*** the one star review is from previous owner*** My wife and I recently got married in galena. we could not have been any happier. working with cathy was a pleasure. the deserts we ordered were even better than i had remembered during our tasting (cheesecake bites, pie in a jar, pie pops, cake pops, cupcakes.....). My wifes parents came to the tasting with us, and i would say - it was the most talked about experience of the whole wedding preparation process; as well as the most anticipated ;) we even ended up asking her to "cater" our lunches for early in the day of our wedding! i plan on stalking her deserts wherever they may be, whenever we are up in galena.

We are from Chicago, but got married in Galena. We were beyond happy with all of our deserts from Main Street Cheesecakes. We decided to do a desert station, and we had: 5 flavors of cupcakes, pies in a jar, pie pops, cake pops, cheesecake bites, and three different kinds of bars. All of our guests commented on how amazing all of the deserts were, and we even got to take home the leftovers...which were gone in two days! We had our tasting with Cathy, and my husband, mother, and father all came with. We all agreed it was one of our favorite wedding planning events. Cathy was so nice, easy to work with, and had great recommendations. She even took the time to make sure that all of the deserts were displayed on the table a the wedding in a beautiful way. Everything she makes is outstanding, and I would highly recommend using her for any of your upcoming events!!!

Friends are still talking about the wonderful dessert table we had at our July wedding at Eagle Ridge Resort. They loved the location of the wedding, the great food the chef prepared BUT really LOVED the desserts that Cathy provided at a VERY reasonable price! I'm an art major, so the look of the table was very important to me....Cathy did a fantastic job arranging the desserts so that they looked as great as they tasted! Can't wait to stop in the shop the next time I'm in town and see if she has anything for sale!

I ordered my wedding cake from Main Street Cheesecakes and was in tears on my wedding day when I saw it and am still upset about the unprofessional way that it was "handled". My order was very clear and the owner confirmed it with me so I thought I had nothing to worry about, and then the day of my wedding comes and the owner changed the shape of the cake that I ordered without even consulting me because she thought it wouldn't fit on the table that was set up. When you are paying $700 for a cake that you specifically requested to be square a number of times, and then you end up with a round cake you are disappointed to say the least and it could have been so easily avoided if they would have had the common sense or the courtesy to call the customer before taking it upon themselves to change it. Everyone makes mistakes, but when you are in this industry any good business would try to make up for a mistake like this, especially at this price point, and they did absolutely nothing. The owner apologized, offered me an insignificant $30 refund, and then never responded to me again and never sent any refund. Nice lady to work with and I will say the cake was tasty, but plenty of people make tasty cakes. If you care what it looks like or have an order more complicated than a cheesecake go somewhere else.

The Chefs at Galena Main Street Cheesecakes make some of the best food I have ever tasted. Don't miss an opportunity to taste their goodies while you are in Galena!
