Wedding cake bakers in Chicago

If you're not looking for anything fancy, we're using Kirschbaum's bakery in Western Springs. They only do traditional white on white cakes but they're DELICIOUS and by far the most reasonably priced (I'm talking a $300 difference for the same size cake between Kirschbaum's and the other bakery we looked at, Oak Mill Bakery.)

We used Courageous Bakery (aka Cupcakes for Courage) for our cake as well as some cupcakes and they were WONDERFUL. Price was great, cake was even better. There's a location in Elmhurst as well as (I believe) Oak Park.

Do you know what flavor cake you want for your wedding?

View Quoted Comment Idk tbh. I know we for sure want at least one tier marble cake. We are staying away from nuts in the cake as many of our guests have nut
allergies
