    This is a new Korean Dessert cafe. They serve hot and iced drinks, along with many dessert baked goods, like cakes, scones, fanciers, and madeleines, all in different flavours. Their matcha is high-grade (just below ceremonial-grade). This location soft-opened on 2026-02-10, with indoor dining. Their other location opened in Oct 2024, and is takeout-only. I ordered the following: 1. Mango Matcha Cake slice ($9.50). 2. Strawberry Matcha Cream Latte (iced 16 oz, $7.00). The service was good. As with most Asian desserts, they are not overly sweet. The matcha in the cake and drink tasted good. The cake had cream, mango sauce, and a thin piece of white chocolate on top. The mango and cream, which were fresh, matched well with the matcha, as did the strawberry puree. I would definitely have it again. I also took photos of Chestnut Cheesecake slice ($9.50), Victoria Scone ($6.50), Chocolate Cream Madeleine ($4.75), Matcha Cream Latte (iced 16 oz, $6.50). The vibe is bright yellow, more accurately "butter yellow", as their main colour scheme, and their chairs are brightly-coloured. There are four round tables and one couch for indoor seating. There is lively music (mostly Korean) playing in the background. There are some company-branded merchandise for sale. All containers are recyclable, of which their paper-based containers and straws are biodegradable. There is free WiFi. The cafe is wheelchair accessible. There is one gender-neutral washroom which is wheelchair accessible. There is paid neighbourhood street parking. Review 2026-022

    Cute little cafe that has a youthful, school theme to it. Tried their matchas, which were reasonably priced at about $7. The mango puree in the matcha was a nice touch. The earl grey scone and matcha cheesecake were also pretty good but sort of too crumbly in texture.

    Stopped by to get the viral chewy dubai chocolate cookies but were disappointed to find out that they don't carry it on the weekends. I settled with a mango matcha, strawberry matcha, and 6 cream filled madeleines. When you buy six, it's tax free. The matcha a were delicious, I think I like the mango one more but I would get both again! The Madeline's were also really good, the cream was nice and light with a perfectly light crisp on the exterior of the pastries. The cashier was helping in helping me decide and i waited around 10-15 min for my order. Some seating inside but it was really busy!

Such a thoughtful gesture that truly made our visit even more special. We'll definitely be coming back!

    Very sweet and bougie place. It's a small place but do not underestimate it. The pastries they have…read moreare exquisite, not too sweet (when it comes to sugar) but filled with flavour. A lot of times when we try a sweet shop/pastry place the products are filled with sugar however Asters have found a balance and know how to prepare their stuff. Pastries: If you like chocolate - try the double chocolate cake (it's in the picture, I don't recall the correct name) this is chocolaty, not too sweet, soft but not too soft. If you like mousse, & pistachios - try the pastry on the right from the picture. It is crunchy from the outside, 2nd layer is soft (mousse) and the last layer is nuts/pistachio. If you like Mango (desis you must try this) have their mango sweet which is not in the picture but it's their best seller. It is amazing! Drinks: The mango matcha - again if you like mango, & matcha have this you won't regret it. Mix it properly and enjoy the distinct flavours of both (matcha and mango) it is slightly on a sweeter side though. The barista seems experienced based on the milk texture and the art of the latte. Kudos They have limited dining space so take note of that however there is a huge foodcourt so you can go there. You should also take note of the prices on the pastries, the small double chocolate cake was 10$ however it is clear that they are serving good quality stuff.

    Food/Drinks: This was actually one of my favorite finds in Toronto! The desserts were delicious,…read moreand I could probably eat 10 of them if I could. The aesthetic and the attention to detail when it comes to these desserts flawless, and exceptional. I enjoyed every single bite of my dessert. It was fluffy and it melted in my mouth, and I wish I could just eat my screen right now just looking at it lol. For drinks, we got hot chocolates, and they had one of the best hot chocolates I've ever tasted, and I'm not exaggerating. It was the perfect drink and taste to eat my dessert. Location: The location is very pretty, but it's pretty casual. The seating is pretty close to other guests in the restaurant or tables of two if I'm not mistaken. This is a perfect place to go with friends or family or on a quick date or by yourself. This place looked like it was located on a main street with street parking, but because I was visiting in Toronto, I'm not sure how the parking works as we took Uber. Service: The service was great, and they were very friendly and answered any questions regarding the desserts on display to help us pick the perfect one for ourselves. They also brought the food to our table, including the drinks. I 100% would go back to this location.

    This place always has been one of my favourite dessert spot, and this time they really nailed it…read moreproviding that special TIFF menu with three types of cakes and paring drinks. We ordered Midnight Cherry Royal & Choco Elderberry Noir along with their paring cocktails. Both were absolutely pretty and delicious! Service was impeccable, very proper that makes you feel like a special guest. Ambiance is very elegant and luxurious, totally insta worthy! (or to have a romantic date)

    Oh my gosh, stepping into Ladurée feels like walking straight into a dream It's definitely the…read moremost Instagrammable spot in Yorkville - the soft mint walls and those gold details are just everything. I felt like I was back in Paris for a moment We had the afternoon tea, and the rose petal macaron is a total must-try - it's so delicate and literally tastes like a cloud The packaging is also beyond gorgeous; I honestly wanted to keep the box just for the aesthetic! It's the perfect place for a girls' date when you want to feel a little extra fancy and take some cute photos. Everything is so pink, so chic & so sweet. I'm obsessed!

    Ladurée is a world-renowned French luxury patisserie, founded in Paris in 1862. It is world famous…read morefor its gourmet macarons. They have introduced a high-end gourmet macaron with their iconic logo on it. It is called Eugenie, named after Empress Eugenie, patron of the arts. There are only 8 iconic flavours: Chocolate, Vanilla, Pistachio, Caramel, Rose, Orange Blossom, Blackcurrant Violette, and Marie Antoinette tea. Eugénie is an unexpected marriage of textures, with a crunchy biscuit, a melting heart and a crunchy chocolate coating. This Union Station location is only a kiosk, rather than a full patisserie. It opened in Oct 2024. They thought they were only going to be there until Feb 2025, but as of 2025-06-23, they are still there. It is opposite Union Samples. They mostly sell macarons ($4.50 each!) here, but there are also a few bottled drinks, chocolate bars, gift boxes, yule logs, and gift cards. The customer service was good. Louis-Ernest Ladurée was the founder of Ladurée in 1862. There is free WiFi from Union Station. The kiosk is wheelchair accessible. There are washrooms in Union Station. There is a paid (expensive!) parking lot. Review 2025-118

    Visited this cute little Filipino bake shop nestled in shops at don mills…read more They sell Filipino sweet treats and baked goods. Pandesal, cake slices, coffee, cookies, cheesecakes, and a small select option of savoury food as well. For baked goods I walked out with: - Ube cheesecake: it was moist, Ube packed flavour with a hint of creaminess from the cheese. Enjoyed it. And read good reviews about it prior to ordering it so that's why I chose it :) - Ube crinkle cookies: a basic Ube crinkle cookie, not too sweet (which is great) and powdered with sugar on the outside. Ube flavour is mild not too overpowering, moist and fluffy cookie. Would recommend as well! - Spicy chicken empanada- buttery crust, soft and falls apart because the crust is so buttery!! Stuffing was generous, chicken flavourful but I didn't find the inside spicy. One is enough for one sitting. I would like to try other flavours as well. Service - friendly. Fast. Efficient. $$- I would say some of the items are quite pricey for what you get e.g. turon for $5, cake + coffee slice for $10-12, I think that I've found other bakeries to be a little more cost friendly. But assuming because this one is more franchised, Perhaps why prices are higher (?) Would overall recommend this place especially if you'd like to share Filipino sweets culture/food. They do sell cakes and party platters of desserts which is also a bonus. Would recommend to try!

We were there on Boxing Day at about 10:15am. There was a limited selection of savoury and meat filled Chinese buns at that hour. Baked Char Sui bao, Cheese, Ham, Sausage buns. The fresh cream bun was added at this time. If you wanted Taro or Custard filled buns or Egg Tarts, there were none on the shelves. There was a posted board outside the bakery offering "buy 6, no tax and receive one egg tart". I bought six buns and received a small HK milk tea, which was fine instead of an egg tart. The buns filling and dough texture was so-so imo, when I compare it to buns available at Markham Chinese bakeries. However, it filled our need while we lined up at another store on the day.

I was there overhearing that they will be having their grand opening soon. You can find your classic buns here like sausage bun, pineapple bun and char siu bun. But they also have specialty buns like fried chicken sandwiches, garlic cheese sausage buns and more. Buns are fairly priced here as well in my opinion with fried chicken sandwiches being less than $4. They also sell whole cakes and slices of cakes which looks really good. Interior of the bakery is beautiful and newly renovated. It's brightly lit and super clean inside. The one cashier cashing me out was friendly and chatty which I enjoyed. Telling me that VIP cards will be available once grand opening happens, but didn't know the exact date of their grand opening yet. Make sure to check out these affordable and tasty buns!
