Sweet Mandy B's

ts). The team at Sweet Mandy B's was great to work with and matched our wedding crest/design to perfection! Tasted great and was overall a smooth, pleasant process. I would recommend them to anyone else looking for a custom design on a tasty cake. :)

lso incredibly delicious, flavorful, and exactly what we had hoped for. The dessert table was a huge hit with our guests! From cookies to bars to cupcakes, everything was fresh, beautifully presented, and so, so tasty. We loved getting to include a variety of treats, and Sweet Mandy B’s made the whole process easy and fun. They also offer mini sizes of lots of their treats as well as gluten free options, which was great. Their team was wonderful to work with—friendly, responsive, and clearly very experienced. They brought our vision to life perfectly and made sure every last detail was just right. We’re so grateful for their part in making our day feel extra sweet!

mended them and once we did the tasting, we knew it would be them. Not only was their cake the most delicious we tried, but my partner also loved their aesthetic the most, especially the cherry blossom design. They offered complimentary tastings and delivered a cake that was both gorgeous and scrumptious. By FAR the best bakery in Chicago!!

away and locked them in. The team provided an amazing take-away tasting which helped us narrow our choices and were super flexible in accommodating our desire for variety with small headcount (we did a mix of mini cupcakes, iced cookies and iced rice Krispies – choices, choices choices!). We did a couples carrot cake (my fave) and it was out of this world delicious! Sweet Mandy even used custom icing colors throughout to match our palette. City’s best is still the very best and they are the ones you want catering your special day!

rve all of our guests and they were so pleasant to work with throughout this process! Thank you for being so sweet :)!!

ering all of my questions, encompassing our St Patrick's Day theme.

e been going there together since college! Our wedding was a little 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!

them to order multiple cakes with different flavors and fillings. 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!

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!

e 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!

ake we've ever had. Future birthdays and anniversaries will definitely include Sweet Mandy B's. Our new favorite bakery! Photo By: Ashlyn Henry

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!

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 went with Sweet Mandy B's!

sked 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!

edding cake did not disappoint! The cake was beautiful and everyone was raving about how it tasted.

er had! Everything was perfect!

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.

nk you Sweet Mandy B's!

e 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!

aul 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!

y 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!

ercharged 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.

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.

, 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!

ini 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!

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...

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!

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!

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!

sco 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 :)

lla 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!

cupcakes were a huge hit! It was so easy and straightforward working with them and the day of delivery was seamless!

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.

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!

he 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

nly places that didn’t charge us a crazy amount just for a small wedding cake. They can’t be beat!

ivery services which is convenient, but pricey. Otherwise the quality for the price of cake is unmatched.

morable 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 :-)

ED about them. We had 4 flavors and all were stellar, as always.

dy 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!

red 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 ☺
