I have used the Cupcake Shoppe on several occasions, personal and professional. I used them for my sons birthday party and they delivered to my home with ease and the guests were wowed by the taste and personalization of the cupcakes. Through the company I work for we have had several special occasions and the Cupcake Shoppe again impresses. The staff are friendly and communicate well all of my orders have been problem free. Every flavour I have tried have been incredible. Thank you again Sam read more

The Cupcake Shoppe is around the corner from my doctor's office andmy family would always take me to get a cupcake if I behaved when I got a needle. I am 26 and I still get taken here if I behave when I get a needle. Also, it is the first stand alone cupcake shop I had ever been in when the cupcake craze started. So, this place is rather nostalgic for me. For a long time I thought it was the greatest cupcake shop in the world. Then I tried D'Liche cupcakes in Montreal so I know there are better cupcakes out there. With that said, the Cupcake Shoppe has pretty solid offerings. They have a variety of fun flavors that use either real buttercream or icing. Both toppings are great in their own right and usually quite flavorful, though the icing can be particularly sweet at times (I hve a sweet tooth so I'm okay with it but my mother wipes it off the top and just eats the cake with some icing). The base cakes are always moist and fresh. My preference is for their white or marble cakes but the chocolate is nice enough (just not my preference). While I no longer think these are the best cupcakes in the world, they still make me feel better after my needles and I am always happy when I walk away with these treats. read more

Wow! I got the best cupcakes from this shop for my daughter's birthday! DELICIOUS and super moist!!! Thank you for the wonderful customer service! I will definitely be back for more. read more

I'm still looking for a cupcake in Toronto comparable to my beloved Crave Cupcakes in Calgary. I've yet to find it (thus believing there's nothing like Crave) but I was pleasantly surprised by The Cupcake Shoppe. It's down an alleyway (beside a restaurant/bar). I was walking by on my way to Eglinton Station when I spotted the sign on Yonge. Glad I stopped by. A friendly raven-haired woman greeted me warmly. I purchased two cupcakes - a raspberry cake and icing and a marble cake with blue frosting (tastes like vanilla). Also bought a cake pop (no photo evidence - I ate it). Cupcakes are moist and the icing is sweet but not overly so. The cake pop was super moist. A great treat. I look forward to purchasing more in the future. Crave Jr! read more

Had to find a nut free cupcake bakery and I happened to stumble upon the cupcake shoppe. Everything made here is nut free and taste delicious!! Never had to physically enter into the bakery. I had to order 5 dozens of cupcake for my staff and had no time to pick them up. I placed my order via phone with credit card and got them delivered exactly at the time I needed the next day. They have lots of flavours to choose from and if you do delivery they can come in these nice plastic boxes to keep them from moving around. Though delivery does cost abut 20$ extra. Had a great experience from ordering to the execution of the cupcakes. The delivery guy was super friendly and delivered them at the time I needed them. Cupcakes were moist and the buttercream icing was to die for! Definitely will be returning here because overall experience was very positive. read more

The Cupcake Shoppe - Assorted flavours and delivered on time! Very nicely presented and taste delish!! - Bakeries Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I popped into this shop despite the 3 star average on Yelp because my boyfriend and I needed a treat. I picked up 4 cupcakes of different flavours. When I got home, my boyfriend said "Oh, you went there. I heard they have poor reviews". So, my expectations dropped immediately. We cut each cupcake in half so we could try every flavour. I thought the cupcakes were good! Cake was moist with a top crust that I particularly liked, and the icing was tasty. My favourite was the raspberry buttercream. Overall, they weren't the best or worst cupcakes I've had in the city, but they should get a better overall rating than 3 stars. read more

Tried their cupcakes for the first time. They have been around for almost 2 decades and is one of the first cupcake shops in Canada. Was right on Yonge before and now moved to the Alley before hitting Spacco. Had the red velvet with cream cheese icing. Red velvet was not dry, but the icing was too sweet for my taste. They had a few different choices on display (~about 11) of which all were nut free but no vegan options available. They also charge extra to use the debit or credit machine so bring cash. read more

I love the vanilla cupcakes with buttercream frosting from the Cupcake Shoppe. They have a long list of flavours to choose from but only a few are available each day. Sometimes simplicity is best. My boyfriend knows that picking up a half-dozen cupcakes from here will quickly make me very happy. They have a daily rotation of flavours so you never know what will be for sale until you stop by. Their little space on Yonge St. is mostly bakery space with a little counter and till at the front, and some gift cards in case you are in a pinch. Their cupcakes are moist and not too sweet, and their frosting is smooth, rich, not too sweet. There is just the perfect amount of icing on each cupcake. They are priced at $2.50 each, but if you come late in the afternoon you can buy their "day old" ones for less. read more

This is my go to place for cupcakes! I wanted my boyfriend to try this delicious place but arrived near dinner time, so it was no surprise that they were sold out of cupcakes. The owners who is super friendly suggested a cookie sandwich so i went with a chocolate one. It consisted of two chocolate chip, heart shaped cookies with a ton of chocolate icing in between. My boyfriend stated it was very yummy and dimming and tasted like chocolate icing from Dunkaroos. Yet another win for the cupcake shoppe, I will definitely be back again! read more

I'll be the first to admit that I'm a die hard cupcake fan. My mind just switches off at the notion of cupcakes. So when I heard about The Cupcake Shoppe at Yonge and Eglinton, I made it my mission to head down there to check out what I was missing. My only problem was that I didn't live in the area and had to wait until I had an opportunity to swing by when I was in the area. It was worth the wait. There is a reason why the store is still in business and one can tell right away why they are so successful. I could immediately smell how great the cupcakes were as soon as I stepped in. More importantly, the staff is passionate about their product, they were eager to answer my questions and tend to my needs as a customer. I was well impressed. Yonge and Eligible - Vanilla Cake and Vanilla buttercream. Fantastic! I saved this one for last when I tried them. ake was moist and butter cream was just right. James Brown - Chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream. I was worried about this one because I find that a lot of chocolate cupcakes go strong with the chocolate flavor and kind of bash you over the head with it, but this cupcake was well balanced and well worth it. Pretty n' Pink - Vanilla cake and raspberry buttercream - A nice change of pace with one of my favorite berries. Delicious Deliciousness. If you haven't dropped by, check them out! read more

Whenever I come to Toronto to visit - and I'm in this neighbourhood I always come here to get my cupcake fix. I have never been disappointed at their fluffy flavourful cupcakes. For the icing- They use real buttercream and no strange additives. How do I know?? Because I like to ask these things! Plus it's reflected in the taste! If your in the hood stop buy and get some cupcakes. read more

This one deserves a solid five stars from me because last year I custom ordered my husband half a dozen Star Trek themed cupcakes of various flavours and they not only turned out delicious (and on time) but they did a fantastic job with the Star Trek characters and insignia on the cupcakes based on photos I sent them from Pinterest. Like I couldn't have asked for anything better. They turned out completely perfect. I'm sad that other people's reviews indicate that they might have had a less good experience there because mine was kick-ass. Definitely recommend for custom cupcakes!! read more

They delivered Valentine cupcakes to me this February and these were DELICIOUS! They were piped very well - not sloppy - and the buttercream was fluffy and yummy. Note that I like a denser buttercream which is what this was. read more

I agree with Johnny H below. i'm not at the yonge and eglinton area very often so i was happy to hear that the cupcake shoppe opened a store in thornhill. i've always driven past the yonge/eglinton one but never stopped to walk in. the price is pretty standard for store-bought cupcakes. my issue is the consistently of the cake itself. it's more like a muffin or pound cake texture, not at all fluffy or airy (which is what i prefer). I went there around 6:00pm and i found that the tops of the cupcakes were HARD so i doubt that they are baked daily. the frosting is not as generous as some other places, but i don't really like icing so it didn't really bother me. i tried two flavours: red velvet and cookie dough. red velvet - tops of the cake was hard - the buttercream seemed old too because it was hard on the outside but soft on the inside. my solution was to spoon off the hardened parts of it and eat the rest as-is - flavour was fine, nothing special. very run-of-the-mill red velvet cookie dough - tops of the cake was hard - is "cookie dough" the flavour? or the consistency of the frosting? because the frosting was LITERALLY hard like play-dough. i didn't care for this flavour very much and i'm going to advise against it for everyone who is reading this review i'm a baker myself and for anyone wanting to check out the cupcake shoppe, i would just recommend baking cupcakes yourself. you will save your $2.85 and save yourself from a chipped tooth! read more

I ordered mini cupcakes and a 7" cake for my daughter's 6th birthday. Everything was stale. The kids wouldn't even eat it. Enough said. Called to let the Cupcake Shoppe we were unsatisfied and they were beyond rude. Very poor customer service. In addition, when I went to order the custom cake, the person on the phone tried to overcharge me $20 for my customizing. I love supporting local and buy these types of items several times a year. Unfortunate for the Cupcake Shoppe, but they will not be getting my future business from me. read more

So I got a cupcake with Cinnamon Buttercream and a gingerbready base. I feel that there was nutmeg in there. The best part about the cupcake was that the buttercream wasn't overly sweet. The cupcake itself seemed average. It was mentioned that the cupcake had a buttercream filling, but I was kinda disappointed that the cream was the same cream as the one on top. There was Cinnamon Toast Crunch on the cupcake as well, and it kinda felt stale to me. But overall, it fulfilled my cupcake craving for one of those Mondays. Overall, the front of the store is what attracted me to the location. Personally I love cupcakes, and the fact that I work at Yonge and Eglinton and the proximity of this shop to work made me try the cupcake place to sate my craving. The lack of customers during peak lunch times kinda turned me off, but I felt like a pioneer to go to this place haha. But for the price, I've had better cupcakes. With regard to the staff, personally I'm usually a loyal customer if I could build a rapport. But meh. The girl behind the counter couldn't really help me as much, but she did suggest the popular ones and the new flavours. Which is what lead me in choosing the cinnamon cupcake. Maybe I should try the red velvet next time. I think there will be a next time. Oh and I feel the presence in social media was kinda absent with this store. Like the last tweet was four months ago, in January. And the last Facebook post was in Nov 2013z This place has the potential to be awesome and build a loyal customer base. Exciting stuff like contests or like weekly posts on new flavours, or like cool promos. That's what'd draw me to this place. read more

The Cupcake Shoppe - Bakeries Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

A few years ago, I would've given The Cupcake Shoppe a solid 4.5 I'm not sure what's happened here. New owner? New recipes? I was recently at a wedding and I was surprised at how dry the cake was. Their cakes used to be SO moist and delicious. Not the case anymore. I was given some cake to take home for my kids and it was worse even the day after. The buttercream texture is still light & fluffy, but the taste is not what it used to be. Cutting corners, trying new recipes? No idea, but not so crazy about these cakes anymore. I doubt the cupcakes are any better. Their website is outdated too, no newer or recent pictures, same with their Facebook page. read more

I am obsessed with cupcakes. The way to my heart is cupcakes. But The Cupcake Shoppe has consistently delivered absolutely terrible cupcakes over the years, which led me to petition my previous boss, when I worked in the area, to let me handle the birthday cake purchasing so that we could stop going here - it was his go-to because of convenience. He relented but sadly, I got these cupcakes for my birthday because he always forgot. :P What makes me so ragey? The fact that the cupcakes here are subpar and that the service is POOR. What business does anyone have serving crappy cupcakes and having a bad attitude?! I was never greeted in this store unless I was in office wear. In the two visits I had here on my own time when I was in the neighbourhood, I was always ignored or coldly treated. I can forgive poor products sometimes, if service is good and I can tell the management is trying/working out growing pains. I cannot forgive consistently piss-poor attitude with terrible products. What makes their cupcakes so terrible? Like Prairie Girl, they are LAZY. They pretty much slap different frostings on the same two or three cake bases and call it different flavours. That is pure garbage. It shows zero effort. Like I said in my review of PG, if all you do is cupcakes, you should be developing different cake bases for every flavour and not "share" cake bases for more than 2 flavours or 3 if there are different fillings. Product design is lazy. The product itself is terrible. The cupcakes are always stale and dry. Perhaps they need to be stored better or made better. But they are always, always dry, and to top it all off, all the flavours taste pretty much the same. In a blind taste test, you wouldn't be able to tell them apart if your life depended on it because they all taste like Too Much Sugar. And nothing else. The only way to tell these cupcakes apart is from the overdose of food colouring they put into the frosting. Just, no. Do not even bother. It's not worth the calories at all. Go to Metro down the street on the other side of Yonge - the standard cupcakes that only come in vanilla or chocolate taste a hundred times better than these. read more

Went to the Cupcake Shoppe today to buy some cupcakes. When I arrived, I was told that the cupcakes are $1 more than they advertise on their website. When I asked them why they haven't updated the pricing, I was told "just because". I have the utmost respect for the cupcake industry, and I hope that this will be remedied so that this glorious industry maintains its' good standing in the community. Their cupcakes are scrumptious, but I find their business practices to be unethical, and for that reason, I give you three of five stars (2.5 is not an option). read more

I'm a cupcake fanatic. In every city I travel to, I make it a point to try every cupcake shop from Magnolia Bakery and Cupcake Cafe in NYC to Sprinkles in Vancouver. I was excited when The Cupcake Shoppe opened years ago. I wanted to try all the flavours. A dozen cupcakes and $25 later, I was left disappointed. The cake itself was light but lacked depth of flavour. The "buttercream" tasted more like vegetable shortening rather than butter. Next time I crave cupcakes, I'm making it myself. read more

I tried three flavours (don't remember name, don't care to) - a chocolate with blue icing, a mint chocolate one, and just your typical vanilla cupcake. They all taste like something I could make at home but only I'd do it better. The cake parts are dry and honestly, it's just the look you're paying for. The worst part about this place (and hey, I was PSYCHED to go visit this place, my sister surprised me with a $20 gift cert) is that I took out my phone to snap some pics of my cupcakes and the chic behind the counter was all "sorry no photos". I looked at her with my jaw dropped - did she just say something THAT stupid? IN this DAY and AGE, did someone with a total lack of understanding the power of social media and the BASICS of running a business just utter the phrase "sorry no photos" ???? Here's my phrase .. "You're an idiot".. on wait, here's a better one "This place sucks"...or how about "Spend money elsewhere". read more

Having recently been to Red Velvet cupcakes in Washington DC and Magnolia Bakery in NYC, I was curious how The Cupcake Shoppe in Toronto would measure up. I stopped in and picked up 4 flavours: Curious George, Sticky N Sweet, one with chocolate chips, and Frost Me (Vanilla frosting on Marble cake). The cake itself is moist, fresh, and slightly dense with a homemade gourmet flavour, making it so far the best cake of any of the 3 cupcake shops I have recently visited. The frostings are well-proportioned to the cakes and come in a variety of textures and levels of richness. Being a real sweet tooth, I preferred the vanilla frosting as it is richer and denser frosting. I believe they have approximately 9 cupcake flavours available each day, which provides a good variety to choose from. I would recommend these cupcakes and would visit again. read more

I have been a customer for over 7 years now. When i first started going there I would've given them 2 or 3 stars on here. Over the last few years I have become quite impressed with their cupcakes and especially their birthday/special occasion cakes. I have ordered 3 cakes in the past year. Huge cakes, moist, flavourful buttercream frosting that is made just right! The cake designs are beautiful, considering they are all hand drawn and not fondant or gum paste. Every design or theme i have given them, they have come through with stunning and delicious cakes! We usually order the 11" cakes (serves 18-25) and we always have enough for 30-35 guests with leftover cake (yay for me!). Some of my fav flavours - after ate, sleepless Toronto, pretty n pink. There were a couple of other flavours which are no longer available or seasonal. My kids LOVE the cakes & cupcakes and rarely do we buy from anywhere else now - even with the 40 min drive to get there! Also, they are nut free which is great because one of my kids has a peanut/nut allergy. read more

This is my favorite cupcake place in Toronto. I was introduced to this shop almost 5 years ago and I've been hooked ever since. My favorite flavor is the Yonge and Eligible, simple vanilla cake with vanilla butter cream icing. If you want true butter cream that is fluffy and light butter cream, then this is where you should be. The cake itself is moist and has good density so it doesn't crumble. It's not heavy I've had Prairie Girl many times and it doesn't compare. I've found PG cupcakes to be too dense and their version of butter cream similar to sour cream. One drawback is that I remember ordering a cake from Cupcake Shoppe for my university graduation and even though the cake was delicious, the image of a graduation cap was simple a rectangle and a lame tassel haha. read more

I love cupcakes and when I go on vacation, I sometimes go out of my way to taste/try them. These were okay. The selection is reallllly small and I didn't like most of the flavors, so I just bought the 3 that I did (red velvet, caramel vanilla, and chocolate). They were good, but I really am yelping my overall experience, not the cupcakes themselves. What really got me was just how RUDE the lady behind the counter was. I thought Canadians were known for being nice! Definitely not an applicable blanket statement. The shop was empty, so I took a few minutes (not that long, ~ 3 minutes) to decide and I was asking some questions about the cupcakes (~2 questions). She answers them, but starts to get annoyed that I'm asking questions and not being faster to buy my cupcakes. I order 3 cupcakes and on the way out, I asked one more question. She rolls her eyes, answers and walks over to a colleague and starts whispering to her about how annoying I am. I'm still standing there. Really? read more

Y&E Store These are easily the most delicious cupcakes I've ever had in my life. I've tried some from other stores, always with the hopes of hitting the jackpot, but never did until I found The Cupcake Shoppe at Yonge&Eglinton! The cakes are always delicious and moist, and there are plenty of flavours! I love the weekly changeovers. The icing isn't overly-sweet, which is very refreshing - normally I have to scrape off half of it just to stomach a cupcake, but these ones are amazing! We go about once every two weeks or so to try out the different flavours, and we're always greeted with a smile. I love the differently-sized boxes for the different amount of cupcakes that you buy. read more

Meh. Was given a bit of attitude when I changed my mind from purchasing 12 cupcakes to 6. I found that the cupcakes were okay. I think making cupcakes from a mix would've been more satisfying and less dry. The only good part about the cupcake was the icing but it was squished around the box after walking about a block. I'm quite glad that I bought 6 cupcakes instead of 12, not worth it for $3 a piece. read more

Ordered a 7" red velvet cake for a work gathering and it was a hit! Loved that my co-worker w severe tree-nut allergies could safely indulge. Great to have a such a delicious option that safe for everyone to eat, especially at such a reasonable price. read more

I lived at Yonge & Eglinton for 3 years and it wasn't until my 2nd year in that I discovered The Cupcake Shoppe. I'm surprised I didn't notice it sooner. The space is small... 500 sq ft give or take. The display window is magical with whimsically decorated cupcakes fashioned to look like little animals, ladybugs or other animate objects. You can not see the displays without taking a peek inside. Two words: Real Buttercream. This is probably why I love this place so much. You will find these little pieces of heaven perfectly topped with different flavors of not-too-sweet buttercream. My favorites are: Creamsicle, Crummie and After Ate. I live in Manhattan now... fabled land of the best cupcakes. I would skip them all for a Young & Eligible cupcake! Tip: Sometimes they close before their actual closing time if they run out of cupcakes and you will be greeted by a sign telling you to come back another day... which happens more often than not. read more

Open Sunday! It was busy but we were in and out. Staff we're extremely pleasant especially considering how busy it was. They had a nice variety of cupcakes and weren't out of anything! What a bonus! If you go somewhere expecting to purchase their specialty, you would hope they stock enough of it. Well done! Parking was a bit of a nuisance. Nothing they can do about it. Just a heads up. I'm not going to comment on the flavours of the cupcake. That would be unfair. It's a matter of personal preference. The product itself is great and fresh :) See you when I'm 10lbs heavier! Hahaha Love me some cupcakes!! LOLOLOLOLOLOO read more

Disappointing: that seems to be the consensus about The Cupcake Shoppe. Something about their cutely decorated confections appealed to me as I walked by their window, and I felt I had to give it a try. But, it's always best not to judge a book by it's cover, as it is a cupcake by it's....icing. (?) The service isn't anything worth mentioning either. Even still, I'm always willing to give an impartial cupcake a chance. However, the only thing I walked out with from The Cupcake Shoppe was a bad taste in my mouth. read more

Sometime I feel sorry for The Cupcake Shoppe. I feel like people are super hard on them.. so then I try them again giving them another chance, I think how can they be that bad. When they first opened up the cupcakes were definitely better than they are now. The quality of them gone down hill for sure. For being Toronto's first cupcake place I wish they were better.. Service isn't great either.. good presentation though. At least they have pretty cupcakes, which is more than I can say for some of the new places. Its great that they are nut free as well. As far as the prices go.. well I don't think they are overpriced at all.. Standard pricing as far as I can tell. I have paid $7.00 for 2 cupcakes in woodbridge before. That is ridiculous pricing if you ask me. read more

The Cupcake Shoppe was one of the first establishments I visited when I moved into the area. Their window displays definitely make it enticing. I'm not a cupcake connoisseur by any means, but I've tried a number of different cupcake places since they seem to be a dime a dozen nowadays. The cupcakes from The Cupcake Shoppe can hold their own. They're not too sweet, have a variety of flavours, and have great texture. They're also very consistent in terms of quality. I've ordered custom cupcakes and cakes in the past, and they never fail to impress. I've never had any issues with customer service. I always found the staff to be pretty helpful when I visit the store. Then again, I'm not incredibly picky when I go in. The only complaint I have is that it's damned near impossible to get in touch by phone. They're always too busy to answer the phone. They do seem a little stressed at the end of the day; they're not as cheery and upbeat when I visit near closing. The Cupcake Shoppe is not cheap by any means. I ordered a dozen custom cupcakes and they cost $45. The only reason I come back is because I get what I expect and it's very convenient for me. If you live more than a walking distance away, I can't say it's worth the hassle/cost of coming here (parking alone is a pain). read more

I love this place, I have been to many cupcake shops around Toronto and this has to be one of the best places to go to if you are dying to have a cupcake. Def worth the hr bus ride from scarbrough to get one. IMO. I also love the set up of all the cupcakes. Everything is so bright and welcoming. It is easy to miss though so keep your eyes open when walking down the street. Pretty n Pink, is rasberry buttercream icing. The icing is not over powering like I find some and it dosen't leave any sort of strong after taste of the coloring used. The cake is really moist, which you might think is a givin to be a good cupcake but some places make their cakes more densir I almost want to say for some reason....maybe to peserve shelf life I don't know, either way amazing. Price was 3 something which is good. Other ones to try are strawberrys n cream, and cookie dough. read more

I bought a 6-pack to share with a friends. We were dissappointed with the flavour of the buttercream on the ones that had it because there was none. The only one that was good was the "opposites attract" cupcake. However, they were moist I just wished that I could taste the flavour I paid for. read more

Everyone loves cupcakes! So make them right. The Cupcake shop does a beautiful job merchandising the cupcakes, buy falls short on taste! The fact of the matter is, you will never get a better cupcake than making your own, or at a local bake sale. If your looking to dazzle your guests with precise designs, and beautiful colors, then buy a dozen....but replace them with your own when your ready to serve them! Economically speaking, they are very pricey! read more

I recently ordered customized cupcakes for 2 birthday celebrations. The staff were very welcoming when I walked through the door to order my cupcakes. I wanted them to be very customized but didn't know what to do so she googled images and suggested ideas. I had 100% complete trust in her and I'm glad I did! I picked them up 5 days after and I was very impressed. The cupcakes were assorted, packaging was pretty, the icing and customized images...WOW. The cupcakes tasted great. I was very glad when the staff told me to keep them at room temperature if the party wanted to consume them that night. Good call. Would I go back for more? Totally. read more

A must try in the heart of Toronto's retail strip! Well-priced, excellent customer service and the BEST sweet treats! The first time I came across the shoppe, I ended up leaving with cupcakes, cake pops, cookies and placed an order for a custom birthday cake. They've got it all! Now, custom Cupcake Shoppe cakes are a must-have for all birthdays in this house. Be sure to check them out. read more

12 years ago, I ordered custom cupcakes from them for my then bf now hubby's birthday. They weren't as fancy as say Bobbette & Belle, but their cartoonish designs were adorable and more importantly, they were delicious. The only thing that kept us from returning over the years was how they were really far away from our workplaces and where we lived. Fast forward to this summer with social distancing happening, we felt a little nostalgic and wondered if they were still around so we could introduce them to our kids. I can't remember if the store used to face Yonge but it's now in the same alley as Alleycatz. They now only allow one customer at a time because of covid, and certain flavours are available all the time while others, you have to order in advance. Taste-wise, I thought they still taste as good as I remember! (And this is coming from someone who can now easily bake her own.) Their website is the same after all these years though, and it would be nice if they added new flavours. read more

The Cupcake Shoppe - 1 Coco Loco (coconut buttercream), 1 Cookie Dough, 2 Pretty n' Pink (raspberry), 1 salted caramel, 1 red velvet - Bakeries Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Not a happy place. Counter staff clearly would be doing anything else but be there. The taste of the cupcakes, well, to me it tasted almost synthetic. It just didn't impress me that much. For what they charge, they should be doing a better job, both in the kitchen and with their customers. Not impressed at all. Disappointed. Store front looks impressive and that's where it ended for me. read more
