“The first time I used Amazing Edibles was for a summer luncheon. I spoke with Andrea and she helped me choose a menu, we decided on Tarragon Chicken Salad, Marinated Steak Salad, and Lemon Bars for dessert. The entire group raved about the lunch and I was given many compliments on my choice of caterers.”
Janet Bernico, Catholic Charities

“Delicious Food, Excellent Staff…
I love having Yvonne help out with parties. She is very professional, takes charge, and is always willing to go above and beyond to make sure everything goes smoothly!

“Andrea, you and your staff not only prepare superb food and drink, but take care of all the details so that one can attend his own party or event and feel like a guest – which is a good feeling indeed.”
Richard Williams

“Whenever I want the best for an occasion, Amazing Edibles is my caterer of choice! Their bruschetta is the best – the crostini firm but not hard, the tomatoes just right and the secret to making it even better, well, order if for your next party and you will be left wanting more, just delectable. The Beef Tenderloin, the giant prawns in a shot glass with chipolte sauce…delicious! The food, the service and the attention to detail is impeccable. There is none better!
Paula Heidank, Sales Administrator, Groupe Lacasse, Merchandise Mart

“I’ve always appreciated the professionalism, cheerful, and prompt service of the staff, and the excellent food of Amazing Edibles!”
Leigh Ann Senoussi, IITRI

“I have to plan meetings for both large and small groups at various venues and Amazing Edibles always provides fresh delectable options for all of my meeting needs. They deliver on time and their presentation is lovely. I’ve tried other caterers with less success – Amazing Edibles is an oasis in a glut of mediocrity! They take the stress out of meeting planning.”
Pam Glynn, Assistant Principal, Hancock High School, CPS
“For the better part of a decade, the Michigan State University School of Packaging Alumni Association has been a partner with Amazing Edibles in holding the bi-annual Pack Expo Reunion in Chicago. Due to the fact that the majority of the board of directors of the group are located elsewhere in the country, having someone to depend on in the area is critical. Andrea and the AMAZING team at Amazing Edibles are consummate professionals. They are enjoyable to work with, fair, and cognizant of the fact that they’re working with non-event planners for an event for 350-400 people. The food suggestions that Andrea gives us are creative and fantastic. The desserts offered compliment our MSU “Green” Spartan theme and are delicious.
We are confident that each time we hold the event, it will be a success due to the trust that we have in Amazing Edibles.”
***Suzanne Fisher, MSU

***Natalie Weiss Illinois Network of Charter Schools

“We appreciate your attention to detail and promptness. You are certainly my favorite caterer, head and shoulders above the rest!”
Mary Massie, Northeastern Illinois University-Chicago Teachers’ Center

“Amazing Edibles made our high school reunion a very memorable experience. Not only was the food delicious, but Andrea’s expertise was invaluable in helping us pull all the pieces together. Her attention to detail and professionalism are unequalled! Thank you Amazing Edibles for all the work you did to make our reunion so very special.”

“We love Amazing Edibles, the staff, the food, the professionalism. All of these components are what keeps us faithful to our favorite caterer, Amazing Edibles is truly amazing!”
--Beate Minkovski, Executive Director, Woman Made Gallery

“Amazing Edibles provided us with simply amazing fresh and delicious food that our guests are still talking about. Becca, our server, was delightful, prompt, and more than willing to do whatever needed to be done. The quality of the food itself was beyond reproach; the presentation was beautiful, and Andrea’s menu suggestions could not have been more helpful. Ours was an Italian buffet with all the extras, and the different kinds of lasagna were to die for! I wish I had a serving right now, and let’s not even discuss the mini cannolis. Thank to everyone at Amazing Edibles for help making our party such a great success!”
--Ellen Shulman

“Apple Computer wanted you to know how much ALL 130 attendees of our Digital Brand Building Seminar enjoyed the box lunches we ordered from Amazing Edibles. Everyone, without exception, raved about their choice – the freshness and taste of the breads, the quality and quantity of the selected “stuffings”, the neatly put-together packaging with ample size napkin that did not fall apart, the brand name chips and cookies – everything was perfect and added to the success of our event. Everyone went away with a smile on their face and still talking about their lunch. When they all started to arrive, worked got out that lunch would be “box lunches” and everyone winced, but, they were in for a surprise with the fare Amazing Edibles prepared for them. Also, all calorie counting was put on hold when they viewed the selection of brownies and snack bars, yummy-yummy for the tummy, they heck with diets!!”
“Thank you Andrea and your staff, for putting together a gourmands delight, you really contributed to our successful day!!”
--Paula Pearson, Apple Computer, Inc

--Karen Capria

“Amazing Edibles is just that…amazing! As a non-profit, we have many people to please but often we are on a tight budget. Amazing Edibles always delivers! We’ve used Amazing Edibles for luncheons, dinners, and cocktail parties. Every event is flawlessly executed and the food is always absolutely delicious. Amazing Edibles’ staff is one of the best in Chicago. Andrea and her crew work tirelessly, yet always manage to have smiles on their faces. Andrea will tend to every last detail from food and linen to drinks and place settings. While I love all their food, my favorite pasta dish is the scrumptious Penne Alla Crema and my favorite appetizer is the tasty Chicken Satay. I would confidently recommend Amazing Edibles to anyone!”
--Melinda Green, Holy Trinity High School

“Whenever I have a meeting or event for which I need a caterer I never give calling Amazing Edibles a second thought! They are absolutely my number 1 “go to” caterer for all my meeting needs. Andrea, the owner, is incredibly responsive and easy to work with and is flexible with menu options in order to meet my varied budgets and needs. The service before and on-site at my meetings has consistently been impeccable over the past 4 years – Amazing Edibles has never been late for an event and often times has arrived and set up before I even get there! After almost every meeting, the host asks me who the caterer was, and for Amazing Edibles’ contact information. This to me means that the food was great for all involved.”
--Michelle Esquivel, Associate Executive Director, Illinois Chapter, American Academy of Pediatrics
