    Spectacular wonderland of high end gluten free baked goods. The dinner rolls are a must try, yeast roll texture and flavor, a decadent treat with butter! The challah bread was a big hit with everyone. They even have gluten-free angel food cake! We ordered the raspberry chocolate ganache cake for my dad's birthday and it was beautiful and delicious. I have been to gluten-free bakeries across the United States and this one is seriously the cream of the crop. Can't recommend it highly enough!!!

    I was thrilled to find this place. My son is gluten sensitive and I was desperate to find him Paczkis for Fat Tuesday, so he wouldn’t feel left out. To find out that they were only 35 minutes from me, I was ecstatic. They had 4 flavors: raspberry, chocolate, custard and apple. Hands down, apple was our favorite. Chocolate was close. They really made his day! Thank you!!! 🤗

    This was a cake for a surprise baby sprinkle for a dear friend who's gluten free. The cake looked beautiful however the ganache tasted like it had coffee in it and the texture of the cake was very dry, gritty and not moist at all. The overall flavor of the cake wasn't inedible however slicing it was very trying. I picked the cake up from the bakery 5 hours before serving it (let it sat out as instructed by employee) and the cake was still tough to slice, incredibly dense, and the frosting fell off the crumb of the cake in clumps with every slice;it was quite embarrassing. I won't be returning.

    Absolutely the most delicious and delightful gluten-free goodies in the state! You don't need to have a gluten sensitivity or be celiac to appreciate these top-tier tasty treats. The cookies and cupcakes are beyond blissful, served up by an equally sweet and spectacular staff who it is clear bakes each batch with care. P.S. - The Mega Chocolate Chip is a must add to any order. It's big enough to share, but you won't want to- buy two.

    2 weeks ago I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease and have been craving my used to be favorites like ravioli, cheesy dinner rolls/biscuits and cannolis especially ( my step dad is Italian). I cannot say how EXCITED I was to find these Items here!! The cannoli was one of the best I’ve ever had and I also got a strawberry lemonade macron which tasted exactly like strawberry lemonade!! The ravioli will be part of a date night dinner tomorrow. 10/10 service and food! They even had free samples! I’m definitely coming back and feel like I got my favorite foods back 😂❤️ it means a lot to have a place to go to where I can truly just get what I want. To the owners and workers of this establishment, thank you for all that you do and for making a safe space like this for those who need or want to eat gluten free! It means more than you know.

    We ordered a lemon cake for my fiancés birthday! It was outstanding, the sponge cake inside was like a cloud and the decorations outside the cake was also amazing!! I would highly recommend it if you are gluten free.

    I’ve been to Sweet Ali’s a few times. Truthfully,, never been disappointed. I recently had their cinnamon rolls, and they were fantastic! Just as good as the big competitor. I promise you will not miss the gluten.,cupcakes are phenomenal as well.

    Great gluten-free bakery! I highly recommend the pound cake and their cupcakes (all flavors). The chicken pot pies are really good, too.

    The best gluten-free items I've found so far! Everything is fantastic and my favorite was the cinnamon rolls. Amazing gluten-free bread and chocolate chip cookies

    My sister and I recently took a cake decorating class at Sweet Ali's, and it was such a fun and educational experience. I have always wanted to take a cake decorating class, but being gluten-free made that a bit more difficult, so I was super excited when I saw this being offered on their website. Before this class, I struggled with just icing the cake, but by the end, I was able to pipe beautiful flowers. The staff was very knowledgeable, fun, easy to follow, and eager to help. The price of the class felt like a bargain, considering we got to leave with a delicious 6-inch two-layer cake and everything else we learned. I would definitely recommend taking one of Sweet Ali’s classes.

    So I went to a place in Florida that had all gluten free foods. After returning home I started looking for a similar places here. This is more like a pastry, cakes and cookies place. I didn’t see many savory selections, that being said the cookies are insanely good and you wouldn’t know they are gluten free. The downtown Hinsdale location is good. The downtown is very cute with a lot of shopping to explore. So to summarize Sweet Ali’s has very good sweets and it’s worth the trip.

    Was in Chicago and made the effort to drop by here-absolutely worth the time. I wish there was a Sweet Ali’s in every state. Great service and amazing gluten free items at reasonable prices. I will be checking out their mail order options!

    As someone with a severe soy allergy, I was so nervous to even get a wedding cake due to soy being in so many desserts. Sweet Ali's made it possible for me to have an allergen friendly wedding cake that was both delicious and beautiful! We had the lemon cake with raspberry preserves and everyone loved it! Everyone was shocked to hear it was gluten and soy free and said it was one of the best cakes they had ever had at a wedding. The cake arrived in perfect condition, the delivery was prompt, and their service throughout the process was phenomenal. We highly recommend Sweet Ali's for your wedding day, especially to those who need to be allergy conscious!

    Delicious vegan and gluten free options... Absolutely delicious worth the price and the drive.

    I went to but a bday cake for my daughter and wound up leaving with a huge bag of other items. Outstanding tasty and quality gluten free sweets and breads. Fantastic commitment to helping those with celiac disease enjoy eating like everyone else. The staff is incredibly nice and helpful.

    I ordered red velvet cupcakes for a bridal shower and they are hands down the best gluten free cupcakes I’ve ever had in my life. Even better than regular cupcakes. The cake was super moist and the cream cheese icing was SO good. I will definitely order again!

    Love this place! So many GF options it makes you forget it’s gluten free! Wish they had more of the weekend stuff during the week. As with most GF, warming the items make them so much better. Best chocolate chip cookies I have found since going gluten free. Highly recommend this place. Many items are also available at woodmans.

    Everything from this bakery is always amazing!! I have done a few custom orders over the years and just ordered cookies for my nightmare before Christmas themed baby shower and they were a huge hit! People have been texting me since saying they can’t believe they were gluten free because they were so soft and delicious! You will not regret buying from this bakery! They make being gluten free a piece of cake!

    Really good cupcakes and friendly staff too. Lots of different sweet options and even a few savory ones. Definitely with the trip, even if you don't eat gluten free normally, but if you have Celiac or Gluten Intolerance it is a must visit if you are in the area.

    Dedicated gluten free bakery & store. On beyond baked items, there are dried pasta & other ready made dinner items & baking mixes . 40% of their items are also Dairy Free. They have a limited number of Vegan. I bought lemon blueberry pound cake, pumpkin bread & a chocolate chunk vegan cookie. What is left in two days will be frozen & taken home to Portland, Oregon.

    Called last minute to place order for my son who has severe food allergies…they took my order over the phone and gave me all my options the price was really cheap..I expected to pay over 100 for a cake saved me some money…customer service was great overall….this is the first time I’ve had to deal with food allergies..never even heard of wheat allergy until my son had 2 allergic reactions before turning 1! The cake had a different taste because of course we’ve never had a gluten free cake so at first I was like ok no I don’t like it but the second day I was like let me try it again and surprisingly it tasted better the 2nd time I basically ate the entire cake myself Will be my go to bakery for now

    I have always enjoyed the Sweet Ali’s cupcakes and cookies I got at Fruitful yield for every birthday and anniversary since discovering I was gluten intolerant. When deciding on where to get my special wedding cake there was no question where I’d be getting it from. I chose the cookies and cream with dairy free chocolate filling and it was the best cake I’d ever had! My only complaint is that I didn’t get to take home the leftovers (aside from my top tier that I am counting down the days til I am able to eat). Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to have cake at my wedding… I’m convincing my husband now to get me another cake- just because. ❤️ Kathryn & Nicholas Michelsen
