Tay's Sweet Shop was fantastic to work with for our wedding! Their communication throughout the entire process was great - they were always quick to respond to our questions and very accommodating to our needs. The cake they created for us was absolutely beautiful and tasted delicious. It was exactly what we had envisioned and perfectly complemented the style of our wedding. Tay's Sweet Shop clearly takes great pride in their work, and we were thrilled with the quality and value they provided.

Bartleby's Homemade Ice Cream 

5.0

  • Starts at $64
  • Serves Highwood, IL

Bartleby's Homemade Ice Cream evolved from Bartleby’s Ice Cream Cakes, a company I founded in 2019 that sold handmade, gourmet ice cream cakes through its website. With the opening of our beautiful brick-and-mortar, we’re excited to offer classic hand-dipped cones, sundaes, and shakes, while continuing to make ice cream cakes for all your special occasions (because ice cream cake IS the best cake).

My husband and I used Bartleby's for our wedding, and they were fantastic! W had tried their cakes prior to our wedding and loved them, so we knew we had to lock them in for desserts at our reception. We're both vegan, and were thrilled to find a vendor who made quality vegan desserts with a plethora of tasty options, with countless ways to mix and match flavors. Plus, how fun is ice cream cake?! Our guests loved it (it was entirely gone by the end of the evening!) and they also enjoyed the bonus ice cream sandwiches we also ordered from Bartleby's. The entire ordering process was super easy as well, from tasting all the way up until finalizing delivery.

Nadiya's Cupcakes 

5.0

  • Serves Highwood, IL

Nadiya’s Cupcakes is a small business wedding cake bakery with an organic cake design style and a European-inspired cake flavor menu. Your wedding details are the most important ingredients in achieving your ultimate wedding cake vision, and you are part of every step to personalize it. Our cakes come tall and our specialty is buttercream; we do not use fondant. We love using fresh fruit and high quality raw ingredients to produce balanced flavors that have just the right amount of sweetness while retaining their natural, key-note taste; you and your family won't feel guilty going for a second slice, we promise.

As a wedding planner, I want to say that Nadiya and her team are amazing to work with! Super prompt and professional, kind and lovely to talk to as well! She is great on events and her work is beautiful and tasty!!!! I’d definitely recommend her as your dessert to-go!

  • Starts at $4 per serving
  • Serves Highwood, IL

Hello future brides! I'm Audrey O'Shanna, owner and operator of Windy City Cookies. I specialize in custom sugar cookies. From favors to bachelorette parties, showers, and every event in-between. I love taking your vision and bringing it to life in the most delicious way! Fun fact about me, I took 1st place in the pastry division at "The Chicago's Best Baker" competition in 2018!

We had Windy City Cookies make these beautiful cookies for a graduation party. They were the perfect graduation theme cookies , and I asked her to individually wrap them with for me. They were beautiful—everyone loved them! I heard from reliable sources that they tasted delicious, too. Sadly, I did not have any of the cookies for myself. Hopefully next time!

Molly's Cupcakes

  • Starts at $3
  • Serves Highwood, IL

Welcome to Molly's Cupcakes! Ms. Molly was my third-grade teacher. Whenever my classmates or I had a birthday, she would bake us cupcakes. She had her special recipe for chocolate and vanilla cupcakes. In honor of Molly and as a way to help our kids and community, a portion of our profits is donated directly to schools in our community. Every time you eat a cupcake or sip a latte, you help our kids. So eat up!

Molly's Cupcakes was a delight to work with for our wedding! Their communication style was very responsive and organized throughout the planning process, which we greatly appreciated during the hectic wedding preparations. The cupcakes they created for our big day were simply delicious and a true crowd favorite amongst our guests - we heard raving reviews from multiple people about how tasty they were! We had three flavors (red velvet, chocolate, and peach cobbler) and they all turned out incredibly moist and flavorful. Molly's also handled the delivery and set-up with total ease. Overall, we were thrilled that we chose Molly's to provide the cupcakes for our wedding - their team was a dream to work with and their products brought so much joy to our guests. We would enthusiastically recommend them to any engaged couple looking for a talented, responsive baker to contribute something sweet to their special day!

We began as a concession company providing cotton candy at sporting events. In the fall of 2021, we extended our brand by starting our own manufacturing plant. Sweet Buckets was born as an option for customers and businesses to purchase Cotton Candy and Gourmet popcorns direct from our company.

We had our wedding reception at a brewery and wanted some easy to eat sweet and salty snacks. These popcorn flavors were delicious, they sent us flavors to try before we decided. We chose 4 flavors and they shipped them right to our house. The popcorn buckets had our cute custom labels which they designed for us and looked PERFECT! We had tons of compliments on the popcorn. We ordered plenty and people were grabbing them to take home at the end of the night. A perfect snack after a few beers. Theu were very fast with the samples and the order too!

Lucy Bakes 

5.0

  • Starts at $200
  • Serves Highwood, IL for additional fees

Hi, my name is Lucy! I'm a baker and decorator located in Downtown Milwaukee, and spend most of my time in the kitchen! I also come from a lineage of bakers, and most notably the "Cake Lady of Erie Pennsylvania" - being my great grandma. So, this is kind of in my genes. ​I've been baking professionally for over 7 years, and was hired to make my first wedding cake when I was just 16! I love being able to give clients something memorable for their weddings, events, or as gifts for their loved ones. Consistency and flexibility are the two main ingredients in making my clients come back for seconds!

Awarded Best of Zola
Lucy knocked it out of the park with cookies for a bachelorette party. Even on short notice without much direction, Lucy made cookies that were honestly too pretty to eat, but once we had one, they were too delicious to stop eating. Lucy was professional, quick, accommodating, and her cookies made for the best treat for the event. I will keep coming back to Lucy for future events, because her cookies are THAT beautiful and THAT good.
