I was visiting Canada for couple of days and asked where to get good Sri Lankan baked goods (short…read moreeats). Everyone recommended Quality Bakery. I was there in the morning everyday for 4 days to pickup my goodies. Staff is very friendly; even let me go without paying since my US card did not work. They told me to come back later to pay which i did go pay in the next hour. They trust their customers. Great fillings on mutton rolls, patties, chicken rolls, and my favorite pastry. We also made an order to take back home to US. They froze all the goodies and kept them ready for us to take back. Highly recommended!!!!

I am so late in finding (and visiting) this place even after living in Scarborough for 5+ years but…read morethis place has become one of my favourite Italian bakeries in the city for sure. They have so much variety from hot food to bread, sourdough, petit fours, gelato, a whole lot of cafe items and pastries that I was blown away! Their cafe crema is hands down the best in the city. Undoubtably. I also got their chicken sandwich and loved it. Their cannolis are also obviously made perfectly and the pastries are so different from any other bakeries. You must try the Sicilia pastry made with orange and pistachio. Uniquely combo but goes so well. I am definitely going to become a regular here.

Good place to pickup FRESH bread (Rye, Raisin bread, Brown, Marble, Multigrain, Whole Wheat, White bread and more). They sell Hot Dog Buns, Hamburger Buns, Cinnamon Buns and cake loaves. They have Mini cupcakes, Sesame Baguettes, French Bread, English Muffins, Cherry Danish, Cheese Danish, Apple Turnovers, Palm Pastries, Danishes, Apple Strudel Sticks, muffin tops, muffins, bagels, breadcrumbs, Tastee patties, bread, and the FRESHEST croissants. They maintain the rules of physical distancing and allow only a small amount of customers in the store at a time. They have stickers on the floor that measure out recommended space between customers. It's nice to see businesses like this one, that care about their staff and customers. It's much more pleasant shopping at this outlet, rather than shopping at a busy grocery store!

Really great bakery!…read more I love coming here to pick up fresh tortillas, croissants and buns. The staff is very friendly and helpful. They also have a wide selection of daily specials like muffin tops, danishes and pretzel buns you don't really find at other bakeries.

Stopped by this bakery for a drink and was pleasantly surprised! I ordered the banana peanut butter…read moreiced latte, and it was absolutely delicious. The banana and peanut butter flavors blended really well with the coffee, creating a rich and refreshing drink. One tip: make sure to give it a good stir before drinking, as the flavors settle at the bottom and it's much better once everything is mixed together. The bakery has a cozy atmosphere with several tables and seats, making it a nice place to relax, catch up with a friend, or simply enjoy your drink. The staff were also very friendly and patient, taking the time to answer questions without making anyone feel rushed. Overall, it's a great spot for a quality coffee break, and I'd definitely come back to try more of their menu.

Last Wednesday, I was at Woodside Square's food court, having an early dinner thanks to Beef Noodle Slurp. Next to this food stall was Baker Duck. I have been to the original Baker Duck at Denison Centre, which is close to my home. It was nice to visit its second location. I looked at the sign saying that if my items totalled at least $15, I could use my credit card to pay. I rarely have cash on me. Spending $15 was easy. The sour note to my visit was a female staffer to brought out three different baking trays with baked goods and managed to poke me with each them. Really? Coincidence or targeted weirdness? I don't know. I could have been nasty and tripped her. Then again, I wouldn't stoop to her level of stupidity. My haul consisted of these items: - Grilled cheese with pork floss - Egg salad bun - Tempura curry beef bun - Pork floss and bacon bun - Hot dog bun - Curry beef bun - Curry beef puff I got a different woman who helped cash me out. She was great putting my items in a bag. Each item was in its own bag. I appreciated it, as I saw some small flies going at the sesame balls. I paid with a credit card. I tapped and was done. I thanked the woman, grabbed my goodies, and headed to my car. On the whole, I loved everything that I ate. I didn't realize that I went hard on curry beef, but it's delicious. I should get the BBQ pork bun next time. The grilled cheese with pork floss around the crust was yummy and unique. It was the surprise item out of the bunch. I make a lot of egg salad. This egg salad was a bit bland. It also had iceberg lettuce, which could have been omitted. Not horrible. It just needed more flavour. I'm glad that I can say that I've been to both Baker Duck locations. Here's hoping that tray woman get her tray-poking issues fixed. (425)

When I saw the cakes, I realized they were smaller than I expected. The box is about the size of a small take out container. I was still excited for it since they all looked so cute. I got the mango cake and it tasted good (like most chinese cakes). Customer service was A+. I was greeted and the worker explained that the cakes were meant to be for on the go. I guess that explains the size. However, $7.99 + tax for such a small cake isn't worth the price to me. It tasted like an average chinese cake which are supposed to be relatively cheap.

I stumbled upon this bakery while getting my vehicle repaired in the area. The smell in the area…read morewas amazing. Located in a mainly industrial area, there is parking towards the side and rear of the building. Inside there are rows and shelves of fresh breads, danishes, strudels, pies, focaccia, cookies, croissants and even a grocery cart of baguettes. I tried an apple danish on this occasion. The pastry was flaky with a crispy exterior but a nice softness inside. The apple filing had real apple slices and was sweet and slightly sticky. Everything was well balanced and delicious. Definitely recommend if you're in the area to try this bakery!

Oh man... affordable, local, bakery…read more The danish are delicious. The cherry strudel hit the spot. The lady assisting was awesome. I hear they serve local business and are open to the public, and so it's not a place you'll sit and eat but where you go pick up to take and share with loved ones.

Each treat is prepackaged but not sealed as it is made fresh. This allows the steam to release prior to the option of self-sealing the bag for future devouring after purchase. Their croissants, red bean deserts, egg tarts, pineapple buns always taste fresher than any of their competition! Maybe because theyre so busy trying to keep up with the demand by making more and more fresh pastries and buns, that nothing is ever on the shelf too long. Never had a stale bun from here or any of their locations!

Generous layers of mango mousse surround two layers of sponge cake, topped with a chocolate bowl spilling over with chunks of mango. Delicate mango flavors that was not too sweet or unnatural. Perfect for those that don't have much of a sweet tooth and prefer fruity flavors instead. I also like that there was minimal amount whipped white cream that you usually find in most Asian cakes. Came with the Happy Birthday sign and a candle :) Only downside was when we removed the protective plastic covering, all the chocolate swirls came off with it. So take your pictures beforehand.

The place was packed, but there was zero organization - no line, no system - Wouldn't recommend
