Review: Amazing spot! I've wanted to try this place for so long, and it definitely didn't disappoint. The owner was very kind and told us all about her sweet treats. I love that all the treats are made with high-quality ingredients and are suitable for gluten-free, dairy-free, and vegan diets. I also appreciate that they use no refined sugars. The caramel cookie dough bar was the best! It had so many fun and different layers, making each bite perfect. The energy bites were also great and the perfect midday snack. I will definitely be going back and recommend this place to anyone, regardless of dietary restrictions.

Review: Ingrained is SO tasty and my body LOVES that it is WFPB. The triple cookie sundae bar is actually my fave dessert I’ve maybe eaten in recent life. Consistently looking for an excuse to go get another treat here! If you are GF, DF vegan or Whole Foods focused, you must try!

Review: The best place for desserts!! And I love that every item is gluten free, refined sugar free, made with the highest quality ingredients, and I actually don’t feel sick after enjoying an “indulgent” treat. I absolutely love the frozen raw bars. They taste like an ice cream sandwich from your childhood but 1000x better from Syd’s creativity with the flavors. Also don’t skip the savory menu. The made-to-order sour dough bread is SO good. It’s the only bread I buy now. It’s the best gluten free sour dough bread I ever had. The soups are also really hearty and delicious. Honestly you can’t go wrong ordering anything from Ingrained. I’ve never had anything but the best experience. Yes, the price are more expensive than your box of Oreos. That’s because 1, it’s a small local company run by a woman Syd and her husband, not a giant corporation 2. All of their ingredients are ethically sourced, better for your health and longevity ingredients. She may use dates for example to sweeten a dessert instead of refined white sugar so yes that will cost more. 3. She uses superfoods like Maca and Spirulina that are amazing for your health. Yes that will cost more than industrial flours and dyes. The price is an investment to your health and ingrained is absolutely worth it

Review: Ingrained is an absolute gem in the Chicago snack scene! From the moment I tried their handmade, plant-based, gluten-free, and refined sugar-free snacks, I was hooked. The care and dedication that go into each product are truly evident in every delicious bite. What sets Ingrained apart is their unwavering commitment to using high-quality, locally sourced ingredients. As a consumer, it's incredibly refreshing to know exactly where my food comes from and to support a company that prioritizes transparency and sustainability. Not only are their snacks incredibly tasty, but the ethos of the company resonates deeply with me. Ingrained's dedication to promoting local and small-batch producers is admirable, and their passion for creating honest, sustainable products is truly commendable. The staff were absolute gems as well. I highly recommend Ingrained to anyone looking for wholesome, flavorful snacks that not only taste great but also support a meaningful cause. Kudos to Ingrained for setting a new standard in the snack industry, and I'll definitely be a returning customer!
