Top 5 Gluten-Free Desserts at Trader Joe’s
If you’ve ever wandered the aisles of Trader Joe’s, you already know they’re a goldmine for unique snacks, easy meals, and of course—desserts. But if you’re gluten-free (or shopping for someone who is), the hunt for sweet treats can feel a little trickier. Luckily, Trader Joe’s has some seriously delicious gluten-free desserts that taste so good, you won’t even miss the gluten.

Here are my top five must-try gluten-free desserts at Trader Joe’s:
🍪 1. Super Chocolatey Gluten Free Cookie Dough
This one’s a lifesaver for busy days or late-night cravings. The dough comes pre-portioned and ready to bake—just pop it in the oven and you’ve got warm, gooey cookies in minutes. They’re loaded with chocolate chunks and honestly taste homemade.
🎂 2. Yellow Mini Sheet Cake
Gluten-free cake that’s actually moist? Yes, please! This mini sheet cake is a classic yellow cake topped with rich chocolate buttercream frosting. Perfect for birthdays, small celebrations, or just when you need a little happiness in a pan.
🍫 3. Chocolate Chunk Cookies with Sea Salt
These cookies have the best of both worlds: chewy centers, crispy edges, and that sprinkle of sea salt that takes them over the top. They’re bakery-quality without the gluten (and without the hassle of baking from scratch).
🧁 4. Cinnamon Coffee Cake Muffins
These muffins are a cozy breakfast treat—or let’s be real, dessert disguised as breakfast. The sour cream base keeps them extra soft, while the cinnamon sugar topping adds the perfect sweet crunch. Pair with a cup of coffee and you’ve got morning bliss.
🍩 5. Glazed Chocolate Donut Holes
One of the newer gluten-free finds at Trader Joe’s, and already a fan favorite. They’re rich, chocolatey, and glazed just like the real deal—but bonus, they’re also dairy-free. Dangerous in the best way because it’s almost impossible to eat just one.
