Hello! I'm Amanda, born and raised in Grand Rapids, MI.

I enjoy every step of the baking process and decorating. It warms my heart to feed others my delicious creations and to hear how much they've enjoyed them.

Awarded Best of Zola
We were thrilled with Little Whisk Bakes and would highly recommend Amanda for any special occasion. Throughout the planning process, Amanda was communicative, responsive to questions, and always punctual. When it came to bringing our wedding cake vision to life, she absolutely nailed it. The final product was a true work of art - three beautifully decorated tiers with an amazing flavor profile. Our guests raved about how delicious the cake was - the chocolate and raspberry filling paired perfectly with the vanilla cake. Amanda's attention to detail and creative talent resulted in the tastiest cake I've personally ever enjoyed. Her customer service matches the quality of her baking. We felt she really cared about making our wedding cake special and memorable. Any couple would be lucky to have Amanda and Little Whisk Bakes be a part of their big day!

Our fresh, custom, elegantly decorated ice cream wedding cakes are like no other dessert option in Chicago! I have been creating ice cream cakes for decades and have been serving wedding customers in Chicago since 2019, first through Bartleby's Ice Cream Cakes online and since 2024 from the Bartleby's Homemade Ice Cream shop. With my many years of experience providing wedding cakes of all sizes, flavors, and designs and in all kinds of venues and weather, you can be sure that your Bartleby's cake will be beautiful, structurally sound, and delicious!

My husband and I do not like traditional cakes for any celebration so we knew we wanted to do an ice cream cake for our wedding day. We have ordered Bartleby's ice cream cakes for numerous birthdays and other events and they are absolutely delicious. In addition to being delicious, I was able to work with Rachel to make this Celiac safe and free of any gluten cross contamination with a simple phone call. She made sure to make my gluten free wedding cake the first cake the day, to ensure all of the ice cream equipment was clean. She also works with another gluten free cookie company to add them to the ice cream cake as well. I can’t recommend Bartleby’s ice cream cake enough. Everyone will rave about your dessert and actually devour it!

Awarded Best of Zola
We highly recommend Milk Bar for any special occasion. We worked with them on our client’s wedding and they were absolutely amazing. We were a little nervous about ordering cake truffles online; but, the team at Milk Bar made the process so easy. They were responsive to all of our questions and they were willing to go the extra mile to make sure the truffles arrived in perfect condition and in time for the event. The birthday cake truffles were absolutely delicious. They were moist and flavorful — and, the sprinkles were the perfect finishing touch. The guests loved them! We were so impressed with the overall experience. As event planners, we rely on reliable and quality vendors to help make our clients’ dreams come true. Milk Bar was that and so much more. They were professional and efficient and made sure that everything was perfect! We would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for delicious and beautiful desserts for their special event!

So, this is kind of in my genes. ​I've been baking professionally for over 7 years, and was hired to make my first wedding cake when I was just 16! I love being able to give clients something memorable for their weddings, events, or as gifts for their loved ones. Consistency and flexibility are the two main ingredients in making my clients come back for seconds!

Lucy knocked it out of the park with cookies for a bachelorette party. Even on short notice without much direction, Lucy made cookies that were honestly too pretty to eat, but once we had one, they were too delicious to stop eating. Lucy was professional, quick, accommodating, and her cookies made for the best treat for the event. I will keep coming back to Lucy for future events, because her cookies are THAT beautiful and THAT good.
