    Assorted flavours and delivered on time! Very nicely presented and taste delish!!
    Kathy M.

    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.

    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!

    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.

    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.

    Red velvet

    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.

    Chocolate chip cookie sandwich with chocolate icing
    Faithe W.

    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!

    I go here when I need to buy a good basic cupcake. Shop smells great when you walk in. They have a selection of flavours to choose from.

    I generally don't do coffee shops, but may have to start a new habit…read more I popped in one blustery cold morning and had a flat white with one of their chocolate chip brioche buns. It was perfect. Not too sweet! Just enough chocolate that had the bitter edge to it. The service will great, and the ambiance was calm and elegant. Definitely will be going back again.

    walking toward chinatown, this little french pâtisserie on the corner of queen st west and mccaul…read morecaught my eye. the black and white decor, french lettering and, most of all, that absolutely gorgeous chandelier were enough to pull me inside. the enormous crystal chandelier is almost theatrical, with layers of sparkling drops and ornate gold toned arms hanging in the centre of the store, over the pastry counter. between the marble like counters, glass display cases and big front windows looking out onto queen street, the whole space has a polished, old world french pâtisserie feel. no matcha here, so i switched things up with an oat milk latte instead, which was actually a nice change of pace. for the pastry, i went with the chocolate almond croissant. it looked every bit as tempting as the setting, with icing sugar and topped with a generous scattering of slivered almonds. after finding a table, i could also see an artisan baker working behind the glass, making what looked like raisin scones, which added a nice sense of theatre to the experience. aux merveilleux de fred is a french artisan pâtisserie known for its signature merveilleux, along with cramiques, waffles, meringues and viennoiseries, with the pastries made on site using traditional methods. texture wise, though, this one didn't quite hit the mark for me. there wasn't much lamination, and it lacked the crisp, flaky exterior i look for in a really good croissant. the slivered almonds also weren't toasted enough to give that extra nutty crunch. on the plus side, the chocolate and almond filling was generous, so there was no shortage of flavour in the middle. it just needed more of that buttery, layered pastry texture and a little more toasted almond flavour to really bring everything together. there was no cutlery provided, so this was very much a pastry you eat with your hands situation. fortunately, the icing sugar and filling were manageable with a few big bites and some paper napkins . sometimes you just have to commit. overall, this is a beautiful little stop on queen street west, especially if you're drawn in by aesthetic pâtisseries and elaborate interiors. the chandelier alone is worth looking up from the pastry case for, and being able to watch the bakers working behind the glass adds to the charm. i enjoyed the generous chocolate and almond filling, but for me, the croissant needed more layers, more crispness and more toasted almond flavour to make it truly memorable.

    My wife wanted to go there so we went on 2023-01-31 mid-morning when there would more selection…read more They definitely have quite a selection of pastries and savoury food. My wife always judges a French Cafe by their Butter Croissant ($3.00) and she liked it! She also noticed all the  staff speak French sp it gives it even more legitimacy.  She also ordered a Flat White ($4.50) which was also good. I ordered a Plum Almond Tart ($7.25) because it was the prettiest. It was super delicious so it was definitely a good choice! Service was courteous and friendly. You place your order at the counter and bring it to your table. Someone will come around to clear the dishes when you are done It is a great place to have a nice casual time eating and socializing. They make all their food in-house in the basement. There are products for sale such as coffee beans, fruit syrup, maple syrup, smoked sauces, olive oil, scented soap, wine glassware, etc. I will definitely come back again to try other items. There is free WiFi. The neo-bisto is not wheelchair accessible since there are stairs leading up to the entrance. There are two gender-neutral washrooms. There is free street parking on their one-way south-bound street. Review 2023-017

    Amazing place! I…read morecalled ahead to find out if they had this plum tart I purchased the first time I was there. Yet no one answered the phone. No problem. Hopped on my bike and a half hour later I was there. The friendly staff helped me by answering my question regarding eggs and which items did not have any in the recipes. This place was also super poppin' when I got there. It was earlish in the day around 10:30am and it seemed all the tables were pretty much taken. They are adding a dinner menu which is very exciting. Their pastries are phenomenal!!! Picked up a plum and pistachio tart, a chocolate mousse cake and an apple Danish for my mom. Plus a chocolate caramelized croissant. So much butter, and yet so good. Brought my container, which they happily used. The last time I visited this spot back in 2022, I vowed I would come back and take up space in that beautiful bay window seat. Yet I haven't followed through with that yet. One day. They also changed the name, since I was there last it was called Le Conciliabule Lab. Le Conciliabule means, "speak easy", as their website says. It was used back in the day to describe a place where people would come together and talk about everything and nothing. I can definitely say that happens here. What a beautiful concept, "everything and nothing". Now named Bisou, which means kiss. That's actually really simple and sweet. Since every pastry and any food item or beverage enjoyed here is a kiss for your tastebuds. Love it. Keep going team. You are amazing!
