The words "punk rock bakery" aren't usually strung together, but that's what Bleeding Heart Organic Bakery is. Started by Valentin and Michelle Garcia in 2003 through a shared love of baking and punk rock, Bleeding Heart is easy to find near the corner of Belmont and Damen Avenues.
I love crafty punks.
A local friend and I were driving down Belmont to get lunch, when we passed this place. "What's THAT?" I asked enthusiastically.
"Oh, yeah.
I feel kind of stupid because I didn't know there was a band called Velvet Revolver, so I just thought, cool, gun cake. Sheesh.
Bleeding Heart's baked goods are all organic, sometimes vegan, always tasty. The red coloring of the cake in the middle, the label says, comes from red currants and beet juice.
I should've asked what was going on here. I was a little surprised, to be honest.
I'm getting the impression that the place before Bleeding Heart moved in was also a bakery, and they just built extra signage on top of the old. Reuse, recycle.
