Excellent quality artisanal chocolate at prices that reflect this quality…read more Was gifted with a box of 6 brigadeiros and each one was a delight. Hefty without being heavy, flavours varied and complex, each one packing a chewy wallop as you bit into them. My only quibble is that they were all a bit to caramel-y for me, but that's just a matter of personal taste rather than a critique on the quality or concoction. These brigadeiros are definitely the bomb.

I have been meaning to try out Mary's for a while now, so I was absolutely delighted when I found a…read morebox of Mary's hot chocolate in a gift box that my chocolate hating husband received. :) Nice packaging in an airtight tin. I made it stove top with 1% milk, making sure to add the mix once the milk was hot, and then using a soft spatula to squish the chocolate lumps. The instructions said 4tbsp for mild and 6tbsp for intense. I went 5tbsp. The hot chocolate was very cocoa first, rich and delicious, not too sweet.

Finally tried the mochi from this place after lurking for a long time, and what I can say is that…read morethey have now secured a customer for their future mochi releases -[PEANUT BUTTER & JELLY DAIFUKU MOCHI] $5.25 * The filling is your standard of what would be in a typical peanut butter and jelly sandwich (with strawberry jelly) * Personal preference for me would be raspberry jelly but I could see how the added seeds might throw off the filling's texture * Messier to eat than the other one especially after cutting it in half for the cross section shot but still totally worth it -[STRAWBERRY RED BEAN DAIFUKU MOCHI] $6.00 * The filling for this is their own homemade red bean paste, and as advertised, it truly wasn't too sweet (this is the ultimate compliment for Asian desserts haha) * The strawberry topping it was MASSIVE in a great way * I'm super interested in trying their matcha version so I will be keeping my eyes peeled as to not miss out on the next time it returns The price might look a little steep but it is a home bakery started by a mochi loving girl (Tracy), and her mom. I promise you, every dollar is worth it when it comes to their mochi

Really enjoyed the pandan mango mochi, it was the perfect amount of sweetness and filling. It was…read moresoft and chewy, and it got us reaching for more. The butter mochi was different and not something I've had before but some how the taste was familiar, it was also my mothers favourite! The watermelon basil was the more unique one and I don't know if I liked it. The watermelon made the mochi a little soggy and it was very messy to eat, I also felt like the basil was too over powering. Overall I look forward in trying the other flavours!

The first time I was here, I was picking a gift for a friend with diabetes. I was greeted by a guy…read morewith a ponytail right away. He introduced me to the no sugar added hedgehog chocolate. I purchased a pack for my friend and he really enjoyed it! Today I came here again, a very friendly lady greeted us and offered us free samples of caramel white chocolate. She always helped us find a pack of no sugar added chocolate in the "almost perfect" section, which is all misshaped/broken chocolate at a discounted price. Their chocolate is good but the service is IMPECCABLE. Will for sure go back when I have a craving for chocolate.

I was showered with disappointment with my previous online orders and in-store experience. I used…read moreto go to this shore religiously. I request that my family only get me chocolate from this retailer, and give them specific instructions on which mix and match to order. Purdys no matter how it's ordered (online or by phone) manages to send me chocolates that I didn't order in my mix and match EVERY SINGLE TIME THEY GET THE ORDER WRONG! And I have to give away those chocolates. One of my friends bought me the coconut mango cream filled chocolates $12 for the 5 pack. I went to exchange it. I found out they have a NO RETURN/EXCHANGE POLICY. The clerk stated, "even if you just bought it and changed your mind, I can't even exchange it for you." For chocolates as expensive as these are I would expect better. That's the worst policies for a high end chocolatier I've heard of. I would expect you to stand by your products, not tell your customers to suck up your distasteful failed chocolate "creations". My last reason for shopping here was the sustainable cocoa farming they spout about on the website, fooling into believing they have some ethical framework they follow. This unfortunately doesn't go as far as putting any efforts into stopping child labour from their cocoa producers. Hopefully we can grow a conscience, because with the prices you charge, you can afford to act ethically.

Still one of my favourite spots for authentic gelato in York Region! They rotate their flavours…read moreevery week, and I'm always impressed by their selection. I wish they provided the option to sample more than 1 flavour per person, though. Staff are friendly and even when it's packed, it doesn't take long to get served.

It's my first time trying this popular local icecream shop…read more I first tried to sample some flavor I tried the pandan and the Hong Kong milk tea. The pandan isn't as strong as I expected so I didn't order it. I ended up getting the black sesame soft serve and a scoop of milk tea, both in cups. Cone are 25c more. Order more than $10 can also get a stamp and you get macaron once u get to 10 stamps. I think both the black sesame and milk tea had intense flavor but they aren't creamy enough and too sweet to my liking. And perhaps too many people order the milk tea so there wasn't too much left by night time and so it also accumulated some icy pieces. Mine got some icy bits. I still may go back to try other flavors. They have few seats both inside and outside and there's a little train table for kids to play too. Nice little spot to hang out during the summer time.

Some days I crave something more decadent and strong, and other times I love something light and fruity. You can buy pints of their gelatos to take home as well. The owners are warm and welcoming.

I highly recommend this spot to anyone looking to try a new dessert spot - By Jacob is excellent.
