Kristoffer's Cakes

Bakery · McKinley Park

"The original Kristoffer’s in Pilsen was famous for its tres leches cakes, praised by the likes of Diana Dávila and Rick Bayless before owners Carlos and Cristina Chavarria sold the place and moved to Florida to open a bakery there. But after just a few years of sunshine, they returned and opened Kristoffer’s Cakes in McKinley Park. They still serve tres leches, but they’ve branched out into other cakes, and have experimented with gluten-free and keto baking." - aimee.levitt
