Sweet Treats Chicago is a custom dessert shop in Back of the Yards, run by owner Riri. The menu covers the dozen-format basics — cake pops, pretzels, Oreos, Rice Krispies treats — alongside chocolate-covered strawberries and a rotating lineup of "breakables," plus themed packages built for specific occasions: gender reveals, baptisms, birthdays, prom, and cupcake cakes.
Much of the business runs on customization, with orders built around a client's theme rather than pulled from a standing case. The Infatuation has covered the shop's chocolate-covered treats specifically, and regulars point to Riri's personable, hands-on approach and consistent presentation as reasons they keep coming back.
