    Molly’s Forever

    Late review here, but we had our wedding cake made by Molly’s for our wedding on 9/16/23! It only made sense for us to have Molly’s as our first and only thought of an option to do our cake because Molly’s actually holds a very memorable place in our hearts since we’ve been getting Molly’s cupcakes since our college days when we first met!—& pretty sure we’ve tried every flavor from them and have never had one we disliked, so we knew a cake would be a hit with our guests!

    The communication and process to get the cake we wanted was so quick, easy, and flawless as we worked with Yaritza! We got a 3 tiered cake, along with 2 extra half sheets, with flavors in our favorites (peach purée filling with vanilla cake for the bottom and top tiers, chocolate buttercream filling with vanilla cake for the middle tier) all covered in white buttercream frosting with a simple border because we wanted it to be decked out with fresh florals from our florist! Delivery of the cake was also so easy to set up and coordinate with our venue coordinator! & costs were well within our budget!

    We wanted to make sure we had a wedding cake that we wanted to enjoy and for our guests to enjoy, & Molly’s certainly fulfilled that! We got so many compliments on the cake on how delicious it was and how it’s not often wedding cake is actually THAT good—we even had guests ask if they can take home extra slices! Even to this day, we have guests who still remember the cake! Overall, we would choose Molly’s to do our cake over and over again if we could! But at least now for every anniversary, we can always get cupcakes from them to always remember our wedding day! Thank you, Molly’s for being a part of our special day!

    Highly recommend!!

    We ordered our wedding cake (one 3 tiered cake + one half sheet cake) from Molly's Cupcakes and couldn't be happier with the experience! The pricing for the cake was very fair and Yaritza was great to work with throughout the entire process. The cake was excellent and enjoyed by all the guests!

    Wedding Cake

    My husband and I got married in September of last year and we couldn't be happier with our decision to go with Molly's Cupcake.

    The cake tasting process was amazing, fun, and delicious. There are tons of flavors to try from. We ultimately went for a vanilla cake with peach puree filling and a chocolate cake with raspberry filling for our three tiered cake.

    Communicating with the coordinator was easy and efficient. Molly's Cupcake delivered the cake carefully to the venue in a timely manner.

    Thank you again!

    So delicious!

    As soon as we got engaged, I knew that I wanted Molly's to be a part of our special day. Not only are they my favorite cupcakes in Chicago, but they are also one of the very first dates my now husband and I went on. From the minute we reached out, Yaritza was na absolute dream to work with. Courteous and responsive, she answered all of my questions about quantities, flavors and dietary restrictions with ease and grace. Our tasting was wonderful and Yaritza asked great questions about our catering setup and menu, so that we made choices that paired will with our overall menu and so that the frosting wouldn't melt in the unrefrigerated ballroom. When I sent a last minute panicked email about a guest's nut allergy she responded almost immediately to assuage my anxiety. They did all of the setup, and the dessert table looked beautiful. We opted for mini-cupcakes because we wanted our wedding guests to be able to try multiple combinations of cake and frosting. I'm so happy that we went this route! Even now, several weeks after our wedding, guests are STILL complimenting us about how good the cupcakes were. They were such a hit that there was not a single cupcake left at the end of the night. If you're looking for a fun, delicious dessert choice I'd highly recommend going with Molly's!

    Amazing cupcakes and cakes

    Molly’s has been my go to cupcake place for years, so I went there first when considering cake for my wedding. They did not disappoint. Their wedding coordinator, Yaritza, was so knowledgeable and easy to work with! She even made sure we had a single gluten free cupcake for one of our guests! The cake tasting was super fun and the cupcakes and cake day of were perfection! I highly recommend working with Molly’s for your wedding or next event!

    The best there is!

    I used Molly's cupcakes for my wedding cake this year and I cannot say enough good things about them! From the beginning of the process, Yaritza made the process so enjoyable and stress-free! She hosted us for a tasting and we had an incredible time talking with her as we asked about our vision for the day to help us pick the perfect size and flavors for our dream cake. We ordered sheet cake on the side for additional servings and it was so gorgeous you really could not tell it was sheet cake. It was truly a dream!

    Her team was above and beyond gracious and professional working with my wedding planner and venue to nail down the logistics and delivery for the day. We had my florist add matching flowers to the cake and Mollys Cupcakes was more than accommodating! Truly the cake was gorgeous and their customer service and attention to detail was so appreciated on our big day.

    Finally, the cake was DELICIOUS! Everyone at the wedding was complimenting how delicious it was and how gorgeous it looked. I couldn't be happier with our decision to work with Molly's cupcakes and I HIGHLY recommend them to any bride looking for a stress-free, reliable and delicious cake choice!

    So Delicious!

    We loved the cake (and experience) so much that we're coming back for our anniversary! So delicious and absolutely beautiful. We highly recommend Molly's Cupcakes to anyone looking for cakes in the area.

    Great experience with Molly's cupcakes!

    We had the vegan vanilla and vegan chocolate cupcakes at our wedding. Our guests loved them. We worked with Yaritza for the ordering. Great communication.

    Amazing Cupcakes!

    Mollys had the best cupcakes and our guests loved them so much!! We ordered more than we planned to and even with our guest count going down we didn’t even have a full dozen left at the end of the night! Our wedding cake was also made by Mollys and was amazing!!!

    Delicious wedding dessert

    Everybody raved about our cupcakes for our wedding day from Molly’s cupcakes. We had a small cake for us to cut (which was delicious) but more importantly Molly’s setup and delivery of all of our cupcakes was timely and our guests had nothing but positive things to say.

    Smooth ordering and delicious cake!

    My husband and I were so happy with our wedding cake from Molly's! We have been longtime customers of the bakery and were so excited when we learned that they do wedding cakes. The ordering process was so smooth, from scheduling the cake tastings to day-of delivery. We didn't have to worry about anything along the way. The quality of the cake was fantastic, as we knew to expect from Molly's. We ended up choosing 3 different flavors because they were all so delicious and we were able to order a sheet cake as well to accomodate all our guests. I know we'll be ordering from Molly's Cupcakes for future celebrations as well!

    Delicious!

    We had such a great experience using Molly's for our wedding in June! We had a small round cutting cake and then did cupcakes for most of our guests! All were delicious! Our tasting we had in February was one of my favorite parts of wedding planning! They were very responsive to emails and were also competitively priced! Highly recommend!

    Wedding cupcakes from Molly's were a treat!

    Molly’s Cupcakes catered our wedding in May 2019. We decided we didn’t want to do a traditional wedding cake and thought miniature cupcakes would make a good dessert option. Molly’s did a fantastic job and were great to work with! We had a wonderful tasting session with Kristine at their Lincoln Park location; she guided us through cake and frosting flavor combinations and helped us design our cupcake menu. The mini cupcakes were a huge hit at the wedding, and nobody seemed to miss the wedding cake! We would highly recommend Molly’s for any prospective couple looking for a uniquely sweet twist on their wedding.

    Highly Recommend!

    Our planning process started when we found out that our dream wedding venue would be closing, forcing us to move up our wedding date by nine months. This essentially gave us only 90 days to plan our wedding. When we reached out to Molly’s Cupcakes event team, Kristine was quick to respond. She was so pleasant to work with along with being patient and knowledgeable in answering my many questions. Kristine accommodated my request to add a second tasting at a minimal cost so that my mom and sister could join me and my husband. At the tasting, all staff were prompt and excited to share their product - already being a fan of Molly’s Cupcakes, we weren’t suprised at how delicious everything was. We ultimately decided to go with the 9 inch, 5 layer Creme Brûlée cake, with a semi-naked finish in addition to 125 Creme Brûlée cupcakes. Additionally, Molly’s had vegan and flourless options available which we were able to make single purchases of so all our guests with dietary restrictions could enjoy.

    Kristine kept in constant contact in the weeks leading up to our wedding. We connected her with our wedding venue coordinator and both parties assured us that we would not have to worry about anything - delivery by Molly’s (worth the small charge!) and cold storage provided by the venue was seamless.

    We received so many compliments that evening and people kept coming back for seconds...and thirds! Our wedding cake was everything we had hoped for and more, perfectly moist, not overwhelmingly sweet, and beautifully made! Almost a year later we still have guests talking about these cupcakes and reminiscing about how delicious they were!

    Working with Molly’s was one of the easiest decisions we made and we highly recommend them!

    The best!!

    We are so glad that we chose Molly's Cupcakes for our January 2019 wedding! All of our guests raved about the cupcakes and how much they loved them, one person even said to me afterwards that they wished they had grabbed another cupcake to go on their way out! Thankfully we were able to snag a few extras to take home with us :) Our wedding cake was so beautiful, and just as delicious! And they even helped me create the most special Groom's cake to surprise my husband with!

    It was so wonderful working with Kristine, she made everything so seamless and easy for us. The whole team and experience with Molly's was amazing!

    Delicious cake, easy to work with, fairly priced

    We got a Molly's cake for our wedding (ended up doing one large tiered cake with a few half sheets). From the tasting to the wedding day delivery, their team was professional and easy to work with (one less thing to worry about, am I right?).

    I had several wedding guests come up to me or tell me later that the cake was amazing. We were going to save the top layer for our anniversary but my husband dipped into it the day after our wedding. Too good to save.

    Delicious Wedding Cake

    When we got engaged I knew I wanted to have Molly’s at our wedding as early on in our relationship we went on one of our first dates for cupcakes there! The tasting was one of our favorite parts of wedding planning as they make it really fun. Although they may be known for their cupcakes we ordered a 3-tiered cake and sheet cake for our ~130 person wedding and couldn’t have been happier with the result. The white chocolate raspberry cake was to die for and we received so many compliments! Someone came up to me and told me they were on their fourth piece...thanks, Molly’s!

    Seamless and Fun

    We used Molly's Cupcakes for our wedding cake and to have cupcakes for our sweets table. Kristine was great with communicating and made the process from tasting to ordering seamless. They were flexible even when we wanted to make changes to the order. For our cake we chose for the 9 inch creme brulee and requested it be a naked cake. Not only did it look beautiful but guests kept asking me about it weeks after and admitted they may have overindulged at the sweets table as there wasn't a bite left within the first hour of it being served. I would use Molly's again and will find an excuse to have that cake made any chance I'd get.

    We hired Molly's on Clark St. to do the cupcakes for our wedding on July 28, 2018. They were so organized and helpful throughout the process. We even go to do a tasting, which was super helpful in choosing flavors. Our cupcakes on our big day were delicious, and we got so many compliments!! Thanks, Molly's!

    Molly's has delicious cupcakes at surprisingly great prices! The wedding coordinator, Kristine, was very knowledgeable and responsive to my emails throughout my wedding planning process. The delivery driver was punctual and understanding. The directions to get to the venue were kind of confusing for some vendors, but he didn't have a problem finding it at all!

    We are longtime Molly's fans and ordered some mini and mega cupcakes for our wedding. From the initial tasting to the pick-up day, Kristine was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was very organized, happy to answer all of our questions and made the entire process a breeze. The cupcakes at Molly's are out of this world delicious! Our guests LOVED them and there wasn't a single sprinkle left. We liked having the mini-sized option so that guests could walk around and mingle without having to sit down and use a fork. Again, everything was amazing from start to finish. Thank you so much to the entire staff for helping make our wedding day extra tasty. Highly recommend!!
