    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 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!

    Melisa of Calumet Bakery is awesome!! She is very warm, inviting and patient. She knows when to sit and listen and when to offer suggestions. The cake was excellent. Moist and beautifully decorated. I also love that they are a full service bakery with a wide variety of options and reasonable prices.

    I plan to make many more purchases from Calumet Bakery.

    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

    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!

    The wedding coordinator did an awesome job assisting us with cake selection, frosting selection and the tastings were out of this world. The have amazing payment options and are very efficient. I wouldn't trust any other bakery for my pastry needs.

    I would recommend taking someone with you to try all of the cakes. This is very overwhelming when you go by yourself! I would have something in mind so it doesn't take forever to go through every picture that they have. The cake turns out absolutely amazing! I had so many compliments on the cake! Everyone wanted to know where I got it from!!!

    Calumet Bakery is one my family and I have used many times in the past and knew they would be the ones to make the wedding cake, and we were not disappointed. The cake was gorgeous and perfect for the venue we had! Four days later people are still raving about how moist and delicious the cake was and I won't even get started on the sweets table. There was dessert for days and it was all perfect!

    My family has been getting cakes from Calumet Bakery for as long as I can remember, so of course my husband and I had to get our wedding cake from them. Everything about the cake was perfect. We ordered a 4-tier strawberry shortcake and neapolitan cake with minimal decorations. Even though it had a simple design, it was absolute stunning... and of course it tasted delicious! They also provide you with a one year anniversary cake, which is simply amazing!
