    Green tea, 6 inch
    Jessica M.

    Mont Blanc has now become our go-to Asian bakery for special occasions. So far we have tried the green tea and mango mousse. We had both in 6 inch for about $29 plus an extra $1 for a message on a piece of white chocolate. The green tea flavor is a bit too subtle for our liking but the mango mousse was a hit. We look forward to trying their signature mont blanc cake as well as their other mousse and crepe cakes. Telephone orders and pickup are simple and seamless. Simply let them know of the cake flavor, size, message, and pickup time. They're very punctual with pickup times. I arrived early for mine and they said the cake was not ready because it had to be set for a set amount of time first. It was not an issue for us since Mitsuwa was just down the street and we needed to pickup groceries anyway.

    Green tea matcha cake

    I used to frequent pastry house hippo at Mitsuwa around once a week for a few years. This place I went to once pretty early on after going to crescent bakery to give them a try their chocolate cake didn't hold up to house hippo, so I wrote them off. I revisited when I had a bad experience with house hippo not sure if they changed their chefs or recipe but it was a bad experience across several slices I purchased that day. Long story short I enjoyed the slices here quite a bit and even found their matcha cake tasting better than house hippo's the grade of matcha is higher quality as well. I would say the Kahlua, Tiramisu and the Matcha are among my favorite slices so far, they are glorious with a nice cup of tea and not so sweet that I regret eating a slice and can even consider going for a 2nd. Their crepe I would say is better than Hippo's also, but pastry house hippo had the best chocolate and unique cheese cake I have ever tried. This place does offer unique slices I can't find elsewhere in their own right and will find me as a repeat customer for those slices and the lack of crowds at mitsuwa is another bonus. Cons: When boxed wax paper for each individual cake is not present, which helps when taking the cake out of the box without having to grab the cake.

    I've decide to try this place solely based on the reviews but very quickly realized it's not to my liking. Ordered Mont Blanc and peach mousse. Cake felt little dry and consistency is off. I've decided to buy pastries for a special occasion and I was disappointed I chose this place.

    Adorable and delicious mocha cake

    Mont Blanc is just a block or so from Mitsuwa. It offers beautiful and delicious cakes. Perfect cute store to buy treats for ourselves or for special occasions. All their cakes are eye candy, so pretty and light , and not overly sweetened (perfect for Asian's palate ) Highly recommended this cute bakery if you like desserts

    Strawberry shortcake
    Fabby G.

    I love this place!!!! I drive over 30 miles to get here. The best cake place is super clean. I have tasted all The different cakes, and oh my God, it is so light it melts in your mouth, absolutely delicious.

    Dèlice, Strawberry cake, and Passion Fruit... yummy

    I was looking for something sweet while I was visiting Chicago for my son's bootcamp graduation. Found this super cute bakery with yummy cakes. Hopefully I can try the others when I come visit again from California!

    You can't imagine how awesome this cake store is! I am ordering a birthday cake for my son's first birthday. I got an idea from pin interest and want to try my luck here. It turned out to be the Dream Cake. Every guest coming is complement it. On top of that, the cake is so tasting. If you are looking for a healthy smooth and light sweet cake. Bingo, find the right place. We order a strawberry shortcake. Turned out to be favorite for both adult and babies too. The service is also very good. I was double and tropes confirmed for all the details. Would def go with it

    I am a true fan of Mont Blanc, a fine quality chestnut cake you can easily find in Taipei, Japan and France. Unfortunately it's not very common in the great Chicago area until I found this place named Mont Blanc!! This place didn't disappoint me at all. Their chestnut cake is amazing! I don't think this place is pricy considering both of the quality of the cake and the skills they have to make such an artwork. I haven't tried many other cakes but I'm definitely going to go back! The owners are very very nice! They carefully wrap your dessert and give you all the possible welcoming feelings for your visit. I will be happy to support their business because they bring back a lot of memories of visiting bakeries in Asia!

    A lovely "gender reveal" cake from this bakery last fall was the perfect way to celebrate our baby girl!  Mont Blanc's sweet baker accommodated our request by frosting the cake with a similar design as our wedding cake. He used pink sponge cake and strawberry mousse (boy would have been blue with blueberry mousse) inside a lovely white frosting, and the cake held up great all day so our surprise was not spoiled.  The cake itself was light and flavorful and everyone loved it!  Thank you Mont Blanc!

    9 inch Tiramisu cake (the fruits are propping up the chocolate sign)

    The tiramisu cake was delicious. The cakes are expensive, but worth it for special occasions. The tiramisu cake can be ordered one day in advance.

My office has catered from Pear…read moreTree for a number of years so I've been fortunate enough to be able to try many of the delicious items that they offer. I love the amazing presentation across all items I've seen -- many times exceeding what I've ever seen at weddings. They also provide wonderful cards with descriptions and dietary indicators that look great and are very informative. What really stands out here though is the food quality. All the fruits and vegetables I've had, whether it be in a fruit tray, salad, grilled veggies, etc. are top notch. Generally I won't go towards fresh produce when given other options, but Pear Tree has won me over with their absolutely delicious items. Even items such as breadsticks and crackers with a mix of cheese are absolutely delicious, where the commitment to sourcing quality ingredients is evident with every bite. Salads are also incredibly good here, with fresh greens that are nice and crisp and nice juicy tomatoes and other items like cheese, nuts, fruits, etc. that once again show their commitment to top notch ingredients. Overall, I'm glad that we do so much corporate catering with Pear Tree Catering. Employees are genuinely excited every time they bring in delicious food to the office, as they are consistently excellent across the board with all their offerings

Catering Made Simple was, without question, the most stressful, unprofessional, and disappointing vendor of my entire wedding. What makes it worse is that the owner chose coercion over accountability -- attempting to pressure me into deleting my review before even agreeing to speak with me. That alone should tell you how they handle their mistakes. I posted multiple public notices tagging them and gave them a deadline -- Friday, September 26 at 12:00 PM -- to reach out and make things right. Despite several attempts, they ignored every one. Planning Failures: Our contract clearly stated a plated dinner, and I provided a detailed color-coded diagram with guest names, allergies, and meal choices weeks in advance. Despite this, staff insisted it was a buffet while we were lined up for our ceremony. I had to walk into the reception in my gown minutes before walking down the aisle to correct them. Because of their confusion and refusal to listen, our ceremony was delayed -- critical time lost as we were already working around rain. Execution Failures: We paid for full cake service, but utensils were missing, and flimsy tools from a décor box labeled "Do not use" were handed to us. Our cake, made by a close friend, was ruined when staff shoved a fragile custom topper -- still in its frame -- into the cake, splitting the top tier. One staff member even called it "cheap." They also failed to provide the highboy table we paid for and placed our cake awkwardly in the back of the dessert table. Guest Service Failures: Staff hovered over tables and repeatedly asked guests if they were finished. My own half-eaten meal was cleared while I was in the restroom, leaving me hungry at my own wedding. When I asked for water, I was escorted to the bar instead of being served. Professionalism & Accountability: My coordinator was harassed to the point of tears, and staff even threatened to pull me aside during the reception to complain about her. The owner, Greg, was present all night, saw me address problems directly, and never once spoke to me or apologized. Instead, he posted defensive public comments and tried to coerce me into removing my review. The only positive: the food was warm, tasty, and as expected from the tasting -- but that's where the good ends. The impact on our wedding was significant: * Our ceremony was delayed. * My coordinator was harassed. * Our cake -- lovingly made by a friend -- was ruined. * Guests felt uncomfortable. * I was left hungry. * The owner refused to take responsibility. To top it all off, I have since been blocked from a major Chicago wedding vendor group -- likely due to a complaint from Catering Made Simple -- instead of them engaging in constructive dialogue. Catering Made Simple failed in planning, execution, professionalism, and accountability. They caused unnecessary stress and ruined key moments of a once-in-a-lifetime day -- and then tried to silence me. Brides and grooms: do not risk your wedding on this company.
