These were hands down the best (BEST!!!) gluten free pastries & baked goods I have ever had! I am so glad I was able to stop in before my trip home. I will absolutely be making the 1.5 hour trip again just for these sweet treats! Absolutely a MUST stop!

One of the best GF bakeries I’ve been to! Had a chocolate cherry cookie and a French silk pie with the best gluten free crust with great flavor and texture. The owner was very nice and was happy to hold our refrigerated purchases for a few hours while we shopped around. Definitely will be back and want to try some of their to-go quiches

I wish I could camp out in this place and try everything. Delicious GF pastries and baked goods. My non-GF husband says it doesn't even taste GF. Quality and selection are excellent. Come at opening on a Saturday for a cinnamon roll - DELICIOUS

Highly recommend!! Dedicated GF facility that also has vegan pastries, but not everything is vegan. I got a cookie and a coffee cake and I will be dreaming about that GF cinnamon coffee cake for a long time! I also got a keto peanut butter cookie. The place is on the lower level.

I can't say enough good things about Eye Candy Bake Shop! It's hands down the best gluten-free bakery I've ever visited. The donuts are incredible—yeasty, fluffy, and they taste just like regular donuts, if not better. You'd never know they were gluten-free. Every treat I've tried here is amazing; nothing has that typical gluten-free texture or taste. If you're looking for the best desserts ever, this is the place to go!

Great selection of gluten free baked goods and some choices for dairy free too. Tried the cheese cake, and several bars and loved them all.
Dedicated GF
The service was good. Ordered a scone, a cobbler, and dairy fruit layer dessert. Has a prominent sign indicating that it is a dedicated gluten free bakery. Great for people who like lots of sugar. I would have liked to see less sugary items and more heartier baked goods like bars, cheese and bacon scones, souffles, tarts, popovers, etc.

Love this place! Probably my favorite GF bakery I’ve been to so far. A must stop if you’re in the area!
Dedicated GF
Gluten free cupcakes and cookies! Delicious. Love this place. Friendly staff too.
The Oreo cheesecake was the best cheesecake I've ever had! The coffee cake was fluffy and delicious!
Dedicated GF
What a great little bakery! It’s entirely GF, and they also have options for sugar-free, nut-free, and dairy-free. So many amazing options — go early in the day to get the best selection. I had the snickers bars once and they were amazing. The cinnamon rolls are good, as are the cheesecakes and various bars. It’s so good that my son (not GF) begs to go to this place whenever we’re in town!
Dedicated GF
Just go here. It’s amazing.
Dedicated GF
I visited this bakery for the second time today. The selection is great and the quality of the gluten-free goods is fantastic! I'm hoping they’ll offer a couple of baking classes in the future.
Dedicated GF
By far the best bakery I've been to. I want to move within walking distance of here.
Dedicated GF
Love this bakery and visit every time I am in town. Wonderful options I can’t find anywhere else. Cinnamon rolls, hand pies, cookies, etc. Staff is so nice and even gave instructions for how to store extra items since I was sticking up!

Oh my, this bakery is phenomenal! I would never guess their items are gluten free! No reaction at all, and the taste is out of this world! If you are in the area as I was, you must stop here and buy as much as you can! I would make a special trip back just for their pastries!
Dedicated GF

Excellent bakery!!! Have multiple different types of options to choose from and have more dietary selections such as keto/dairy free. Food is well priced and tastes amazing
Dedicated GF
This bakery is amazing! Everything is gluten free and they have a lot of vegan/ dairy free options as well. My husband is celiac and dairy free and he’s never had an issue with anything at this bakery. I recommend this bakery to everyone gf I know!
Dedicated GF
This bakery has an amazing selection and many dairy-free and vegan options. It’s dangerous to have so close to home! I’ve had GF cheesecakes, cupcakes, a delicious “S’Mores”-type dessert, cinnamon rolls, and much more!
Dedicated GF
Love this place! I have had the carrot cake and cowboy cookie and both were amazing. Definitely worth a stop if you’re in the area!
Dedicated GF
Super yummy! I’ve only had the carrot cake so far but will be returning often to eventually try everything!

Entire establishment is gluten free, and it looked like they had a lot of vegan/dairy-free options as well. Had the tiramisu and orange tres leches -- both were delicious! Definitely recommend.

Best in northern IL.

Wide variety, super safe, very tasty

My husband and I were there yesterday and ordered the keto pumpkin cheesecake. It was delicious but did have that cooling effect of erythritol. Today we went back and I purchased the keto brownie which were the same ones in the window yesterday so first of all, they were not fresh. They were very dry and all we could taste was the strong after effect of the erythritol-no chocolate flavor or richness at all. My husband did not even finish his which is extremely unusual. Today there are so many keto sweeteners that it is easy to combine a couple different ones to minimize that strong cooling effect so that it is not noticeable. I do lots of keto baking and so am familiar with how wonderful things can taste. Sorry, but we were very disappointed. Service was kind and friendly.
Dedicated GF
Made a custom cake for my daughter on very short notice and not only did it look amazing, the taste was unbelievable. Even the gluten eating, non cake liking people loved it. There really are no words. Why are you still reading this review? Stop wasting time and go there now!
All the desserts here are delicious! I would give 10 stars if I could! It’s a dedicated GF bakery. She also has a lot of items that are vegan, Paleo, keto and everything not only tastes good but looks beautiful. Such a nice addition to downtown Geneva.
Everything is so yummy and the owner is super sweet and knowledgeable. Selection for vegan, paleo and everything is gluten free!
I highly recommend Eye Candy Bake Shop. Lorena is an amazing baker and her flavors are extraordinary. The best Horchata and Lemon cookies I’ve ever tasted. Her presentation is beautiful too! There is nothing I’ve tried here that isn’t delicious.
