Came here to order a birthday cake. I got the Mocha cake and it was $55.99. I didn't have to…read morereserve in advance so that was nice. The staff was friendly and the cafe was very clean. The cake was quite good and moist with a good mocha flavor. My only issue with it was the sweetness. I thought it was still too sweet. I left some in the fridge overnight and it was still quite delicious the next day. Overall, I would definitely come back.

I'm so glad Paris Baguette opened up at Steeles. This location has ample free parking, unlike the…read moreSheppard as well as Eglinton locations. Service is fast. The cafe is spacious and has plenty of tables and seats. A nice bakery with good coffee that's open at 6am! Amazing!! Today I tried their matcha latte. There are many add-ons, like switching out for non-dairy, adding whipped cream, extra shots, etc., for an additional fee. I personally find their drinks to be on the sweeter side. I've also come by for cake, donuts, and bread. My fav is their salt bread, dipped in coffee. The chocolate ganache cake slice is a close second. The crunchy pearls inside add nice texture. They share coupons through their app pretty frequently, so be sure to sign up.

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.

Checked out this gorgeous patisserie in Thornhill for an afternoon coffee & dessert date with a…read morefriend! The espresso here is excellent - well-bodied in flavour, medium roast (I think?), and pairs nicely with the sweetness of the cakes & pastries. There's also a wide selection of small personal cakes to choose from - just make sure you come early since they do sell out! We shared the cream & crumb cheesecake (simple, classic, and incredibly creamy!) and tiramichoux (think a tiramisu profiterole - such a fun twist!). Looking forward to my next visit already :)

Happy days! Chocolada bakery took over a kiosk in the York Farmers Market where another bakery…read moreclosed. We bought some eclairs, a marzipan custard fruit pie and some bourekas there. Everything was delicious and fresh. The eclairs were soooo good. They had chocolate and pistachio. The bourekas came in mushroom/ potato and feta/spinach and were an excellent size. Show these guys some love and stop by. Everything was excellent and prices were pretty reasonable. They are located to the right as you go through the front door.

One of our family members is celiac, so my in-laws picked up a gluten-free cake here for our…read moreget-together at my place. Oops, sorry--forgot to take a pic of it in its full glory. So you'll have to settle for the quarter slice leftover I have... we kind of forgot about it, as they left it in my fridge for almost two weeks. But today we found it, and surprisingly, it's just as moist and good as when we first tried it that day. It's pretty good! I don't usually have gluten-free cakes, but I wouldn't know it's gluten-free at all. The texture is slightly different, but not a turnoff. I think, in terms of sweetness, it's not too sweet--but maybe, since I'm sensitive to sweetness, it's just a tiny bit sweeter than I would've liked, but still enjoyable. Love the fresh cream layers and berries. Since their gluten-free cake tastes this good, I'm curious to try all their other non-GF treats I've seen at their treat counter next time.

Le Delice is located in the inside court like area of the plaza. You would not have notice it's…read moreexistence since all you would have see when you park your car will be Longos and Shoom Shoom. 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..

Red velvet cheese cake for $5.95 was really huge but that is all the positive things I could say…read moreabout it. The cheese was less dense with a lighter feel and found it really bland in taste. It didn't have that rich cream cheese taste. The red velvet portion of the cake didn't even have much of a red velvet taste. It was the fist time I couldn't finish a slice of cake (2 stars) Raspberry cheese cake for $2.50 which was much smaller in size had more of a hard and dense texture for the cheese and had an Oreo bottom crust. I actually liked this one a bit more than the red velvet cheese cake (3 stars)

Little Chinese bakery in Centerpoint Mall. No seating, just pick up buns and coffee/tea. Clean and…read morewell-organized. Come here instead of Tim Hortons next door! It's a much better choice. 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.

Okay, y'all, Patisserie Gateau isn't THAT bad, despite what the reviews may suggest. Frankly, I…read morewent in on a whim while I was running errands and decided to treat myself to something sweet. I had never seen a Chinese bakery sell fresh mango crepe pockets before! It's not like the premium spots I'm used to, with a smooth, perfect exterior. Instead, it's a bit bumpy and there's a bit of mystery about what's inside. They were selling them for $7.50 for 2 or $4.50 for 1. Now, I'm kind of kicking myself because now that I've tried one, I wouldn't mind getting the deal for two. Unlike the Japanese-style crepe pockets that are filled with fresh cream, they opted for some cake pieces and lots of fresh mango. Not bad at all! I enjoyed it! Mangos are sweet and fresh. The service staff at the front counter were nice. Note that I was spoken to in Cantonese, even though I hadn't said a word yet! Well, they got me right; I do understand, so all good.

I love a good Taiwanese dessert with taro, potato and grass jelly and decided to give this place a…read moretry after seeing their pictures on social media. Walking in, the place was busy after dinner and seemed chaotic as people had moved chairs away from tables so we had to make a new table set up with chairs. We looked at the menu and were confused with what's in each of the desserts. Luckily the cashier , where you order and pick up food from was patient. After some explanation we decided to place our orders and were told the ingredients are not ready. Long story short, they ended up making a fresh batch of taro paste for the dessert and replaced the mini potato balls with original sized ones after I pointed out that was not what was on the menu. The taro balls were fine, potato balls were mushy and the freshly made taro paste needed to be cooled down. Overall, it's food court quality dessert at its best and take note to compare what you receive with the photo displayed as they substitute things on the fly. Would I go back? Probably not unless they improve the ambience, ingredient control, customer service and food quality. Sadly, it didn't live up to its hype.

We ordered the ice cream shaved ice and the tea cake set, which includes your choice of cake and tea or coffee. We chose the tiramisu cake, and it was incredibly creamy and delicious, definitely my favorite! The coffee was good as well, though a bit on the sweeter side. The shaved ice was decent; I just wish it had a bit more flavour, but the toppings made it enjoyable. And you can customize the topping you want. I would definitely return for their cakes and to try more of their pastries. The service was good and the staff was very kind and patient. I would say they have a big seating area for a cafe with different tables from two seater to bigger 4 seater.
