I've been meaning to try out this place for the longest time, but since this is their only location…read moreand I live quite far away I was super excited when I was nearby one day. I got 6 macarons, hk milk tea, black sesame, Oreo, creme brûlée, matcha and pistachio. Came to $21, but 6 no taxes. Every bite was delicious as the next. I really enjoyed the black sesame. I also wanted the ice cream sandwich but decided against the mess my kids would make in the car so I will get it for sure next time! I love the variety of their flavours. Definitely made it hard to choose!

I've been a patron of Dainties for years and I always get their Macaron Ice Cream Sandwiches! We're…read moretalking about a 1-inch slab of ice cream between two flawless palm-sized macarons. You can't go wrong with any of their premium flavours. Each one of them is tuned to perfection, with an emphasis on Asian flavours. I always feel like a kid in a candy store here. Perhaps it's because of the colourful display from the moment you step inside, or the seemingly endless list of flavours on the wall staring back at you, or maybe it's because the moment you swing open the door, a friendly storeowner readily appears at your service? Hm... what will I have today? Pro tip: as the store owner would tell you, wait a few min for the ice cream sandwich to thaw before biting in. About 5 min is good and enough time to take Yelp pics. The only unfortunate thing for me is that they're downtown and I'm uptown! Regardless, I always make an effort to drop by whenever I can. Their opening hours are not too friendly though... But I guess you can say that adds to their appeal. This little shop could really use more publicity. I believe we have to get more people eating macaron ice cream sandwiches this summer. I highly recommend!!!

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

Each Labubu macaron in the set has a different flavor ranging from Ovaltine, Coffee Hazelnut to Jasmine. They also sell artistic cakes (, , ), cupcakes, cookies and Asian-inspired ice cream.

If you haven't tried egg tart, miso, kaya butter toast, lemon tea and durian as an ice cream flavor, this is your chance!! Staff was nice but the place is not too big.

I ordered online and this was not indicated unless you scrutinize the pics. But tbh you cant tell (with the taste) until you really analyze it. Also compliments to their designer! Look how fun and inviting the packaging look!

This patisserie in the path is such a quiet place that barely has customers every time I've walked by ...now I know why. There was only one person when I stopped by, popped in to grab a quick little treat for a coworker's birthday. The one girl working didn't acknowledge me at all until she had no other choice, not a simple "I'll be with you in a second" or even a glance/nod over. Vibes were very off. Also she was the slowest mover I've ever seen, it felt like all her movements were in slow-mo from wrapping, packaging the processing payment. I've literally never seen a human worker move at that pace. Even after the other customer wrapped up and left it took her at least another minute before looking up at me. When I picked my item, again... she was moving at a pace where natural selection would've definitely taken her out. Not sure what was going on but it was weird. The air was stiff as there wasn't any customer service, kindness or even welcoming in the store. And the audacity of the machine to ask for a tip???? For what? Packing up a pastry at a snails pace? Tipping culture has really gotten out of hand. Grabbed my item and left, with no intent of ever returning if I'm paying premium prices for pastries, there are much better, friendlier and QUICKER places to go to. +1 star for the pretty pastry.

I hadn't realized until I was writing this review that I had been here! I don't know if last time they didn't do ice cream or it just wasn't on my radar since we came more in the winter but it was nice to try sometime different this time around. I also think it didn't ping my memory as a lot of the baked goods were sold out by the end of the day when we arrived. Either way, we were here for the ice cream! I went with the mango and vanilla twist in a cup which was nice. The mango was a bit tart which paired with the vanilla nicely. The menu said it was topped with fresh mango and I only got one piece right on top so I found that a bit disappointing as the mango was delicious with the ice cream. I would have gladly paid extra for a bit more. The ice cream in general wasn't overly rich, and seemed to have a bit more of a water content than I was expecting (vs. more creamy) but it still tasted quite good. It just melted VERY quickly in the heat. Staff was REALLY sweet though. And though it was a Saturday night shortly before close (and they were quite busy) they were very efficient and kind.
