I didn’t actually visit h the is bakery but picked up their Dairy Free Earl Grey biscuit from a coffee/tea house. It was super moist with great flavor. The only down side to this item was the primary ingredient was sugar, but on the up side wasn’t too sweet. Best baked, gluten-free item I’ve purchased.

This place goes hard, as someone who hasn’t eaten a lot of GF foods this had a lot of options that were GF and tasted great. This could just be in my head but I feel like typically the connotation around GF foods is that they might not be as good as stuff w gluten and this place shits on that sentiment

Dedicated gluten free bakery. Very impressed. Presently, you observe offerings from bakery window and they come out and take your order and package them up for you. A must try. Vegan offerings, dairy free offerings also.

Perfect. The variety is a dream come true and the quality is top notch. This must be how non-Celiac people feel at every quality bakery. Wish I could go every month. Everything is gluten-free and the choices are unique (orange cake with cranberry-rosemary compote and a holiday blondie with white chocolate, cinnamon, bourbon, 5 Chinese species…just to name two).

I met the owner of the bakery, and she was such an incredible delight. She was excited to tell us about her bakery and to share her goods with us. We got a ton of of the gluten free baked goods, and everything was delicious. They had a pizza bread that was to die for. Would definitely suggest this place. She told me they also sell some items in certain grocery stores around Chicago, and I am excited to see what my local store offers—she said my Whole Foods and Sunset Foods carries stuff, so keep a look out in your area.

I can go all day on defloured, but simply put, this is the best gluten free dessert in Chicago (and maybe anywhere). They have gained a lot of popularity, but haven’t lost a step along the way. Diverse offerings that don’t make you realize you’re eating gf. You can also find their products at speciality stores like plum market. Way to go defloured!

It's almost overwhelming to have so many delicious options. I've tried everything here at some point and I swear you can't go wrong. Never had an allergic reaction, never struggled with other dietary confusion (vegan items are always labeled clearly...) Love this place. It's the happiest.

Defloured has an amazing selection that even my non-celiac friends enjoy! The store hours are limited but you can also find some of their baked goods in the gluten free fridges at local Whole Foods locations. I would recommend placing your order ahead of time if you know exactly what you want as some treats sell out (especially on weekends).

The butter bar was by far the best thing. The ding dong tasted like a real ding dong! Oatmeal cookie pie thing was AMAZING. However, the cupcake I ate wasn’t any better (or worse) than Trader Joe’s cupcakes. All the other stuff is great though. I bought 4 items for only $15.

This is a delightfully delicious little neighborhood bakery which also so happens to be dedicated gluten-free. Though they're small and have just one food case, they pack a ton of variety and interesting flavors into their offerings. We tried a selection of bars--s'mores bar, seven layer bar, and cranberry almond bar--and all were fantastic. We took an angel food cake to-go and loaded it up with strawberries and whipped cream at home. Everything we tried felt deceptively gluten-free; it was hard to believe it truly was safe to eat!
