Everyone loved our wedding cake. And they should, Oak Mill Bakery is one of the best. I thoroughly enjoyed working with them. The cakes they are able to design and the multiple flavors are outstanding. In fact, we ate the top cake tier the first week after our wedding. We decided we'd rather purchase a fresh cake from them for our anniversary. The bakery also offers fancy grooms' cakes if you are looking for this option. They are completely trustworthy and so easy to work with. I frequent the shop now just to buy their cakes and other baked goodies.

Our cake was incredible! We had a package deal with Independence Grove - Catering by Michaels Co, and they work with Oak Mill on Milwaukee and Oakton - we did a 4 tier cake - each layer had a different cake/filling - white cake w/passion fruit moose, carrot cake, chocolate cake w/chocolate ganache and raspberry filling, and strawberry shortcake - it was delicious! Thank you

We had our cake and sweet table with them. They did a fantastic job. Each tier of the cake was also a different flavor.

Our cake from Oak Mill Bakery was delicious! We chose vanilla with buttercreme frosting and fresh strawberries. It was included with the package from our venue, but prices for "upgrades" were very reasonable (25 cents/person for hexagon shape instead of circle, 35 cents/person for fresh strawberries inside, and they worked with my mother to get us a 4 tier cake when our guest count with the venue would have been three tier). We went to their bakery to do the tasting and were impressed with the quality of the baked goods. Highly recommend!

I love oakmill bakery for many years now. their cakes are delicious and I knew I wanted them to do my wedding cake! It was so easy to work with them through Lido banquets you just let them know your flavor and your design and no more worries. they call you in advance to confirm the order and your cake is delivered to the reception! Gorgeous i wish i could freeze it and put my cake on display! Thank you oakmill for making my wedding cake as delicious as it was!!

The cake was wonderful! The bakery was recommended to us by our recpetion site, since that is who they use for thier packages. We were able to go down to the bakery, do a taste test and create a unique cake. (2 layers of yellow cake, a middle layer of poppyseed cake and lemon curd filling- tasted just like a lemon poppyseed muffin!) We were also able to mix and match aspects of a few cakes to help make our cake just what we wanted. Becaue the cake was included in our package, we only had to pay for a few of the extras, which was not that expensive.

Our wedding cake was from Oak Mill Bakery and it was not only a thing of beauty to behold but it was absolutely delicious!!! We have used Oak Mill for numerous other occasions and they never disappoint. We also had them deliver a pastry tray for later in the evening - also fabulous!!! We had rave reviews from all of our guests. I would highly recommend Oak Mill Bakery.

I have been getting cakes from Oak Mill Bakery since I was very young. To use them as our wedding cake vendor for our wedding was only a given. Oak Mill was very professional, quick, and responsive. Their cakes were very very reasonable in price within a very reasonable budget. The cake was delivered and setup at the reception venue perfectly with all the appropriate "after-care" for the top tier of the cake - materials to preserve it for the one-year anniversary "eat" should we have wanted the option.

Holy cow, our cake was AWESOME! I was a little worried because our budget wasn't very high, but I feel like the bakery and staff went above and beyond to give us a BEAUTIFUL cake that fit our theme perfectly! I even called 2 days before the wedding last minute and had them add roses to it and did so all over the phone and it totally wasn't a problem. I was so impressed I sent them a handwritten thank you with photos. Highly recommend this bakery! (and their chocolate ganache cake!)

Wedding Cake
 
Oak Mill Bakery is the supplied cake vendor for our wedding venue - The Cafe la Cave in Des Plaines. I worked with the Niles store and was impressed by the vast amount of cake portfolios they have available for viewing. I had gone on my own during the week without an appointment and was able to view each binder. My fiance and I returned at a later date for our actual appointment. We picked a great combination of kiwi/strawberry with custard filling and a special sugar coating on the outside over buttercream. Our guests raved about how great the cake was and that they couldn't believe it was real since it looked so stunning! My husband and I ended up eating half of the top layer we took home and froze the rest regretfully. If it's not that great after being frozen for a year, we are happy to know we can go over and order another cake at any time! Basia was wonderful to work with. Thank you!
