    Amazing cake, wonderful customer service!

    I went through Sweets Bakehouse for my wedding cake & cupcakes and they were absolutely delicious! I have celiac disease, and the GF wedding cake they made was to die for - couldn’t even tell! I ordered regular, non GF cupcakes for guests and they were all raving about them. Side note - I am from Ohio, so when scheduling a tasting it was very smooth and they worked with times that worked for me when I was in town, even squeezing me in during a very busy holiday season. Absolutely amazing customer service, quick in responding, and wonderful desserts (especially if you are gluten free!).

    Amazing Baker

    Tara and her cakes are so yummy. We set up a cake tasting and chose 4 flavors and 4 fillings. She had them set up for when we arrived and let us know which ones are which and which would be best with each filling. We chose the Almond flavor with Raspberry filling and Vanilla flavor with Oreo filling. They were our favorite and I am going to order them again so we can relive our memory of the yummy cake again. Thank you Tara!

    Such an amazing pâtissier

    Not only are Tara's deserts to die for but she is also extremely talented. My husband and I flew down to Florida last summer for our catering tasting and also did a tasting with Tara while we were in town. She was super friendly and very easy to work with. She and her team were also great at keeping in communication with us. She took an inspirational photo I shared with her and created an amazing masterpiece for our wedding cake/cupcake tower. My only wish was that she wasn't located in Florida but instead here in Chicago because I would order from her all the time!!!!

    The first happy tears I had on our wedding day happened when I saw our dessert table

    Tara and her team took my vision and made it come to life but even better than I ever could have hoped for. I knew I wanted a dessert table for our wedding and I had a few creative aspects that I wanted included in the styling, but it wasn't as simple as "boho", "romantic" "rustic", etc. Her team asked me the right questions to get a feel for what I was looking for and when it came to life, I am not even embarrassed to say I got teary eyed when I saw it. For all that we got, pricing was extremely reasonable and most importantly everything was DELICIOUS. I'm upset that I didn't get to try every dessert but I am proud to admit I ate that leftover cake after every meal for 4 days lol. I may have to plan a pickup with Sweets Bakehouse whenever I'm in the Sarasota area now. Highly recommend!

    AMAZING! Couldn’t recommend enough!

    Tara is hands down one of the best! She brought our vision of our wedding cake to life, and not to mention it tasted AMAZING. We cannot recommend her enough, she is an all around joy to work with!

    Highly Recommend for Wedding Cake!

    Tara with Sweets Bakehouse did a great job on our wedding cake and it was exactly what we envisioned! If you're purchasing a wedding cake, definitely do a tasting because all of her flavors are amazing. We ordered a three-tiered cake with both orange cake with vanilla mousse and coconut cake with a pineapple filling. It was so easy working with Tara and we highly recommend Sweets Bakehouse!

    Wonderful Wedding Cake!

    Tara created an amazing cake for our wedding at the Powel Crosley Estate in Sarasota. It was absolutely delicious, and so beautiful! Thanks, Tara!

    What a cake!

    I needed a vegan cake for my wedding and I was referred to Tara, Sweets Bakehouse, for her ability to make a delicious vegan cake. I am SO glad I met her!! I knew from the moment I saw the lovely tasting she set up for us (like seriously she set up the tasting table like a gorgeous Boho wedding!) that we were in for a treat. I cannot stress enough how sweet Tara is! And OMG THE CAKE!!!! Our non vegan friends and family were in love with this cake!! It was the first time they had vegan cake and wow they were surprised! And one of my bridesmaids ate so much cake I’m not sure how many slices she had taken with her to go lol!! Absolutely delicious!! Best vegan cake I have ever had and I will definitely be ordering cakes from Tara every chance I get! The cake itself was also absolutely beautiful. We got the vanilla peanut butter, and to be honest here I’m still thinking about that cake. You will not be disappointed with Sweets Bakehouse!!

    AMAZING…even after 1 year!

    We ordered not only my bridal shower cake from Sweets Bakehouse, but also my wedding cake! The 4 tier wedding cake was amazing! We chose lemon lavender with blueberry filling and it was absolutely delicious. Our one year anniversary just passed and we preserve the top tier to share and it was just as delicious as on our wedding day! We will be using Sweets Bakehouse for every occasion!

    Wedding Cupcakes - 11/7/20

    Sweets Bakehouse was an absolute WONDER to work with! We had extenuating circumstances come up and had to go with a different bakery only a few months before our wedding and Tara was so quick to get back to us! Not only was she informative, but so friendly and easy to communicate with. We went with four different cupcake flavors and a small cake for Paul and I to cut during the ceremony. All of the cake was absolutely incredible! If you are looking for tasty cupcakes for your wedding, I would recommend Tara and her Sweets Bakehouse any day! Thank you to all of you!

    Our cake was AMAZING!

    We found Sweets Bakehouse through Facebook and we are so happy! We went for a tiered donut “cake” since my husband and I aren’t super big cake eaters. The glazes on the donuts were great. We did do a cake on top so we could do a traditional cake cutting and the cake was absolutely delicious. Tara communicated with us very well and made sure we got exactly what we wanted! I highly recommend her!

    Tara is awesome!

    Tara did an amazing job on my wedding cake. I told her exactly what I wanted and how much I wanted to spend and she made it happen. Her cakes are absolutely delicious! I’ll definitely use her again for special occasions!

    The best I could have ever hoped for!

    As a couple going for a vegan wedding cake, choices were few and far between around here. Luckily Tara's Sweets Bakehouse was all the choice we could have ever wanted! Beginning with initial outline, to the tasting and final product, working with her was an absolute joy and stress-free experience. When we were given two flavor options, and loved them both equally, she had no problem combining them and making a cake that exceeded our expectations!

    The presentation was stunning, and the greatest compliment I could have ever gotten, and I got it several times that night, was "I can't believe this cake was vegan!!!" It was always our hope that we could show our guests that vegan food could be just as delicious as traditional fare, and Tara proved that in spades!

    Thank you so much for being the literal icing on the cake of our wedding night!

    -Peter and Nikki

    Delicious dessert at an affordable price!

    We hired Tara to do the dessert bar for our wedding a few weeks ago in Sarasota. From start to finish, Tara was friendly, helpful and communicative - and her desserts were DELICIOUS! My guests could not stop talking about how tasty the desserts were! I gave her an idea of the type of desserts I had in mind, and she quickly came back with an assorted dessert menu based on our preferences that fit our budget. She even made vegan cupcakes for my sister, and went above and beyond by letting us borrow her beautiful dessert set up and trays. She also delivered and set up the dessert bar. If you want delicious desserts for your wedding at an affordable price, created by a lovely and trustworthy person, Tara at Sweets Bakehouse is your girl! Highly recommend!

    Tara was quick to respond and created the most beautiful cake for us! When our caterer mentioned she is the only baker they recommend, we understand why.

    Amazing execution of a beautiful wedding cake

    Sweets Bakehouse was an absolute pleasure to work with! She was so on board with all of our vision and executed it perfect. The cakes were DELICIOUS. We ordered two cakes that would feed 240 total. We had 190 guest today and every piece of the cake was eaten! The guests loved it. We loved it.

    Amazing and delicious!

    We hired Sweets Bakehouse to make our cake and dessert bar for our wedding last year and she did a beautiful job!

    Beautiful and delicious!

    Tara is amazing at what she does! You cannot ask for a more beautiful and delicious cakes. I have had wedding cakes that looked good but didn't taste good..Sweets Bakehouse can do both and at a fair price! You won't regret using Tara for your wedding or any event!
