Maddiebird Bakery

Stopped by today in a rush and bought all their cupcakes. Michele was great and the cupcakes were AMAZING! This is a gem of a find and already placing a second order. Enjoy!

Such a cute little shop! The cupcakes are delicious, and I’m assuming everything else is too. The owner is super friendly as well. Can’t wait to have an excuse to get a cake from her :)

Excellent cupcakes! And service! I ordered 3 dozen mini cupcakes for my daughter’s 3^rd birthday party and they were spectacular! And, when I went to pick up the order there was a bonus dozen of s’mores thrown in for free! Thank you Maddiebird for the excellent service, delicious cupcakes and reasonable prices! So recommend

Great service and great cupcakes. My wife claims they have the best gluten free cup cakes she’s ever had.

These ladies ROCK the gluten-​free pastry world! Gluten-​free is always scrumptious at Maddiebird Bakery. The Staff are kind, jolly and witty, and stand ready to whip up a custom order in the blink of an eye. At least that’s what happened on my first visit. My wife’s birthday is September 27, and her gluten-​free cake will certainly hit the spot like the cupcakes I brought home last week. Maddiebird, we love what you do, how you do it, and we can definitely ‘feel the love’ in your bakery treats

Amazing little bakery in Rogers Park, Chicago! Tonight was our 1^st wedding anniversary and our top layer of cake hadn’t been saved for the traditional freeze and eat… So I turned to the pros to help us out with a small cake. It was perfect! Carrot cake with cream cheese filling was so delicious! Would highly recommend this bakery to anyone getting married as well as to anyone who just wants a fabulous cake! Michele was so friendly and we will definitely be returning in the near future for some of those cupcakes they had on display!

My wife has been eating gluten-​free for about ten years now, and one of the items she misses the most are cupcakes. Sure, plenty of places have gluten-​free cupcakes now, but no one can compare to Maddiebird GF cupcakes. We received a box of these cupcakes as a thank you present from some friends who live near this bakery, and we’ve been hooked ever since. I can promise you that you won’t be disappointed by their GF cupcakes!
Also, their staff is extremely helpful and kind!

Last month, Michelle, the bakery owner, was extremely helpful when I requested some assistance with my garden. Also, the bakery’s interior is lovely and the phone was answered promptly when I called.

I just had one of their vegan chocolate cupcakes. OMG. This was probably one of the top 3 cupcakes I’ve ever had in my life-​VERY moist and flavorful. In other words, the cake had a deep chocolatey flavor and the icing had a slight hint of coconut. Could totally tell that the chef used quality ingredients. Absolutely delicious.

Fantastic customer service and a delicious cake to boot! We ordered a custom cake for our daughter’s cake smash. Placed the order a month in advance and received a timely response.
I described what we wanted but didn’t have a clear image in my mind. They really made it come to life and it was cute and insanely delicious. So long as we’re living in Rogers Park we will be getting all of our cake/​cupcakes needs met here!
Really fantastic experience and pleased with the outcome. Would definitely recommend!

I’ve been a fan of Maddiebird since their cupcakes would pop up here and there in Metropolis coffee and to see it grown into their own location is just great! Awesome people, great service and delicious. Huge fan of the espresso buttercream. The artistic side of their work is truly unique.

I was unhappy with the quality of the cupcakes, the service and the prices. I do not recommend Maddiebird Bakery. I prefer to purchase baked goods at a more affordable price that promotes fair trade and has a more people friendly vibe.
I will not return nor would I ever recommend Maddiebird for anyone else living in or around Rogers Park!

First time in here!!! Got a dozen cupcakes at $ 3.50/each. I’m like, O… M…G!
Bought a dozen for the bank staff at my bank. One way to describe it…
OFF THE CHAIN!!!
I don’t have a favorite because I eat ‘em all! The owner Aaron can hook you up. I swear that man can make bakery magic on Devon!
I really like some small individual business owners. I hope this place is here to stay for a LONG LONG time. If you haven’t come in to see Aaron and check out his joint, YOU SHOULD! He opens at 11 & the pleasure inside for you awaits…
Now I got TWO bakeries I truly adore!

The cupcakes are delicious and taste homemade! I love how they load the frosting on top. I really like the chocolate cupcakes and the red velvet are very good too. The cupcakes are $ 3.50 each and very well worth it!

Try one of their newest creations — German Chocolate — to die for!

I don’t like frosting, so a cupcake may seem like an odd choice (and it did to me, too) but what I was craving something sweet at the exact moment I passed Maddiebird and decided to check it out. The aroma persuaded me to ask if I could get a cupcake sans frosting, and the guy behind the counter said of course, and then asked if I’d like one warm out of the oven. Um, yes please.
So, sooooooooo good. I selected the chocolate and it was heavenly. Not too sweet, with a deep cocoa flavor. My only regret was not getting two!
Oh, and when he rang me up, he only charged my $ 3 because of the no frosting.
I will definitely, definitely be back.

I am not a vegan but I am dairy and egg yolk free so this is one of the few places I can get a bakery treat that fits my dietary needs. Woo hoo! Unfortunately they only have one flavor vegan cupcakes. Maybe in the future they’ll have more. I don’t know how they do it but you can’t tell it’s missing traditional cupcake ingredients.
They also sell custom cakes and you can watch these cakes being made while waiting for your delicious Metropolis coffee to go with your tasty cake.
Everyone that works there is awesome and friendly. This place is a great addition to the neighborhood!

Michele made the most perfect wedding cake for our family! Not only was it customized and gorgeous but it was moist and delicious. Even left out for two days each slice is still perfect! THANKS!

I have been anxiously awaiting Maddiebird’s arrival in the neighborhood for what feels like months– ever since I saw the «Coming Soon» notice on the windows. When I saw the FB annoucement that they would officially open their doors this past weekend and it happened to fall on the same weekend as my brother’s birthday, I called my mom to let her know that I was bringing dessert.
I strolled over on Sunday morning around opening. There were already people outside waiting for the doors to open. After a few moments of peering in the windows, the doors opened to a really clean, modern and sweet little café. The kitchen was busy with mixers going and bakers working and cupcakes were stocked in the display case.
I ordered a dozen mixed cupcakes. At $ 3.50 or so per cupcake, I thought that was pretty standard in terms of what you’ll pay for a cupcake in Chicago. We got vanilla/​vanilla, chocolate/​chocolate, vanilla/​chai spice (my favorite), chocolate/​vanilla and vice versa.
The cupcakes, decorated with delicious frosting, light sprinkles and a fondant heart, were so cute and a hit all around, including with my Aunt who is honestly the best baker I know. I’m so excited to have this cute little shop a block away from my house and a place to bring my little one for a special treat on occasions.
Also, I’m selfishly hoping that Maddiebird does so well in this location that they lure other small and local businesses to some of the storefronts on Devon. It really is a great area, and they have earned my repeated business from here on out.

Über excited Maddiebird opened a storefront here in Edgewater. I ordered a custom birthday cake from them before they opened and it was THE BEST CAKE I’ VE EVER TASTED!
Maddiebird is doing stuff with design and cake decoration that I’ve never seen, and it’s not a gimmick. The cake’s are next level delicious. I honestly think this is the start of something huge for the neighborhood … and maybe beyond.
