1-year old daughter home so my wife could enjoy the rehearsal dinner without worrying about her. When I got home, I let the dog out of her cage and walked upstairs for bedtime stories. Finally getting my daughter to sleep, I went down to make dinner, watch some tv, etc… After about 30 minutes, I noticed my dog was acting a little guilty about something. I thought maybe she had an accident or something so I did a quick spin around and didn’t notice anything. Then I looked at the table… Where there was a ravaged wedding cake top and cake crumbles everywhere. I felt like the camera of life zoomed in on my realization of what happened… Terrified and furious, I put/threw my dog into her cage, and did what any 35 year-old American male would do, alone, in a cake related emergency… “Call Mom!”…
It took a few minutes to get my mother to stop laughing at my cliché wedding-movie problem… Wiping the tears from her eyes she told me she would call back in a few minutes. Within 15 minutes, I was texting the on-call Simmas bakery owner who was available using the “Wedding Cake Emergency Hotline” (yeah… I didn’t know that was a thing either). I gave him the specs of the cake-top using my tape measure and some pictures and he said they will get on it in the morning.
First thing the next day, the baker let me know the cake was ready. It was perfect. Texture, buttercream frosting, size, everything. As a note, Simmas did not make the original cake, their team is just extremely talented and worked ridiculously fast for some random guy whose 40-pound golden doodle got courageous. When I asked how much it was… The owner WAIVED THE FEE ENTIRELY!!! And said, just take a picture of the reaction (which I wasn’t present for sadly).
Just to clarify, my family has been going to Simmas for years because their cakes are amazing. The owner didn’t know who I was, but still saved a crucial part of a wedding. I always knew this bakery made amazing pastries and cakes, but now I know it’s run by a generous and wonderful team. I come from a very big family, and Simmas will be my, and more importantly my mom’s, grandma to 19 hungry children, go to bakery whenever the occasion calls. Thank you, Mark, Meredith, and the entire Simmas Family for saving the day!!!
PS: the dog is fine, and my wife’s aunt laughed about it (on the outside), so I think I’m in the clear… for now

licious! The raspberry filling with the mix of vanilla and chocolate layers was yummy... plus, the buttercream frosting is rich but oh so tasty! I was able to send a couple pictures of design ideas, and the final product turned out perfect. Looking forward to going back for our anniversary cake next year. :)

Simma's is my favorite bakery in the Milwaukee area so it was an easy decision to use them for our wedding cake. The tasting was impressive, we got huge pieces of cake to try (and ...
take home). They have so many flavors/combinations. We ended up going with a marble cake with chocolate mousse filling and it was absolutely delicious. We had multiple people telling us it was the best wedding cake they've ever had. The design of the cake was spot on an gorgeous, I was obsessed with how it looked and tasted!
We got married at The Ivy House on April 16, 2022. We did popsicles as a dessert for our guests, but we still wanted a traditional cake for ourselves and our wedding party. Simma’s...
is our favorite bakery in the area, so this was a no-brainer when we decided on having a cake. We went in for a tasting which answered all of our questions and was extremely helpful to the process. It was pretty hard to narrow it down to one flavor, but we eventually agreed on a delicious combination!
We did a two-tier cake with fresh strawberries inside and blue painted decor to match our wedding colors. The cake arrived on time and in perfect condition. Everyone said it was delicious! We decided to save the top part and freeze it so we can enjoy it on our year anniversary. I can’t wait to eat more of it! Simma’s has a huge variety of flavors and options. You will not be disappointed in whatever you order from them! Best desserts around!
We got a small cutting cake from Simma's and were so impressed with the design! I shared 1 inspiration picture and they helped with suggestions based on what would work best while ...
still making sure my vision came to life. Communication leading up to our wedding day and day of delivery want so smoothly. Highly suggest Simma's for any couples looking for unique cutting cake!
We absolutely LOVED our wedding cake! We chose a 4 tiered cake with 2 different flavors. We also had sheet cakes to have enough cake for all our guests. As always, the cake was DEL...
ICOUS! I wish we would've taken all the extras. We did not have any issue with delivery or set-up. My florist added a few flowers as well. If I would do it over again, I would still use this bakery 100%.

Always delicious, amazing cheesecakes. We didn’t have any cake left over at the end of the night, and were told later that guests had gone up for seconds and thirds to try all the ...
flavors of cheesecake we had displayed. The small two tier cake was sweet, with buttercream icing smooth on top and spiral granny iced on the bottom - with our florist/planner placing flowers on it too.
My daughter lives in Chicago and was planning a wedding in Milwaukee. Needless to say, it's hard to choose a bakery when you know nothing about it. Simma's Bakery was so easy to ...
work with. They worked with the florist to produce a cake with some of the wedding flowers. The cake was simple, but elegant. I am not a fan of sweets, but that cake was the best I have ever tasted! It was moist with layers of amazing filling. I don't often find wedding cakes to be very tasty and often it is an afterthought. This cake was the main event!!! Thank you, Simma's, for helping make the wedding a huge success!
Everyone at our wedding loved our cake and couldn't stop asking me where we got it! Simma's is the best choice for any wedding cake needs you have!

I have never been a cake person. For years I said that when I got married I wanted to have cherry pie instead. However, I fell in love with a cake-lover and caved to his wish to...
have a traditional tiered wedding cake. It was the best wedding planning decision we made. Our cake from Simma's (chocolate with raspberry Chambord mousse and fresh raspberries, simple white buttercream frosting) was hands down the best wedding cake I've ever tasted. Unbelievably delicious. I don't know how I'm going to wait a whole year to have our anniversary cake! On top of that, everyone there was very friendly and helpful, including when we had to postpone our wedding due to COVID. I also found their prices to be very reasonable (though of course wedding cakes don't come cheap), particularly compared to other highly rated cake bakers in the area. 100% recommend.
Simma's is a Milwaukee classic and will wow your guests! During the pandemic times, we got a 6'' cut cake (VERY reasonable) as well as individually boxed cheesecake squares for eac...
