About Elisa's Cake by the #Pound

I’m a self-taught home baker and mom of one (Ella B.). I originally began my career as a paralegal. I baked and decorated my first cake in 2014 for Ella’s 4th birthday because I wanted to do everything in-house for her party. I quickly realized that... More

I ordered King Cakes for our in-office Mardi Gras celebration, and they were a huge hit. The cakes were delicious, beautifully packaged, and arrived on time. I love visiting New Orleans, and Elisa's cakes felt like a taste of The Big Easy right here in Chicago! Elisa was quick to answer any questions I had to ensure our order was a success. You can tell that she puts a lot of love into the desserts that she offers and genuinely cares about customer satisfaction. I would happily order from Elisa again and encourage others to do the same. You won’t regret it!

Elisa's King Cake was 🔥🔥🔥. Perfect amount of icing, beautifully decorated, cinnamon-y and delicious. I ordered for a Mardi Gras party on Saturday night and just enjoyed the last slice as my Mardi Gras breakfast. Will absolutely order again.

I met the owner at a Juneteenth block party and her cakes were very delicious! Moist, flavorful and fluffy. Her customer service was top tier as well. I look forward to supporting her business for upcoming graduations and family festivities.

We had a rush order for our daughter's first birthday away from home (LUC freshman). Elisa got our custom cupcake order to our daughter ASAP and saved the day. All of the girls who were lucky enough to get one said the cupcakes 'ate' (which I think is kid-speak for really good). Highly recommend.

★★★★★ 5.0 Kelly Turner · May 2025

I placed a last-minute rush order for a 12" cookie cake to be delivered to my daughter for her birthday. The cookie cake was perfectly baked, decorated and packaged, but what really stood out was Elisa's exceptional service and kindness - she truly went above and beyond to make this happen! Will absolutely order from her again.
