Meet The Baker’s 🤵🏾👰🏽‍♀️

We order our wedding cake from them and everything was perfect. They deliver on time and setup. Also the price was very reasonable.

Delicious with out breaking the bank

Calumet is a staple in the community and anyone who has been there knows why. After going to this bakery for a consult the decision was made. They were so affordable and what most bakeries charge extra for is included here. They had lots of flavors to choose from and even gave us samples to take home so we could take time to make the right flavor decisions. They also were able to deliver on a non-delivery day. The cake was so good that we didn't even get any to take home. Also no need to freeze it, call them before your anniversary and they will give you a complimentary top tier.

Delicious cake

We got a tier cake and four sheet cakes. They even offered a cake for our one year so we don’t have to preserve the cake. Highly recommend

Delicious cakes at an affordable rate!

We received a ton of compliments on how delicious our wedding cake was thanks to Calumet Bakery. We opted to do one small cake that we could cut & have for pictures and purchased a sheet cake to be sliced for guests to enjoy. A much more affordable option and allows your guests to have a cake with buttercream frosting which is much more yummy than fondant. We went with a marble cake and strawberry filling, yum! They also provided some complimentary donuts for our catering team which I thought was a very thoughtful gesture. Affordable prices compared to the city and delivered to the West Loop of Chicago with no issues. Highly recommend!

We used Calumet Bakery for both our wedding shower in March of 2017 and wedding on 4/22/17. We had a tres leches cake for the shower and a marble cake with cannoli filling for the wedding. BEST CAKES EVER! Many of our guests are still talking about how much they loved them. Their cakes are delicious and the prices and quality of service make everything even better! Everything in their bakery is tasty and our family uses Calumet Bakery for many of our special occasions. Worth every penny!
