Sweet Mandy B's

tle spooky-themed being in late October, and Sweet Mandy B's was able to do Halloween sprinkles and colors on most of the desserts! Most of all, they were all delicious and our guests loved them. Communication and payment was all a breeze, as well. Thanks for everything!

. Over the phone, I ordered a three-tier lemon cake with raspberry preserves, yellow cake with chocolate buttercream, and a small gluten free cake with fresh berries, and two vegan cupcakes for around $800 (super affordable for Chicago wedding). The decoration on the tier cake was simple white frosting and our florist put fresh tropical flowers on at the venue. Everyone raved about the cakes!!! They also give you some cupcakes to taste test before you order!

! So tasty and all of our guests are still raving about it. Can’t wait for our next cake for my birthday!

son wedding. It was perfect! They delivered to our venue and were so easy to work with. Many of our guests complimented the taste, and funfetti was a unique touch for our wedding. We LOVE SWB!

mpared to them and the cake tasted 100x better. We ended up ordering a snickerdoodle cake with cream cheese frosting and were so impressed, we loved it and guests also loved it!! A few helpful details: SMB's tasting was super easy, I called ahead and we picked up their standard tasting sampler of 6 popular flavors with 2 additional I requested, then picked up the cupcakes and their information packet. SMB's doesn't appear to do business over email, so I had to call them every time to discuss my order, but they were very accessible and I didn't mind having to call instead of email. Also, we selected a design with ribbon on the bottom of each tier, so I purchased the ribbon and dropped off at the store a week or two before the wedding.

as. It also looked beautiful in our ballroom and really topped off the aesthetic, definitely recommend!

one was raving about how it tasted.

were very responsive and we appreciated their flexibility when we had to change our wedding date because of the pandemic. Overall, their prices are reasonable and our guests raved about the two cakes we had at our wedding.

cake was a huge hit with guests. Some asked if they could have two pieces! Definitely recommend Sweet Mandy B’s for your cake!

de later. We set up a time to come in for a complimentary tasting and consultation which was a treat in itself. An associate talked us through the packages and what we wanted for our wedding day, had us taste test tons of flavors (we got to take home leftovers!) and helped us design our sweets table which ended up being made up of a myriad of cookies and cupcakes as well as a small cake for us to cut. We were able to choose a cake design we liked off Pinterest and their pastry chefs brought it to life beautifully. Sweet Mandy B’s even let us adjust our order quantity when our RSVP’s started to come in which was really helpful since we had overestimated our guest count and they helped us come up with a reasonable amount of treats for our guests without being pushy. They delivered our desserts seamlessly day of and our sweets table was a huge hit, with guests devouring all (literally ALL!!) of the desserts we had ordered (we ordered 120 cookies and 120 cupcakes for 130 people). If you’re looking for an authentic Chicago bakery with amazing flavor and variety, look no further!

out of this world! Thank you Sweet Mandy B's team for the BEST wedding cake we could have ever dreamed of!

a refund on my credit card. With the expense of weddings, I would not have noticed an extra $8. But because of that honesty, I have and will continue to only go to Sweet Mandy B's for all future cake and cookie needs.

fferent flavor combos to take home and try (including a few special requests.) We ended up going with a two-tier cake. Both flavors were delicious. The design was simple, but went perfectly with our wedding aesthetic. The price point was very fair given the quality of the cake. Would recommend.

kinds of wedding cake and cookies, and everyone loved every single option. People are still talking about how it was the best cake they've had at a wedding! Coming home from our honeymoon was made easier knowing that we had some cake in the freezer waiting for us!

reat options. They were easy to work with for the wedding, and everything turned out perfectly!

most reasonable price I saw when looking into cakes and Chicago area bakeries. Also, the tasting was so fun! The shop is adorable and they have a small corner booth where they set you up with cupcakes so you can try the different flavors. We ended up ordering a small two-tier cutting cake and then two full sheet cakes and one half sheet cake for our wedding with about 170 people. My favorite flavors were strawberry and funfetti. They were incredibly easy to work with over phone and email, and again, you will not find a better product at this price point. And I would know, because I literally looked up information for every since vendor in this town I think...

did a tasting earlier than needed around November and settled on SMB for our tiered wedding cake. I was ready to place my order soon after our tasting. However, we were told to place our order 2-3 mo prior to our wedding and this would be fine. I started communicating again in February regarding our end of May wedding and then within a week or two I was told our date had booked up! Luckily, they were able to squeeze us in, but had they not, I would have been sorely disappointed. There was no need for this added stress as I had made my decisions and was ready to sign up/pay months prior! I wish they had just kept me posted that the date was booking up and I needed to put my deposit in ASAP or allowed me to place my order months prior as I had intended! Anyways, despite the rocky start, everything after that went without a hitch! We did a small 2 tiered cake with gold leaf foil and it was exactly what I wanted! We ordered lemon cake with vanilla buttercream and almond cake with vanilla buttercream (which is not a standard tasting flavor) and they were both amazing. All of the guests were raving! Because of a unrelated snafu, we had a lot of excess cake left, which I took to work. Many people came up to me and told me it was the best cake they have ever had. I tend to agree!! I have used SMB for birthdays and other occasions and am happy that I was able to use them for my wedding. I will continue to be a loyal customer!

it from there. They delivered to the venue, coordinated with our caterer for serving everything, and gave us exactly what we asked for in terms of the pies we'd ordered. Everyone raved about our wedding pies, so I couldn't ask for more. Highly recommend Sweet Mandy B's!
