Sweet Mandy B's

Cakes are my husband's favorite type of dessert, so our wedding cake was definitely a priority. We have used Sweet Mandy B’s for previous cakes so we definitely wanted to use them again. We were blown away by how delicious the wedding cake was! So tasty and all of our guests are still raving about it. Can’t wait for our next cake for my birthday!

We hired Sweet Mandy B's for our wedding cake and we could not be happier! They were very friendly and communicative from the beginning . We ordered two different flavors, chocolate with chocolate buttercream and a vanilla with a strawberry buttercream and white buttercream on the outside. It was so delicious and everyone raved about the cake. We could not recommend SWB enough!

We couldn't be happier with choosing Sweet Mandy B's to supply our wedding cake. All of our guests raved about how delicious it was. Their carrot cake is possibly the best carrot cake we've ever had. Future birthdays and anniversaries will definitely include Sweet Mandy B's. Our new favorite bakery! Photo By: Ashlyn Henry

Sweet Mandy B's was the BEST for our wedding!! The cake not only tasted amazing, but looked so beautiful as well. We wanted to save money by doing just a two tiered cake, and then they were able to do sheet cakes to have enough for our 300 person 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!

We ordered our wedding cake from Sweet Mandy B's and couldn't have been happier with our choice! We started our wedding cake search by tasting at another bakery in Chicago and were not impressed -- Sweet Mandy B's was surprisingly affordable compared 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.

We ordered our wedding cake from Sweet Mandy B's and it was delicious! The cake was beautifully decorated and absolutely delicious. The price was also very affordable. I'm so happy we went with Sweet Mandy B's!

I’ve lived in Chicago for 12 years now and I’ve always loved Sweet Mandy B’s. Their process was so easy right from the beginning, and the end product was better than I could have asked for! So many of our guests told us how delicious our cake was. It also looked beautiful in our ballroom and really topped off the aesthetic, definitely recommend!

We highly recommend booking Sweet Mandy B's for your wedding cake! Since living in Chicago, we have always frequented Sweet Mandy B's for birthdays and special treats, and their wedding cake did not disappoint! The cake was beautiful and everyone was raving about how it tasted.

The cake was absolutely delicious and looked beautiful. Would recommend going through them for your wedding or any other event!

We absolutely LOVED our gorgeous wedding cake from Sweet Mandy B's! Their staff was so helpful in creating exactly what we had hoped for and it was the most delicious cake we've ever had! Everything was perfect!

Sweet Mandy B's provided the cake for our August 2021 wedding and it was absolutely delicious!!

Sweet Mandy B’s cake tasting was a simple but fun experience - they provide you with a platter of different cupcake flavors to help you get an idea of what type of cake you’d like to serve at your wedding. Throughout the planning process, they 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.

Sweet Mandy B's is one of our favorite bakeries in Chicago. Our cake was delicious and we received several compliments! The ordering and delivery process were flawless as well. Thank you Sweet Mandy B's!

We love Sweet Mandy B’s so it was a no brainer to get our wedding cake through them. We ordered in January 2020 for a September 2020 wedding. They were flexible in letting us change the contract to what we needed. The cake tasting was fun, and cake was a huge hit with guests. Some asked if they could have two pieces! Definitely recommend Sweet Mandy B’s for your cake!

My husband and I wanted a local Chicago bakery to do our desserts and Sweet Mandy B’s seemed the perfect fit. Years ago, we’d grab cupcakes from them when I was in undergrad at DePaul so it only seemed fitting to have them do our wedding a decade 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!

As a dessert lover, you CAN'T go wrong with having Sweet Mandy B's for your wedding cake! From the tasting, to the final product, our guests were literally begging to take the (very few) leftovers home with them! Our 3 tiered, 3 flavor cake was out of this world! Thank you Sweet Mandy B's team for the BEST wedding cake we could have ever dreamed of!

Not only was their cake beautiful and delicious, but it was also one of the more affordable bakeries in the Chicago-area. What really wowed me though was that they realized they overcharged me by $8, emailed me a sincere apology and then issued 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.

My husband and I chose donuts for the main dessert at our wedding, but we still wanted a small wedding cake to cut as well. We're so happy we chose this bakery. The tasting process was simple--the bakery gave us a wide array of cupcakes with different 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.

Sweet Mandy B's was great to work with! They provided a huge variety of options in the tasting we had with them, and allowed us to mix and match frosting and cake types. Eventually, they helped create a custom package that combined 2 different 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!

Sweet Mandy B's is our favorite bakery in the city, so it was a no brainer to have them a part of our wedding. The tasting was a fun experience and we ended up getting a bunch of mini items (cupcakes, cookies, bars), because they have so many great options. They were easy to work with for the wedding, and everything turned out perfectly!

Working with Sweet Mandy B's for our wedding cake was a dream - seriously, it was so easy. They have every flavor, frosting, and cake type listed and priced online so you can get a sense of the price point...which, by the way, is hands-down the 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...

Sweet Mandy B's is one of my favorite Chicago bakeries and they did not disappoint for our wedding! There was a little rocky start as I had been communicating for approximately 4+ months regarding booking my cake order for our May wedding. We 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!

Sweet Mandy B's was a delight to work with from start to finish. Our tasting was easy to schedule and delicious to do, and that was honestly the last thing we had to do. I put them in contact with our caterer and venue and Sweet Mandy B's took 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!

Sweet Mandy B's never disappoints! The cake for our wedding was amazing! They were so easy to work with to design a 2 tier cake and the remainder we did sheet cakes. We got so many compliments all night of how this was the best the wedding cake! The caterer even saved the whole 2 tier cake and it held up fantastic to share for the few days!

Some people dream of a big fancy cake on their wedding day. My husband and I are not those people. We figured we'd just skip the cake cutting and serve everybody sheet cake from Cosco out of the back kitchen. Then about 3 weeks before our wedding, we were celebrating a coworker's birthday my office and I experienced SMB's "blueberry pancake" cake w/ maple frosting for the first time. I was smitten. Turns out, Sweet Mandy B's does sheet cake too and it's SUPER reasonably priced! I don't think a single one of our wedding guests noticed that we didn't "cut the cake" ....but they damn sure noticed the cake. 3 weeks later and we still have people raving to about us how delicious it was!!! Highly recommend. 10/10. 5 Gold stars. All the yummy :)

We chose Sweet Mandy B's because my husband's family always got their birthday cake there - and they did NOT disappoint when it came to our wedding! We served yellow cake with vanilla frosting and had rave reviews - people came up to us afterward asking who had done our cake, and even our other vendors were excited and said that Sweet Mandy B's has their favorite cakes in the city. We did a small cutting cake which was decorated beautifully. Overall, their prices were more than reasonable, they were easy to work with and accommodating for delivery and design requests, and we were so happy to continue the family tradition of celebrations with Sweet Mandy B's!

Sweet mandy B's is our favorite bakery in the city, so it was a no brainer to have them do our wedding cake and desserts. The cake came out perfect and delicious and our late night cupcakes were a huge hit! It was so easy and straightforward working with them and the day of delivery was seamless!

Sweet Many B's was a pleasure to work with! We wanted to find a cake that not only looked great, but also tasted delicious. We went in for a complimentary tasting where we met with their team and decided on a design and flavors. We ended up going with a two tired cake each with its own flavor (funfetti and lemon with raspberry preserves). The cake was beautiful and delicious! Our guests raved about it and said it was the best wedding cake they've ever tasted! Everyone went back for seconds or thirds. We already can't wait to go back in to get a mini version to enjoy on our anniversary.

We had a great experience with Sweet Mandy B's for our wedding cake and cupcakes! The tasting and ordering process was simple and quick and we could tell they were pros and were on top of our order. We ordered a small two-tier cake and then about 90 cupcakes for our guests. We were able to completely customize the cake and buttercream flavors of the cake and cupcakes as well as the style of the cake. Everything tasted delicious day of and we got great compliments. Sweet Mandy B's is the best!

We used Sweet Mandy B's for our wedding cupcakes and we couldn't have been happier! The cupcake bar was so cute and fun and the guest loved it! One of our guests said that it was the best cupcake he had ever had! It was really nice to have a variety of flavors so that everyone was happy and got what they wanted. We also had a small cake for us to cut during the ceremony and it was perfect. We would highly recommend sweet mandy b's for your wedding or event, and thank you for helping us make our wedding dreams come true! Haley & Joey

Sweet Mandy B’s created a beautiful wedding cake and cupcakes for us. Everything was delicious and our guests raved about it! Also, the prices are excellent and it was one of the only places that didn’t charge us a crazy amount just for a small wedding cake. They can’t be beat!

Sweet Mandy B's made our wedding cake with attention to all the details and specifics. It was so tasty!! I want to eat the top layer that's in the freezer early! They now offer delivery services which is convenient, but pricey. Otherwise the quality for the price of cake is unmatched.

Oh my gosh, booking Sweet Mandy B's for our wedding was a no-brainer. It has been mine and my husband's favorite bakery for years. We all know wedding cake can be bland and not memorable at all. Pieces with just one bite taken out of them are left at every seat. I almost didn't want to go sit down after cutting our cake. That first bite was so delicious, and I ended up eating two whole pieces later in the night. We went to a tasting just 3 months before our wedding date. They gave us a giant plate of cupcakes with every amazing flavor combo to try. I LOVED that we could pick 3 different flavors of cake! Every tier was a different flavor with a different filling as well. Ordering what we wanted was so easy. We sent Lauren an email with pictures of what we wanted it to look like, which flavors we chose, and what time they could deliver it to our venue. The price really cannot be beat either! I have a few coworkers getting married this year, and they were being quoted insanely high prices for wedding cakes. Now they are all going to use Sweet Mandy B's :-)

My family is obsessed with Sweet Mandy B's. We get their treats for all occasions in Chicago and even decided to have their cakes brought to Detroit for our wedding. Our guests RAVED about them. We had 4 flavors and all were stellar, as always.

Hubs and I wanted to serve cupcakes at our wedding (pretty to display, easy to grab, variety of options for guests), and we couldn't be happier with what we received from Sweet Mandy B's! The team was so helpful during the tasting, suggesting flavors that work well together, and they were able to coordinate frosting colors/sprinkles with the rest of our wedding aesthetic. PLUS they delivered to our venue despite its lengthy distance from the bakery (on a holiday weekend to boot!). Guests loved the cupcakes - we over-ordered, but they made an awesome after-party snack for everyone who hung out until the wee hours of the morning in the hotel lobby (that would've been impossible with a traditional cake). Also have to mention that they have delicious vegan cupcakes which was a deal-sealer for us as we are plant-based eaters. No bride or groom in Chicago can go wrong with Sweet Mandy B's!

We had Sweet Mandy B’s make several regular size cakes for our wedding day in lieu of one “wedding cake.” I was planning the wedding from a distance and they really made me feel cared for while planning out designs and flavors over the phone. The cake drop off and set up seemed to go perfectly because I never heard about it! Our guests LOVED the cakes and I received several compliments afterwards. I would 100% recommend Sweet Mandy B’s for wedding, events, or an afternoon treat ☺

We were surprised when we got a huge plate of cupcakes to taste when we came in for a tasting/consult. We were even more surprised when everything tasted amazing making our flavor decision more difficult. They were great to work with and responsive, but the designer doesn't do sketches so if you want something custom don't expect to see a sketch. I am artistic so I sketched what we wanted. The execution wasn't exactly what I had in mind, but was pretty nonetheless. Plus, it tasted amazing. I wish I had more of an appetite on the wedding day, so I could have ate more.

We had tried numerous bakeries with plenty of cakes and icings, but we loved Sweet Mandy B’s over everyone else. Not only was their cake the most memorable for us, they had also provided us the best price for our requested cake design! All of our guests loved their designed work and later the taste when they could eat it!

Working with Sweet Mandy B's for our wedding cake was easy and delicious right from the start! I did the initial visit for a tasting with my mom and sisters and they set us up in a quiet room with a dozen FREE cupcakes of all different varieties. We were able to taste whatever we wanted and then they wrapped the rest up for me to take home. There was no pressure to put in an order that day, and when I did return to place my order they were really helpful in making sure that I got exactly what I needed without trying to up-sell me on anything more-- which, after all of my experience with vendors was much appreciated! What I also really loved is that since I was getting two layers they recommended I have two different flavors and then one different kind for the sheet cake. This gave my guests options. We chose lemon, chocolate with rasberry preserve and funfetti sheet cake--Lemon was the fan-favorite that everyone raved about later! The cake was so good my guests even admitted to trying all three!

My husband and I used Sweet Mandy B's for our wedding on 2/20/16. From the first phone call we were so happy to work with them! Everyone we spoke with was so nice. We booked a tasting to try a variety of cupcake and cookie flavors. We were so shocked to see the amount we were able to taste!! And the tasting was complimentary, also great. At the tasting we knew we wanted to use Sweet Mandy B's for our wedding, so we went ahead and paid a deposit. Throughout the course of our wedding planning, we changed our minds a few times, weird, right?! But things from Regular sized cupcakes, to mini, to adding cupcakes, adding cookies.... Sweet Mandy B's were always SO accommodating. They helped us decide how many cupcakes and cookies we would need based on how many guests we had, and the amount we ordered was PERFECT, we actually had about 20 mini cupcakes left over, which we got to take home :) were also surprised to hear that Sweet Mandy B's now delivers, so the day of our wedding we didn't have to worry about anything! The cupcakes and cookies were delivered well ahead of time and they were delicious, our guests loved them!!!

Sweet Mandy B’s was a perfect choice for ordering our wedding cake for our December wedding. We went to a tasting over the summer, where they offered us about 12 different varieties of cupcakes to sample, and we got to take them all home with us after the tasting, which was a real treat. We ended up ordering a wedding cake that was half vanilla, half red velvet with vanilla buttercream frosting. It was so delicious, and we received many compliments from our guests. It was also considerably less expensive than those specialty wedding cake bakeries. My dad liked the cake so much he was tempted to steal my husband’s, who unfortunately didn’t have time to eat his cake at the wedding, but that happens. We knew about Sweet Mandy B’s before our wedding, and we go there from time to time to reward ourselves. We love this place. Their frosting melts at room temperature because there is so much butter. It’s so delicious.

Always the best! The only downside is that they do not deliver. But the cupcakes are delicious. Easy to work with.

Amazing cupcakes!!!! And a great cake too.

Sweet Mandy B's was the only place we went cake tasting...no need to try others! We went into it knowing that we agree they have the best cakes in the city, so when it came time to look into it, our only concern was that we wouldn't be able to afford it. Not the case! I had looked at other cake pricing and Sweet Mandy B's was more reasonably priced than almost anyone else. From the tasting to the ordering to the day of delivery we had no headaches or problems, everything was wonderfully done and the cake looked (and tasted!) just like we had hoped. We went with a lemon cake/raspberry buttercream filling/cream cheese frosting combo. I highly recommend Sweet Mandy B's!

Sweet Mandy B's was very easy to work with. The cookies were traveling to St. Louis for the wedding and they had them all wrapped up and ready to go. The cookies are a bit on the pricey side, but are delicious. We did not have a single cookie left at our reception.

Sweet Mandy B's makes the best cupcakes in Chicago! We ordered several dozen cupcakes and a 3 tiered cake for our wedding and even though we ordered way more than was needed for our number of guests, at the end of the night there were just 3 slices of cake left! The guests were raving about how delicious the desserts were.

We got a small strawberry cake with cream cheese and it was delicious!! Our guest got snickerdoodle cupcakes and banana cupcake with cream cheese... they were amazing! Customers service is great and very friendly. Great place to get wedding cakes/cupcakes.

Sweet Mandy B's has been around for as long as I can remember and I knew I wanted to get our wedding cake from them. They were great to work with and although we already knew what we wanted they gave us plenty of cupcakes for the tasting (we even had to take some home because we couldn't finish them all!). Our cake came out beautifully and was delicious. My only complaint is not directly about Sweet Mandy B's but rather about the company they recommended for delivery (Sweet Mandy B's does not deliver itself - you must pick up or arrange a courier). The company they recommended picked up the cake to early from the bakery and attempted to deliver outside the window we requested, so there was no one to accept the delivery at our venue. My husband had to deal with the courier the morning of the wedding when it should have been seamless if only they had followed our directions. Thankfully everything worked out and we were able to enjoy the delicious cake.

The tasting was awesome. Got to try ALL the cupcakes. We could pick extra designs/sprinkes, etc. Got to pick as many flavors as we wanted (we went with 4). And we got a small cake that they drew our wedding theme logo on (2 bicycles). SO YUMMY!!!! Our guest loved the cupcakes!

You can never go wrong with Sweet Mandy B's...while the groom and I only had a bite of our cake ...every guest asked the servers for seconds and I am still get comments about how amazing the cake was...We love our Sweet Mandy B's :)

The cake was ready right on time and the beautifully executed my custom design in ombre color white to pink. My only complaint is they don't deliver but our coordinator was able to pick up no problem!

I absolutely loved our cake, and so did all of the guests. People kept commenting on how delicious it was. The yellow cake is incredibly moist, and as a lover of all desserts with coffee flavor, that's what I really wanted, but it was hard to find the right one. SMB's had by far the best one we tried, and it was by far the cheapest cake around. The people were very friendly and helpful. The only thing to keep in mind is that you have to pick up the cake yourself (or have a guest do it), as they don't deliver. Otherwise, SMB's is the best possible cake vendor!

Our wedding cake could not have been more delicious - we did lemon cake with raspberry preserve filling and white butter creme frosting. We did a small 2 tiers and had 2 extra round cakes for just under 100 people....which was more than enough as the caterer cut them thin and we had a whole 12" cake left at the end. It was yummy. Note: you either have pick up the cake or have an outside company deliver....they do have one that does it all the time for them.

Sweet Mandy B's turned out to be the perfect match for us. We actually changed our mind at the last minute and decided to do a small personal cake (since Blue Plate was doing passed desserts for us) and we aren't big cake people and they were totally flexible and adjusted to meet our needs. We did multiple tastings with them and it's honestly my favorite bakery in the city -- I'm so glad that they were able to be a part of our day! Yum yum! I do wiish they would deliver though :) The cake small, simple and beautiful-- exactly what we wanted. Our guests liked how we did the caking cutting ceremony at our head table (which consisted of 6 of us-- my groom, maid of honor and her husband and our best man and his fiance) and kept it low key.

Their cakes are amazing ... which is enough said ... however, with their fantastic pricing I have no idea why you would have anyone else do your wedding cake.

We ordered a super basic cake for our wedding because, well, I just don't care about how the cake looks. I do, however, care very much about how it tastes. So obviously there was no other choice for me than Sweet Mandy B's. I went to college at DePaul and this bakery is my absolute fave in the city.... In case you haven't been warned, they do not deliver the cake. My family was positively freaked out about this, but the cakes came nearly frozen in hefty cardboard boxes. My mom sat in the back of our van with the cake, but honestly, she didn't need to. Nothing got messed up in transit whatsoever. And the cake was amazingly delicious, of course.

I got SOOOO many compliments on how amazing the mini cupcakes were. We had 10 different flavors! They were all fantastic and decorated SO pretty. Sweet Mandy's did a fabulous job. We tried five different cupcake places in Chicago and this bakery is without a doubt the very BEST. Great customer service too.

We knew we wanted cake that tasted good, and that what it looked like was of much less importance. We'd had sweet mandy b's cupcakes and pastries before and were thrilled to discover they made cakes as well. Their cakes tasted so much better than most others I tried and they were able to do more in terms of decorating than my other favorite place (Molly's cupcakes). It's not the place to go if you want really fancy cake decorations or fondant, but if you're looking for a delicious cake with some decoration at a reasonable price, GO TO SWEET MANDY B's. I will say, the biggest downside, and this is why I had to deduct a star, is that they don't deliver. Instead we had to spend $145 on a private messenger service, which is more than I think delivery directly from bakeries usually costs. But the money we saved on the cake still made this a value compared to many other places. Also free tasting of THIRTEEN cupcakes!

We did red velvet cupcakes-amazing. They are great with price and great in taste. We also did a small 9 inch cake for the top of the cupcake stand which was also red velvet as well. It was equally as yummy!

We used Sweet Mandy B's for our wedding mini cupcakes - everyone loved them! We did a bunch of different flavors - all amazing! When we went in for our tasting, they let us try 16 different flavors of actual cupcakes. Don't eat before you go! We also chose to do a cupcake cake that we could cut at our reception. Everyone loved that idea and it was something we could freeze for our one year anniversary. The only negative is that they don't deliver so we had to have someone pick up the cupcakes in the morning and drop them off at our venue. Overall, very awesome!

We LOVE Sweet Mandy B's and we knew we had to have them at our wedding. We tried almost every other cupcake place in the city (there's a lot), just to make sure there wasn't somewhere else out there that did a better job. There wasn't. Cindy was beyond helpful and the cupcakes were amazing! Everyone raved about them and we enjoyed our leftover mini cake for days after the wedding.

Best wedding cake ever! I didn't want the dry cakes that are used to make monstrous wedding cakes. I didn't mind that my cake would be on the small side, but it was so rich and moist that my guests asked for more! The only reason Sweet Mandy B's gets a "4-rating" for service is that they do not deliver. Therefore, I had to bribe one of my close friends to take on this responsibility. I would have paid an arm and a leg for someone from SMB to deliver!

We have always loved Sweet Mandy B's cupcakes. We went for a cake consultation and knew that this was the place. Their cake is just as good as their fabulous cupcakes. We had a small wedding cake - just two circular cakes - one vanilla and one lemon. They were willing to work with our design specifications - simple and modern and incorporating our colors. The price was very reasonable, but they do not deliver, so you should make sure that you have someone who can pick it up. The cake comes safely packed for transport.

The staff at Sweet Mandy B's was super helpful during this process - after our tasting they helped us decide upon the shape and decoration on our cake - we loved the square tiers that we ended up choosing! They also made a fabulous assortment of brownies for our sweets table at our wedding. The only downside is that they do not deliver.

They do NOT deliver, but I hired Chicago Messenger Service to do the delivery. Delicious cake, as we have come to expect from them!

We along with all of our guests said this was the best cake ever! We had the pumpkin cake (seasonal flavor. Everyone kept asking for seconds! Would definately go back there for any cake for any occasion!

My husband was in charge of all the details for our wedding cake since he loves sweets, but we were really hoping to pay under $600 for a cake. He found Sweet Mandy B's and we set up a tasting. It was the first place we visited for a cake and the last! The tasting was absolutely amazing. We were given 12 different cupcakes with different flavors and frostings to try. Needless to say, we took most of them home to sample later and give away but it was so much fun! All of the flavors were delicious, the cake was moist and the icing was perfectly flavored. After we talked more with the coordinator at Sweet Mandy B's and we received a price quote for our cake we were sold! Three layers, each layer a different flavor (strawberry, carrot cake, and snickerdoodle) plus a large yellow sheet cake all for under $300! The only problem is, they do not deliver the cake so we had to have family members pick it up between the ceremony and reception and take it over to the reception venue. They said it was easy to carry and transport the cake and luckily, it came over in one piece. I think you really save a lot on cost due to the fact that they do not deliver and they don't do much with the design. We just had a simple design on the cake and asked our florist to add flowers to each layer, but it turned out absolutely beautiful and our guests raved about the flavors! I am so happy we went with Sweet Mandy B's and I will go back again and again for more cupcakes, cakes, cookies, etc!

i'm a big fan of sweet mandy b's. they have the best cupcakes in town. to save money and to have a desert that tasts good i chose my favorite cupcakes. the wedding cakes i looked at all looked amazing, but tasted only ok. so i thought to myself "do you want something that looks great, is very expensive and tasts only ok" or "do you want something that looks good, is (compared to a cake) really cheap and thats amazing?".... no brainer. everybody loved the cupcakes!!!

Sweet Mandy B's made us a fantastic cake that our guests actually enjoyed eating! We did a layer of cinnamon cake and got so many compliments on the choice - it was gone in a flash. Ordering was also a lot of fun. We got to sample all of their cakes and frostings and that was definitely a plus :). To top it all off, the whole cake was reasonably priced. Only one caveat - they don't deliver. We picked ours up and brought it home successfully, but it depends on what time constraints you're dealing with on the day.

great taste;they don't deliver to venue
