Alliance Bakery & Cafe

My mom loved her cake! I was extremely busy during the times I scheduled to drop off flowers and pick up the cake but the staff were courteous enough to call me, and extend the time to bring the flowers and hold the cake until the next day. The cake itself looked pretty and tasted good. Everyone at the gathering enjoyed it.

A bakery with by a renowned artisan.The cakes are visually one of a kind.Fashioned by an expert Now having said that I had a taste for a pecan roll which was tasty but small and less that average in appearance. The croissant was ordinary and lacked the buttery appeal. Parking difficult even with a loading zone.Service average.Decor classic elegance. I will be back only if I spot an open parking spot. AWARDED 1.5 YUMS ON A SCALE OF 3

Stacy and Alliance Bakery were such an incredible part of our wedding day - if you're looking for dessert for any occasion, they should be your first stop. Not only was our wedding cake beautiful and delicious, Stacy helped me through an eleventh hour panic, reducing the size of my cake and supplementing with a variety of additional desserts, helping me to avoid surprise catering fees as well as accommodate a variety of guest allergies gluten free, dairy free, etc.. She and the bakery were exceptional to work with, and provided truly wonderful desserts for our wedding - we cannot recommend them enough. For your elaborately designed cakes to your everyday desserts, Alliance has your covered with customer service that cannot be beat.

I ordered my son's birthday cake from Alliance Bakery. He's obsessed with deep sea creatures and wanted an anglerfish cake. After some emails back and forth, we settled on a design, and I couldn't have been happier. I am just amazed at the quality of their work. My son was so excited and guests were absolutely amazed. Every detail was considered even the inside of the anglerfish's mouth!. Fantastic! Thank you!

This bakery has some of the best oatmeal raisin cookie I've ever had. It has nuts in it too. So if you have allergies...make sure it's just oatmeal raisin. Sorry couldn't get a picture...I pretty much snorted that cookie. I got pics of the themed cookies though. The BHM one was dope! If I'm in Wicker Park again... definitely coming back!

I contacted Alliance Bakery 4 days before a surprise birthday lunch to create a cake. They were able to accommodate my requests and the end-result was gorgeous but most of all, it was the most delicious cake I've ever tasted! The flavors were: vanilla cake with lemon curd filling and raspberry rose buttercream filling, with Italian buttercream frosting. This will be my new "go-to" bakery, do not hesitate to order from here!

We used Alliance Bakery for our wedding and can’t recommend them enough! We worked with Celina at our tasting to not only to sample the flavors but also create the design and size of our cake for 150 people, which turned out beautifully and so delicious we went with 3 layers of chocolate, vanilla and chocolate iced with buttercream in each of our 3 tiers. She tied the look of the cake to our wedding decor so well! Then, Peter helped us coordinate the day-of delivery and also worked with our florist to top the cake. 10/10 would eat here again and recommend them for big events! : - Nadia & Jordan

I purchased paczki at alliance bakery today and it was a complete disappoint. They were dry, the filling was too sweet, lacked fresh fruit flavor, and the glaze on a few of them were soapy. Grocery store bought donuts would be an improvement. At $5 apiece the product should be much better. I would suggest another bakery for Fat Tuesday.

Josh & the staff at Alliance Bakery did a tremendous job bringing my vision to life. The cake not only looked amazing, but was moist and delicious! Their chocolate chip cookies are delicious too!

My husband and I chose Alliance bakery for our wedding cake this summer and loved our experience with them. We only wanted a small cake for cutting, and they accommodate all of our requests! The design was absolutely beautiful, the tasting process was easy and fun, and they delivered the cake to our venue with no issue, even with the smaller order. We also loved the flavors they offered - it was hard to only pick one! The cake was incredibly fluffy and flavorful and the filling creamy and delicious. I can’t wait for an excuse to order a cake from them again. photo credit: Nicole Donnelly Photography
