    About the Business

    Business owner information

    Photo of Rachel S.

    Rachel S.

    Established in 1977. Filippo and Nina Bongiorno emigrated from Palermo, Sicily to Detroit, Michigan in 1953. Two years later their 3rd child, Aggie, was born. The Bongiornos opened a family-owned bakery in 1977 using recipes passed through generations & the bakery flourished. In 2018, after years of hard work & dedication, Aggie was ready to retire and she and her kids, Ashley and Adam, were looking for the perfect family to take over the beloved business. In March of 2019, they found that in Rachel Schmidbauer. Rachel, & her family, owned Baked Custom Desserts and were looking for a place to expand their growing business. It was a perfect match and in March of 2019 Rachel combined the two business under Aggie's Bakery. Today, Rachel and her family are surrounded by a growing staff of talented people who share their vision for creating the finest quality baked goods & who honor the amazing legacy that Aggie, and her family, built. We look forward to serving your families and we'll see you at the bakery!

    • Q:

      Do they have authentic Italian bread and rolls? So hard to find.

      A:

      Hi Joan! Unfortunately, we do not do any breads in the shop (we don't have the room)! We always recommend Peter Sciortino Bakery on the East Side or Bread Pedalers here in West Allis.

      Poticas - need to order in advance and understand that with the work they take - these are Fabulous! And I know as I've been loving and eating Poticas for at least 50 years! We live in AL now but have family in Milwaukee area and this is my Top pick for gifts - send me 4-6 and I can freeze them and they keep their freshness - never dry!
      Visited the bakery this summer and we picked up pastries, coffee cake, and cookies- all great ! Love having a bakery as good as Aggie's- although staff need to review the list of available items as one staff member looked at me funny and had to ask another about Poticas!
      Worth a visit and sit and enjoy in the quaint coffee area with the shop!

      Billy welcomed us into this wonderful world of Aggie's beautiful desserts. He couldn't have been more pleasant and helpful to us. He's got a great sense of humor and really made our trip there enjoyable. He was extremely accommodating to answering my questions and giving us the best service he could offer. I highly recommend this place for the elephant ears that I was looking for. I'm from California and we don't have those back there and I was excited to see them. I was born and raised in Milwaukee so I know what their local favorites are, and that was one of them.

      My partner and I stopped in Aggie's Bakery and Cake Shop this afternoon for the first time. Since we don't have very many (and?!) traditional American bakeries in Southwest Florida, we were thrilled to see an array of cakes, cookies, cupcakes, and doughnuts. I thoroughly enjoyed my vanilla Long John and my partner devoured his Persian nut roll. The woman who helped us was training and very sweet. We'll be back!

      OMG
      West Allis has a hidden gem and it's called Aggies Bakery and Cake Shop. Upon walking in you will gasp at the sheer magnitude of the choices. Donuts of every flavor, shape and beauty. The cinnamon rolls are nothing short of miraculous - they're 3 stories high of soft, pillowy cinnamon dough with - wait for it - an ice cream scoop of delicious homemade cream cheese frosting with the - May it never go away. I bought 2. I also picked up 2 of the best crullers I've ever had - sorry Sentry and Grebe's, but these have taken over the #1 spot?

      Anytime I am in the downtown west allis area, I always seem to find myself stopping by to grab a quick Stone Creek coffee served here. I also always end up eyeing the delicious sale baked items which are only a day old and still taste just as good at a discounted rate. We ordered a cute Yule log themed cake for a party here and it was just adorable and I only wish I had a picture to post and show just how cute. You'll just have to take my word for it.

      Aggies provided the desserts for our wedding, and we could not have been happier. Rachel was so pleasant to work with, super helpful- made everything easy! Aggies delivered our desserts to the venue, and everything was delicious! We had the mini cheesecakes, eclairs, fruit tarts and pecan pies. Several friends came up to ask us where they were from and tell us they were yummy! Highly recommend!

      I posted this review on Google and here too because people need to be advised of Aggie's poor quality and customer service.
      (I would give zero stars if I could) Attended my nephew's birthday party this past weekend and I can't tell you how hard everyone was laughing at how ugly the cake was. The reference picture for the cake was something advertised on Aggie's website so it shouldn't have been something new for them to make. The end result for our cake had little to NO resemblance and was truly horrendous. It looked like they forgot there was an order to fill and completed it shortly before it was picked up. It was a rushed piece of crap.
      That was the ugliest cake I've ever seen in my entire life and the quality was an absolute JOKE. What a waste of money.
