I loved Sprinkles before I knew I have celiac. Went for the first time post diagnosis and while they make the cupcakes in a shared kitchen, they do prepare the GF ones in a different part of the kitchen, store them on the top shelf of the display, and assured me they change gloves. Not many options, but there were two today! Haven’t tried it yet, but feeling optimistic. Update: did not get sick last time, but have since not felt comfortable getting them again due to being right next to the vegan cupcakes and being informed they are not prepared separately from glutinous cupcakes.

They have a small printed sign that their kitchen that they make GF cupcakes in are not gluten free. While the GF cupcakes are not touching other cupcakes, they are still stored adjacent in the same space and it’s very possible small crumbs travel in the space.

Cupcakes themselves are very very delicious.

I am non-celiac, with wheat allergy (+more), and I had a mild reaction from eating their cupcakes, which may or may not be due to wheat.

Was excited to go here based on the reviews but got sick worse than I have in recent memory afterwards. All I can think is that they mislabeled the cupcake or there was some serious cross contamination. Probably not a usual event based on the reviews but celiacs be wary.

I have always ordered the gluten free red velvet cupcake with zero problems. Never tried any other flavor but 10+ they have never let me down with the gluten free red velvet. I am a very very sensitive Celiac as well.

I very specifically asked for a GF cupcake and was assured it was. It was not and of course I got sick. I called and was told their version of “gluten free” is actually “gluten friendly”. Do not recommend!
