of course, I would NOT want to take the business away from all the wonderful people who already have businesses that are peanut free, but for a while I have been wondering if there would be an interest in a peanut free (tree nuts too) bakery/candy store in the Chicago area?

I mean, I know it sounds like a silly question for this site, but I do wonder if there is enough interest to actually build one here!

There are no peanut free/tree nut free bakery in the Chicago area. There are some bakeries that have dairy free/gluten free baked goods but not nut free. I have been researching this for the past year. There are two peanut/tree nut free bakeries in Toronto, Canada. Why not here? The idea of having a peanut free/tree nut free along with candies that are safe is a great idea. It would be great to explore having a bakery that is also free of dairy products. Now that Rudi's Breads are no longer safe, we are left with no option for baked goods except to bake our own.

I live in the midwest (Iowa) and I would LOVE for there to be a closer resource for us, rather than needing to order from the east coast (not that I don't love Rebecca's Nut Free! mmmmmm)

I live in Michigan, but travel back to Wisconsin regularly. I would love something closer, and would make a stop in Chicago to get it.

I live in the Chicago 'burbs, and a peanut-free bakery sounds great; however, DS is also allergic to eggs. I bake all his cakes and cookies with egg-free recipes. As for bread, I just buy it at regular grocery stores as he's not allergic to wheat or dairy.

I live in Michigan and just about wet myself when I found a Peanut Free Bakery, so I imagine you will find someone in your area that would feel the same way.

Count me in--live in WI, but have lots of friends and family in Chicago. I'd love to spend some money in a peanut-free bakery!

Keep in mind, you would not just be serving the peanut and tree nut free comunity. Lots of others would eat or order from there and may not even notice there were no Nuts or Peanuts. :) I would love to have a peanut and tree nut free bakery near me.

Allerneeds is a great online retail store focusing primarily on peanut-free and nut-free snacks and other foods (not a nut-free/peanut-free bakery though...). Great to have a coupon code--thanks!

Bella Birches is peanut free. We're a cakery/catering company in Flushing, MI. Nuts are used but all tree nut products are shipped from companies that only process those particular nuts and all products containing nuts are made by themselves, packaged and the area sanitized before any other items are made. Gluten, egg and dairy allergen items can be made by special order too. www.bellabirches.com
