We ordered a cake from Sweet Ali for my daughter’s Sweet 16, and it turned out absolutely beautiful! There was a small issue with the color at first, but the staff fixed it right away and made sure it was exactly how she wanted it. The decorations and colors were perfect, and when it was time to cut the cake, my daughter added her little figurines to make it even more special. The cake looked stunning and made her Sweet 16 celebration truly memorable. Thank you, Sweet Ali, for your kindness and wonderful service!

This bakery is seriously so good. I’m so thankful they provide gluten free but most importantly for me dairy free. I adore sweets and bread and since my allergy becoming incredibly apparent, I did not have that many options. I will be coming here regularly!

I absolutely love Sweet Ali’s for normal baked goods, but wanted to write a review for the beautiful wedding cake they made for us! The cake itself was delicious (and we were able to choose exactly the flavors we wanted with a take out tasting option – we went with cookies and cream). The design was perfectly what I wanted from a Pinterest photo, and the team was great to work with in setting up our order and delivery. Can’t wait to eat more of it at our one year anniversary!

My first time will not be my last. It was a wonderful Christmas Eve experience. The place was so well decorated and so well staffed and the gentleman at the door was so friendly and helpful. It truly felt like shopping at Disney World. Great options and they helped make our Christmas!! I was smiling so much after leaving and they are a bright shining light of downtown Hinsdale!! 20 stars!! Kudus to all of the staff and owners!!

Real talk. I almost wish I didn’t find this place. My waistline is not happy. They have the absolute best gluten free pastries I’ve ever had. The highlights are the chocolate eclairs and cinnamon buns! The bagels are great too. The pecan pie was good. Oh and the lemon bars and berry crumble? Absolute FIRE!

We are beyond thrilled with our wedding cake! Not only was it absolutely beautiful, but it was also delicious — and that’s saying a lot since it was gluten-free! As someone with dietary restrictions, finding a gluten-free cake that still tastes amazing was a huge priority for us, and this cake exceeded all expectations.
The flavor was rich and decadent, and the texture was perfect — light, moist, and fluffy. The cake looked stunning, with a design that perfectly matched our wedding theme.
We’re so grateful to have found such a talented vendor who could create a cake that was not only gluten-free but also a crowd-pleaser. If you’re looking for a wedding cake that will wow both visually and in flavor (without compromising on dietary needs), this is the place to go! Thank you for making our special day even sweeter!

I had to go gluten free 5 weeks ago. I’ve realized there are some things I really miss, donuts and bagels being the big ones. I was so happy when I walked in and realized I could eat everything there! No asking if it contained gluten, looking for an ingredient list or asking about cross contact.
I got an eclair, a couple bagels, an oatmeal cream pie and some pumpkin donuts. The eclair was SO SO heavenly – it filled that feeling of always missing out on desserts. Can’t wait to try the rest of the items.
Will definitely be back for holiday pies and cookies!
Thank you for having a bakery dedicated to gluten free items!

I called about 10 days prior to our kids’ birthday party. They were able to accommodate and completely nailed our desired cake design. They were so amazing to work with and made my whale obsessed 3 year olds dreams come true. It tasted as good as it looked, everyone was raving about it! We had about 30 people and were able to serve everyone from the larger cake and still have left overs. We will certainly be ordering from Sweet Ali’s again for future celebrations!

If you have Celiac or a gluten allergy Sweet Ali’s is the BEST place for gf goodies. We found them 2 years ago and have make it a staple any time we head to Chicago. The eclairs on Saturdays are soooo good!
