This bakery shop has been opened for a very long time. This is a new location. It’s not far from the previous location but the interior is much more modern. So, it attracts more people. It’s quite busy. You have to pick up the number outside the shop before ordering inside.
There are variety filling and topping of donuts and cookies.
We got custard, chocolate custard, blueberry and raspberry cream donuts. They are all good and not too sweet.

I love this small business. The employees are hard working, and the food is always delicious! The seasonal cream cake is a personal fave! I love the smell of the baked goods when you walk in. The new owners haven’t changed the Jarosch tradition! Kudos to them! I have used them for work events and for personal events, and everyone ALWAYS asks where the pastry or cake came from!

We got the coffee cakes for our company holiday party from Jarosch Bakery again this year, and I think they were better than ever! I cannot even imagine a more delicious coffee cake. We had the raspberry custard strip, the marzipan pretzel shaped coffee cake, and the blueberry melody coffee cake. They were all fresh and delicious with plenty of tasty filling. We also get all of our birthday cakes from here throughout the year (10-15 cakes) and they are always fresh and delicious as well (we always get the ones that are already made in the case and then have them write “Happy Birthday” on them). The staff has always been super nice to me. The bakery is older, but it’s always nice and clean. I think it’s charming, and I actually prefer it’s traditional bakery style. And I love the way the machine wraps the string around the cake boxes. I’ve been coming here for years and it’s always been good, but I think the new management/owners have actually improved it.

Update: We cut into the cake there was a hair in the cake will be calling jarosch tomorrow again. The chocolate part of the cake was dry there was barely any fruit in it. Sadly won’t be a customer of jarosch anymore this bakery has lost its ambiance & specialty. I miss the jarosch paper jarosch wrapping the small details. My dad even said this is the worst cake I’ve seen in 30 years from jarosch. I am very disappointed with the cake and the service I received today 9/20. My family has been customers of jarosch for over 25 years. We’ve ordered many cakes from here. I ordered a cake for my dad’s birthday, usually we do the flowers for decoration. Well I saw a cake with balloons and confetti on their website from 3 months ago the photo was posted so I thought oh that’s cute for my dad instead of flowers. I expected the cake to look similar to the photo on google. When I saw it I was shocked. I had a family member pick it up since I was working that day. It looks absolutely nothing like the photo and the balloons costed an extra $6 for the design. The confetti also looked atrocious. I called and the lady on the phone was very ignorant and rude saying it’s multiple cake decorators and she doesn’t know what photo I’m talking about she isn’t sitting in front of a computer. I said it’s the only photo with balloons on your site and it says happy birthday Emily on it. She wasn’t very understanding and said it’s not a machine doing it they aren’t all going to be the same we aren’t a factory. Her tone and attitude was rude and not nice no hospitality at all. The cake looks sloppy and rushed and just overall bad cake decorating. I’m hoping it taste better than it looks and that hasn’t changed as well. She gave me a $25 store credit . I expect more from this business you are a family owned business that’s been open for many years and your prices are up there too. An 8 inch cake I paid $52 for I expect more otherwise I would go to jewel or Walmart. I also drive 45 minutes just for this bakery and it is disappointing. You are a bakery making wedding cakes and cakes that cost hundreds of dollars I’m sorry I expect the balloons to look better than someone decorating at Walmart thought this was a special bakery with expertise.

Whilst in Chicago I purchased some cookies to bring back to my Co workers in the UK. It’s safe to say that they all loved them and that Jarosch now has fans across the pond. Great service, great taste and I would recommend to anybody! Thanks Jarosch team

I’ve been coming here for years to get cakes for my friends and family. Last weekend, I came in to order my own cake and Laurie was so lovely to work with over the phone. Super quick and easy, brought my ideas to life. Highly recommend to anyone who wants an affordable, great tasting cake.

The staff are very friendly and helpful, honest regarding availability of pastries and baked goods. The handicapped parking is nonexistent, the doors aren’t automatic and there’s a barrier to walking into the bakery from the parking lot that’s across from the bakery, poor planning on the part of the architect. The food is Great but it’s a pill to get to it.

Been going to Jarosch since the 1980s.. Expected some bakery items to change due to the merge with Ideal, but went yesterday to the new store and what a disappointment. Find out many items that were staples of the iconic Jarosch bakery will no longer be sold like their breads. Donuts ok but not “ideal” for me to trek to Elk Grove Village anymore.

They did a full sheet cake for a one year old birthday party. 80 people. Cake was two layers and fresh and delicious. It was huge. More than enough for the whole party, and it was a huge hit! People were wowed by the size and decorating job. Jarosch team took plenty of time helping us plan, and they even did a custom design for our “groovy” theme, along with a small “smash” cake. Overall, a great job. I thank them, and highly recommend Jarosch’s for custom cakes and all bakery needs!
