About

Fleckenstein's Bakery is well known in the south Chicagoland Area for creating the finest wedding cakes available thanks to the hard work of our devoted team of Bob, Joan, Ray, and Ross Fleckenstein. They insist that a wedding cake is not created more than 24 hours in advance of the reception. They work long hours on the weekend to ensure the freshest cake for your wedding. Typically, while you are at your dress rehearsal, they haven't even started your cake yet. This isn't reason to fret, but to relax, knowing that we will take care of everything and have perfect timing with our delivery. The family team pays every attention to detail, which starts with the baking of the delicious cake layers. Fleckenstein's Bakery engineers and assembles those layers from the bottom up to create a cake that is structurally sound and stands the test of time (unless a tipsy guest falls into the table!). They will beautifully ice your cake to a smooth as glass finish. Finally, your cake is decorated with the utmost precision and patience. After the cake is completed at the bakery, your cake is carefully driven to the hall and set up by Ray or Ross. Bob, Joan, Ray, and Ross feel that creating your wedding cake is the most important job they do. It is because they feel this way that they leave nothing to chance and personally do all the work on your cake. After all, their reputation is at stake.

Delicious desserts!

Using Fleckenstein’s was the most stress free part of our wedding. We did not want a cake and went with a dessert table instead. We went in and talked with them and they gave us all of their options. We ordered more than enough for our 220 guests and that was it. They took care of delivering and all of the desserts were absolutely amazing.

Turned my Pinterest pic into real life

So happy they were willing to make a cake out of their norm. They took my picture and created my dream cake. Allll I heard about from my wedding is how amazing the cake was... and it was!

Fleckenstein’s is amazing

We had pie instead of wedding cake. Fleckenstein’s made us feel great about making that decision. All they needed was to know what kind and how many pies a couple of days before the event. We continued get compliments on 1. The decision to have pies and 2. How delicious they were. I refuse to get pie from any other place now that I’ve been so spoiled by Fleckenstein’s.

Fleckenstein's has the best cakes I have ever tasted. We went with them for our bridal shower cake and the wedding cake and are always pleased with their products. Our wedding cake was beautifully decorated and tasted delicious! We will definitely be getting all of our cakes for every occasion from them!

My husband and I ordered our wedding cake from Fleckenstein's and we absolutely love the cake-they did such a wonderful job decorating it the way we wanted it and it tasted absolutely wonderful-we are usually not cake eaters! Their baked goods are great as well, we would get a donut or a chocolate pecan every time we would come in there.

Our wedding cake was absolutely beautiful, and it tasted just as great! Not a single slice of cake went un-eaten, which is saying something since we had ~100 guests and the cake was supposed to feed 125! We had one tier lemon cake/lemon filling, and the other tier was white cake/raspberry. Great people to work with. Highly recommend!!

To say that my cake was amazing would be an understatement. Not only was my cake beautiful, but it tasted great also! I received so many compliments on my cake. Mr. Fleckenstein took the exact picture I had in my head and brought it to life. I would definitely choose Fleckenstein's for any other events I have in the future.

I got cupcakes for my wedding along with a small cake. The cupcakes and cake were both beautiful and tasted delicious, also they were very inexpensive.
