Jitterbug Sweets

Serves Wheeling, IL

Elevate your wedding celebration with Jitterbug Sweet's exquisite, hand-crafted chocolate-dipped confections. We specialize in creating visually stunning treats that taste as divine as they look. We have the option for custom flavors perfectly tailored to your unique love story.

“From start to finish it was an incredibly tasty process working with Jitterbug Sweets. My husband and I knew we wanted to do an alternative dessert bar for our guests and reached out to Jitterbug to begin the planning process. We started with a tasting of her many different types of chocolates and candies, deciding on different flavor and texture combos that would be allergy friendly, child friendly, and of course include our own favorites. After an hour of delicious decision making (hardest work lunch ever) we decided upon three different bites, one which Jitterbug Sweets designed especially for our wedding - a truffle featuring tart cherry cookie whipped ganache, dipped in dark. From there we determined quantity and delivery options. While we did an open buffet table, her treats would also make a great packaged gift option for guests. Overall, her treats were a hit with everyone at our reception. I'm glad we had the foresight to put a box aside for ourselves otherwise we would have been out of luck. Thank you Jitterbug for a great product and experience! Couldn't recommend her more.”

“My husband and I loved working with sugargoat for our wedding. As someone who doesn’t love cake but wanted the traditional experience of a cake cutting - I reached out to sugargoat to coordinate a tasting as I was intrigued by their adventurous flavors. We were able to set up a tasting quickly - the tasting consisted of their traditional flavors and a custom flavor that my husband and I came up with on our own - Peanut Butter, Jelly, Potato Chip. The bakery turned our flavor into the most delicious cupcake, so of course we included it as one of the layers in our wedding cake. I emailed inspiration photos of how I wanted our cake to look, and the team at sugargoat exceeded our expectations. Everyone was kind, and we loved communicating with Brennan. The team at sugargoat seemed genuinely excited about our wedding and our cake, it was nice to feel a personal connection with them vs. feeling like a number to them. Sadly on our wedding day, we did not have a piece of cake saved for her to eat, so I reached out to Brennan and they were able to make us a small cake of our custom flavor which we could eat on our Anniversary. 10/10”

Serves Wheeling, IL

Milk Bar is a sweet (and occasionally savory) shop that’s been turning familiar treats upside down and on their heads, shaking up the dessert scene since 2008. Bon Appetit magazine called us “one of the most exciting bakeries in the country.” But you can literally just call us Milk Bar. We’re not big on feeding the hype beast. But we’re super into feeding our flavorful treats to those who crave the unexpected.

“Having Milk Bar provide cakes and desserts for our Wedding was one of the best decisions we made in our planning. We've always been a huge fan of Milk Bar, some may even say obsessed, so it was only natural for us to include their treats on our special day. Juliet was our main point of contact for our order and was so easy and pleasant to work with. She provided such thorough and efficient information that helped us place our order with ease. She was in constant communication with us from order to delivery. We had the order delivered to our home prior to the event and everything was packaged so carefully and kept cool! We only had one issue with our order, we received a regular Birthday cake vs. a Gluten Free cake, but Juliet was quick to respond and help us resolve the issue! All the treats and cakes were a hit during the wedding and EVERY SINGLE piece was enjoyed by our guests!! No one could resist! I would absolutely recommend working with Juliet and Milk Bar for any orders big or small. Thank you for making our wedding day so special. :)”
