Bittersweet Pastry Shop

About

Bittersweet Pastry Shop is a celebration-cake bakery at 1114 W Belmont Ave in Lakeview, two blocks west of the Belmont Red, Brown and Purple Line stop, with smaller shops at 2019 S Laflin St in Pilsen and 850 W Monroe St in the West Loop. The bakery makes signature and tiered fancy cakes, cupcakes, gluten-free cakes, breakfast pastries and cookies, and takes same-day orders on a few cake flavors.

What to know

  • Signature cakes start around $68, and fancy tiered and bow cakes run $96 to $148.
  • A limited-run Atomic Cake, which the bakery’s site calls a South Side tradition, is priced from $82.
  • Holiday challah appears seasonally.
  • Cakes ship nationwide through Goldbelly.
  • Lakeview street parking is permit-heavy, so budget time for a metered spot on Belmont.
