    Cake
    Jackie N.

    Great customer service, placed my order over the phone. I wasn't sure what I wanted, said it was for an engagement party he worked his magic. Cake was beautiful & delicious Thanks Mr. Cake

    Mr. Cake thank you so much for making such a beautiful and delicious cake for my mom's 80th birthday. The cake was a HUGE hit, folks are still speaking about the cake. The owner and workers are an amazing group of people. If you are looking for a bakery? Look no more, Mr. Cake is the place to go TRUST ME, you will not be disappointed.

    Great customer service and great cakes ! My son loves wild kratts and they were able to create this amazing cake that tasted better than it looked! I have been telling everyone I know who looks for custom cakes to try to place. I definitely will be coming back here again! I went to 4 different cake places looking for a cake place that can make my sons cake and they all either said they couldn't create the cake exactly how I showed a pic from online or they were charging 2x the price as MR CAKE! Mr cake was able to replicate the picture I showed them and add more ideas I had come up with! Definitely try this place!!

    My family and I have been ordering cakes from here for years and have never been disappointed with quality or customer service from Mr. Cake. I recently ordered two cakes, one being for my daughter's 16th birthday and the cake was GORGEOUS. Shout out to Lalo especially for going above and beyond, I'm so grateful to you!!! He executed exactly what I requested and then some. And the new location is so nice and much deserved to this team. I will only be ordering cakes from these guys going forward!

    In June 2023 I reached out to Mr. Cake for a cake, with 1.5 weeks out and they did a fantastic job! I sent them a picture of what I wanted the cake to look like, as this was the most important part for my niece, she wanted traditional all-white icing decorations. When I say the cake was identical to the picture I really mean it! When it was time to cut it, the biggest surprise was that it tasted delicious!! Everyone at the party was asking where we got the cake from because it was sooo delicious. In the picture below, we added the 'Happy 15' cake topper and the candles. They were great with offering travel information since I was going to pick it up, and storage information because it was about 90F degrees that day! Today, I just ordered another cake from them for tomorrow and I am really excited to see how it turns out and grateful that they were able to take me order so last minute.

    Very little cake and too much cream.

    I tasted the cake at a party and thought the cake was so good. I ordered the cake and picked it up the next day. The customer service was excellent, my two smalls were given chocolate covered strawberries. Unfortunately, the cake was not so good. The cake had more cream than cake and was hard two days later.

    We could not find a frozen cake we liked for my daughters bday/ we ended up getting a colorful rosette cake and added our own things to it! Easy ordering and pick up and VERY good!

    The staff are so nice and they did an awesome job on my daughters 13th birthday cake. Everyone thought it was super delicious and everyone kept asking where we got it from. Big hit, and made my daughter feel super special. I will be ordering a 1st communion cake for my nephew from them this week. Definitely recommend.

    They are lifesavers!!! They were able to make me a custom cake with less than a 24-hour notice because my last place had canceled! Not only did they accommodate all my requests, they really went the extra mile with decor! I believe the girl who helped me over the phone was named Arianna and she was amazing! I will definitely be getting all of my cakes from here from now on!

    I've been ordering Mr.Cake over 5years! I love their cake so much. The staff is so friendly and clean. Their cakes are moist and delicious! They are always on time. I never had a problem ordering cakes from them. It's the best bakery for cakes! They are also good on making designs! Thank you Mr.cake for always bringing a smile.

    I been ordering cake here for over 6 years. They are AMAZING!!! They listen to what you want for a cake and they have you send pics of ideas for the cake. When I went to pick up the finished product I was blown away!!! They did exactly what I asked for and then some. I will never go anywhere else for a cake. It was beautiful, we didn't even want to cut the cake. The taste is outstanding. The owner is always super nice and appreciates his customers. Major props to you and you talented staff!!!

    Cake designs are so good! Cakes are not expensive at all. Wish there were more options on cake flavors and fillings though.

    *** Reviewed based off of the Crystal Lake location. I have been ordering cakes from here for years and they have yet to disappoint. My go to cakes are vanilla and chocolate cake with chocolate mousse filling and vanilla cake with strawberry filling. I am not a fan of fondant so I go with their whipped cream frosting. I usually bring in a pic of what I want and let them take creative control. The cakes turn out amazing and taste delish. My kids are always in awe and my guests are always raving how great the cake taste and looks... Want to impress your guests- go with Mr Cake.

    This is my absolute most favorite bakery. So this is my ode to the bakery and Dom, who is a gem of…read morean employee there. I've been a customer of almost 10 years and have been obsessed since they first opened their doors at a different location. I literally live an hour away without traffic and even longer with traffic, but I make sure to stop by or send someone else to get it for me at least once a month or more. I love the amazing cakes that are so delicious and unique but on top of that, it is Asian owned, LGBTQ supporting, etc. A lot has changed since their little storefront with no seating. The bakery is now a full on cafe and I'm so happy to see how much they've grown and how successful they are. And while it is glorious, I will say I miss the sweet neighborhood charm and great customer service it used to have. Getting in touch with the bakery through phone or text can be tough and to be honest, sometimes one of the people working there is kind of...very mean. It had me questioning if I should keep coming back. I just love this bakery so much though and being raised by parents that had a small food business, I can't help but want to support. I had a particularly difficult last minute request for the bakery a few weeks ago and I was reminded why this place is so great. It had been YEARS since I made this specific request, which was an order for a slice of cake for every flavor and a cupcake for every flavor. This is a BIG and time consuming request, especially if it's last minute. Unfortunately I come to the city whenever the traffic isn't atrocious, so it's always last minute. Dom absolutely pulled through though. Even though there were other employees there (I saw two others but one disappeared and then another male was kind of walking around the cafe and such), Dom took this giant request and fulfilled it himself. The other gentleman (not the mean person previously mentioned) was actually who I made the request to, but he told Dom to do it. I was kind of confused why they didn't do it together but idk, maybe the other guy isn't allowed to handle food? Who knows. Regardless, this request obviously took a long time and the line was getting longer; people were getting a little restless but Dom stayed calm but was swift. I swear he was moving faster than most people in the industry could with a cake knife like that. He was not impatient or rude to me at all. He was just there to do his job as fast and well as possible. It's so rare to see that type of work ethic. He is also so obviously proud of the bakery and the food they serve which makes you feel good about being a patron there. So although I continue to have an unpleasant experience with one particular employee there, Dom keeps my love for this bakery alive. He reminds me of what this bakery was like when they first opened their doors. I hope Dom is cherished there and I bet he is considering his work ethic. I will continue to support this bakery and I recommend everyone else to support as well. It may not be that small little shop anymore but Dom is a reminder of the heart of the place.

Although the prices are very reasonable, you could come here everyday...BTW, make sure to bring cash as it's cash only. I really love coming here after a meal because the buns are soft, light, airy, and sweet. Thus far, my favorites are: - egg custard topping with a red bean filling and - the coconut bun with whipped creme Wow, those are really good but do try their other offerings and determine your own favorite item. I have to try their Argyle location to see if they're consistently great!!

Got there 10 minutes early and were seated immediately and served water. Our two top gave me a look at the open kitchen, and My wife a view of the dining room from side to side. Both decent views. Even though they set us 10 minutes before our 7 pm reservation, the server indicated our first course would come out around 7:15 - 7:20. They must do this to keep everything on pace for the overall service. Once the courses started coming the pacing was awesome and we made it through the 11 course meal by 9 pm. The pairings were very good. There was one cocktail and one rice wine mixed in, and only 1 red. We thought they could have mixed in another red as the profile of the whites kind of got monotonous. But all in all very good. On to the food. The only course that wasn't very very good was the first one - the kinilaw which is like a Filipino ceviche. It was tasty, but maybe needed some texture and a little more salt even though it had a good amount of caviar. The second dish was the oyster and shrimp toast which I thought might end up being my favorite. It tied for my wife'sfavorite. Very good and tasty and savory. The third course was their take on lumpia that you wrapped up and ate in a rice paper wrapper. Several courses were eaten by hand so very the meal felt very interactive. I'll skip some dishes description for brevity sake but the next dish that fought for best dish contention was what they called sinigang, basically a seared piece of mackeral in a tangy spicy broth. I like acid and heat and this one barely beat out the shrimp toast in my opinion. The Adobo that was prepared with mussels and king trumpet mushrooms was another dish that exceeded expectations. But the winner for me, and tied with the shrimp toast for my wife was the squab and dirty rice. So savory, tender and flavorful. Just a great dish and one that we typically wouldn't order a la carte. Many times on tasting menus the pastry part of the menu seems like an afterthought, but not at Kasama. I didn't get a picture somehow, but the truffle croissants were so excellent, sweet and savory at the same time, just really hard to explain how good they were. The other two desserts and the guava and cheese cake they sent home with us were good, but the croissants were to die for. Service was also solid - Our server Josh answered all our questions with enthusiasm. So Kasama deserves its two Michelin stars. Great meal and one of the most interesting Michelin meals we have ever had.

I bought 3 and my friend got 2. Calamansi cream + pistachio paste danish was my favorite. The Calamansi cream was the perfect texture and density with a fragrant citrus note. When I took a sip of coffee afterwards it made my coffee taste like I was drinking fresh orange juice. The pistachio is more cake like inside than full paste and isn't too sweet. Flaky dough, soft pistachio center and creamy top with a sharp citrus cut. Peach + raspberry Melba danish. The peaches were soft. I'm not familiar with a Melba dessert but the center of this was almond paste which is not my favorite but if you like almond and tart danish it would hit the spot. Raspberry espresso cream cheese cinnamon roll was a fun fruity twist to a cinnamon roll. Couldn't really tell there was espresso though. Blueberry lime cheesecake danish. I also liked this one because of the lime. It really cuts through the heaviness. The fruits on top were also fresh. They also have one day old blind boxes. I grabbed a 6 piece day old box to go and it was actually 6 different pasteries, half sweet and half savory! It only repeated 1 of the pasteries I had originally tried so I'm excited to try more, especially the savory ones. It's an amazing deal if you just want to try a variety of flavors. Tried the Hot dog danish - really good! Upscale pigs in a blanket vibes. The tiny fried are seasoned perfectly and add a fun crunch. The splashes of Dijon cut through and it doesn't feel oily at all.

Let me tell you, it was all I hoped it could be and more. The storefront was pretty small with a few tables- between the size, hours, and popularity (they were only open a few days a week and closed at 2pm), I suspected that the shop sold out often. I went on a weekday and there was still a good selection of pastries left around 11am. The staff was super nice and helpful as I struggled to make a decision. They shared that the strawberry milk croissant was their bestseller, so I opted for that. It was filled with fresh strawberry mascarpone and fresh strawberry puree. Despite the croissant's decadent appearance, it was not at all too sweet. I'm not typically the biggest croissant fan (I know, I know, no one is perfect) but this pastry blew me away. The filling was super generous without overpowering the delicate dough, which was baked to crispy perfection. Sadly, I don't get to the area often, but I will 100% be back asap to try more of the menu. Run- don't walk to pay a visit!

The southwest hash brioche was friggin incredible. They were very generous with the sweet potato, WHOLE EGG, and veg. Like seriously, with the cost of groceries skyrocketing, I can't believe I got a whole bit of egg white and yolk. You must eat your goodies warm, the initial crunch had me in a chokehold.

The cake tasting was a wonderful experience, giving us plenty of delicious options to choose from while helping us create the perfect cake for our special day. Throughout the entire process, their communication was outstanding. They kept us informed every step of the way and worked directly with our wedding venue, "Firehouse Chicago", to coordinate the delivery and logistics. Everything was handled seamlessly, and our cake arrived exactly as planned without a single issue. Planning a wedding can be overwhelming, but Bittersweet's professionalism, organization, and proactive approach gave us one less thing to worry about. Their attention to detail and commitment to excellent customer service truly stood out. One feature we especially love is that they keep the recipe and design of your wedding cake on file. Every anniversary, they can recreate your wedding cake or a cake in any size you choose. We've continued this tradition, and each anniversary cake has been just as delicious as the original while bringing back wonderful memories of our wedding day. If you're looking for a bakery that is responsive, dependable, and delivers an outstanding product, I highly recommend Bittersweet Bakery for your wedding cake or any bakery needs. They responded promptly to our questions and requests, unlike some businesses that never replied to estimate inquiries. Their customer service and quality were truly exceptional. A heartfelt thank you to Samuel who conducted the Cake Tasting and the entire staff at Bittersweet Bakery for helping make our dream wedding a reality. We will always be grateful and look forward to celebrating many more anniversaries with your incredible cakes.

    The pastries at bittersweet will never disappoint. I grew up going to this bakery and the quality…read morehas never wavered. The quiche is always fantastic, and anything out of the pastry case is a must. Drinks are good as well! Such a cozy spot to grab coffee with a friend (or give in to the temptation of snagging a pastry on your way to the brown line)
