Their main location is in Mississauga, and they expanded to North York a few years ago. Service is nice and cheerful, making you feel quite welcome. I like their drink selection that has some interesting things like black sesame latte, tiramisu latte, and grapefruit tea. Their dessert select is good too, with things big and small. Their rolls and cakes are excellent, with plenty of cream, not too sweet. The cakes are beautifully glazed and decorated. The sweet potato cake is fluffy and light. The mont blanc has a nice chestnutty flavour, but is a bit too sweet for my liking. At the moment, they are selling Korean dubai chewy cookies, but we'll see how long this fad lasts...

My friend who loves cake recommended me to check out Tokyo Cheesecake for the Double Layer Yakult…read moreCheesecake. I was a bit skeptical because I'm not a huge fan of yakult aka yogurt stuff. But she was right LOL. It was really good, and it was even better than the desserts at the restaurant we had dinner at that night. We cut the 6" cheesecake into 12 small pieces, and it was perfect for a sweet little treat at the end of our meal :) The staff were courteous and ready to help. It was quite busy even on a Saturday evening around 6pm. There are also tables inside the shop for dining in. Other than whole cakes, they do have slices of cakes available and other mini desserts + a lot of macarons! We did request the shop to write HBD on the cake, but the staff said they are unable to do it at this location (not sure why, maybe don't have the proper tools?). We also tried asking for a candle; we ended up having to buy a pack of 6 candles at the shop :\

2026 Birthday Series -- Stop #2: Paris Baguette…read more I'm kicking off a series reviewing all the places I visited to redeem my birthday goodies in July 2026. Along with an overall rating, each spot gets scored on redeemability (how easy it is to claim) and actual value. Paris Baguette Redeemability: 4/5 (requires app download and sign-up, scan at counter) Actual value: 4/5 (a free cake slice!) Outside of birthday, my partner, family and I do frequent Paris baguette, but with the price tag, I think it is only the most worthwhile to go when there's an ongoing promotion; otherwise, the items can be overall overpriced (ie a special drink at 10 dollars with tax, a donut at 8 with tax and a sandwich at 20 dollars with tax....these are way too much) Go in the morning for the freshest goods.

Come on, who doesn't know Paris Baguette quality pastries…read more Nice large modern location with plenty of seating for those to enjoy their coffee and fresh pastries.

This French patisserie is mind-blowing, and reminiscent of the best patisseries in Montréal and Paris. We ordered the chocolatines, the cheesecake and the spanakopita.

Lumière Pâtisserie is a Thornhill gem--proof that you don't have to go downtown for great pastries…read more Yes, it's tucked into a suburban plaza off a parking lot, but inside it's light-filled, calm, and smells like heaven. The service is consistently warm, and the pastry case is hard to resist. We've tried many of their cakes, and the blackcurrant queen cake is hands down our favorite--tart, elegant, and just sweet enough. Their salted caramel croissant is beautifully laminated and filled with just the right amount of caramel. In fact, their croissants across the board are solid--flaky, tender, and buttery without being greasy. The sourdough bread is excellent, and the espresso drinks are reliably strong and well-crafted. It may look like Paris inside, but don't let that inspire your inner Francophile--the staff are lovely, but no one's following your French. Still, this is the kind of place that keeps regulars coming back. We're definitely among them.

The set up of Le Delice is more like food court style, will some seatings in the open area. When I dropped by this particular afternoon, there are tons of whole cakes in the display cases. The individual portion cakes though not that more choices.. there are around 5 and a few petite fours. Hazelnut Mousse ($3.50) I think it is a hazelnut mousse, since most of the individual cakes are none labelled and I have to ask the server a few times and tell me what each one are. All I heard HAZELNUT I am sold! I am nut about nuts! After my taste test, I think it is more like a creamy yummy piece of heaven with bits of hazelnuts and full of RUM inside!!!. Really light and rich at the same time.. Aside from pastries and sweet, they also serves grilled sandwiches too. $10 minimum to use your credit card and $5 minimum if you want to use debit..

I came to try their mango mochi since I was running errands around the area. Unfortunately they…read morewere sold out! So I just ordered a few of their black sesame mochi. It was $2.20 each or $6.50 for 3. The staff spoke Cantonese to me and was very friendly. The inside was like your typical Chinese bakery. They didn't have any seating but it's right next to the food court in Centerpoint mall. I felt like the black sesame mochi was just decent. I prefer a softer mochi and these were definitely more firm and was kind of lacking in filling. The first and last bite had no filling at all. I'm not sure if I would come back again for these but if I am in the area, I will come try the mango mochi. They also sell other Chinese desserts and buns but none of it looked too interesting to me except their fresh mango cake. It looked quite decent. Also they take credit card which is nice.

Service is always quick, and the ladies working are very enthusiastic about their products. (I was almost persuaded to buy all the mochi flavours today -- the lady made them sound so good! "Fresh mango!") I used to come here often before the pandemic but haven't been that much recently. Guess it really has been a while, since when I dropped by, I realized how great the prices are here! Looking back at past reviews from others, there are complaints about prices, but look where inflation has brought us... Most buns, even the quite large ones, are under $3. And the usual buy-6-no-tax. They take credit cards. I do really like their mochis, especially the black sesame one. And their garlic bun is also good too. Haven't tried any of the cakes, as I don't like cream that much. Some of the meat-filled buns are not very filled, but I think about okay for the price point.

It wasn't frozen and the texture was just perfect. You can tell they use real milk to make it. Tried the hazelnut sea salt cake and this one was also yummy!

I felt like I was transported back to Korea. There is a display case with cakes, pudding, and sandwiches and another where all the pastries (Kream bombs) are beautifully put out. These pastries are self serve - tongs and trays are provided for you to bring to the cash register area to purchase. I love that there are a variety of drinks. Everything looked so delicious and decadent. My friend and I ordered a matcha and strawberry matcha kream spanner. They were both so sweet and rich in flavour - I really enjoyed it. The tarot kream bomb was also a wonderful dessert. There were so many flavours to pick from and they all looked so good. We decided to go with the tarot, which did not disappoint. This is a cafe I would come back to - I definitely recommend it if you're looking for a cute spot to hangout solo or with friends/ family. There's a couple seating and cute decor located on the same floor. There's additional seating upstairs, with board games and books for you to enjoy.
