    Chiffon cakes sample set!
    Joeann S.

    I went to Vava to try the mini chiffon cakes and they did not disappoint! They were all so airy and light but still full of flavour. My favourite kind was the Hokkaido cheese! Their downtown location also has gelato too, can't wait to go back and try. Everyone working there was so nice and service was very quick.

    VaVa specializes in making specialized full-sized and mini (cupcake-sized) chiffon cakes and ice cream cakes. They can also make themed cakes and special occasion cakes. They just opened their fourth location in downtown Toronto on 2024-07-26. At this location only, they introduced a set of 6 mini cakes, called "Bedtime Stories". Among the 6 are two downtown-exclusive flavours: Strawberry Cream Cheese and Coconut Latte. The other 4 were: Mocha Cocoa, Hokkaido Creme, Sea Salt Oreo, Taro Mochi. Also exclusive to the downtown location is their gelato. They have a series called "Starlight Story", consisting of 6 flavours: Mixed Berries, Black Sesame with Salted Egg Yolk, Strawberry with Cheese Cake, Thai Milk Tea with Caramel Cookie, Pistachio, and Matcha with Cranberry; the last two are considered premium flavours which cost more per scoop. We ordered the following gelato: 1. Double Scoop of Black Sesame with Salted Egg Yolk and Matcha with Cranberry ($9.48). 2. Double Scoop of Thai Milk Tea with Caramel Cookie and Pistachio ($9.48). I like how they put fresh ingredients on top of a scoop, like Salted Egg Yolk, Cranberry, Caramel Cookie, and Pistachio Nuts. It adds to the freshness of the scoop of gelato. You can see the machines stirring the gelato, so sometimes you have to wait a few minutes while they churn a particular flavour. We also ordered the Bedtime Stories mini cakes set ($23). They were very fluffy and medium sweetness. I like so many of the 6 mini cakes! I liked how they put shavings of the distinctive flavour on top of the cake, and they have things inside like mochi for the Taro Mochi one. The customer service is good. This store is takeout-only since there is no indoor or outdoor seating. The store is wheelchair accessible, but there is no door-open button; it can be quite cramped inside for a wheelchair. There are no customer washrooms. There is paid neighbourhood street parking. Review 2024-141

    Thai Milk Tea Gelato
    Monica M.

    Tried the Thai Milk Tea Gelato and it was so creamy and sweet! Though it was a little on the pricey side for a small scoop, it is worth trying as this place continues to spin their gelato, so it remains creamy! The service was good and the shop was very cute and aesthetic!

    I tried their limited edition Brown Sugar Jujube Chiffon Cake. The cake was indulgent without being overly sweet and each individual element of the cake shone. The chiffon cake layers were so soft and intricate. The store is clean and service is friendly too. I'd definitely recommend!,

    VaVa has just launched a new black sesame salted egg ice cream. The flavor is quite unique and it's really delicious. If you're interested, you should definitely give it a try. 今次VaVa新推出咗黑芝麻鹹蛋雪糕,味道好特別,幾好食。有興趣可以試一試。

    Cute little cake shop. I went there this afternoon to pick up a cake for my co-worker's birthday. We decided to try their Taro mochi cake and it didn't disappoint.Its light, airy and delicious! Service was fast and the staff are friendly.

We picked up a matcha cream filled donut & an ube cream w.fresh strawberry donut. They remind me of a Krispy Kreme but way way way less sugar. These are so soft, fluffy, and a very generous cream filling! We are excited and cant wait to try the rest of their delicious goods! Almost forgot we got an iced Pink Drink - its their homemade dragonfruit syrup, peach tea, sparkling water & a lychee fruit! Refreshing but let the ice melt a little to dial down that sweetness level. Thank you Isabella's Union Station team!

    I was so excited when I found out that Isabella's opened a location at union station. The office I…read morework in is nearby. So I bought some donuts for my team. Everyone enjoyed them & the donuts were gone in no time! I ordered a dozen donuts. There are 9 flavours so we double on the first three. The lady at the counter was nice & filled the order quickly. I got the reusable bag as well. Mochi is made from a sticky rice flour so the texture is different from traditional donuts. This donut could probably work for those who want to avoid gluten & wheat. There isn't any place to sit & eat the donut inside the shop. So you have to go elsewhere to eat it. This place is pay & go. You could always go to the food court to sit down to eat your donut. Anyway, I will keep coming back to this location because I love the innovative flavour combos. Plus they change their menu every couple of weeks.

I felt like I was back in Paris for a moment We had the afternoon tea, and the rose petal macaron is a total must-try - it's so delicate and literally tastes like a cloud The packaging is also beyond gorgeous; I honestly wanted to keep the box just for the aesthetic! It's the perfect place for a girls' date when you want to feel a little extra fancy and take some cute photos. Everything is so pink, so chic & so sweet. I'm obsessed!

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

Their pastries and sandwiches are huge! I ordered the following: 1. Pistachio Custard Croissant Cup ($8.50). 2. Almond Croissant.($6.00). 3. Cookie Croissant ($8.99). The Pistachio Croissant had nuts on top, with cream on top and inside, both of which were delicious. The Almond Croissant was good. The Cookie Croissant is a unique idea! The customer service was good, with cheerfulness. All their food are made daily. The gourmet sandwiches are prepared on warm baguettes or giant croissants. There are also salads and quiches. There is free WiFi from Union Station. The cafe is wheelchair accessible. There are separate male/female washrooms in the food court.

The workers were really nice, I didn't try the pastries so can't comment on that but they looked delicious. Only complaint I have was the pastries didn't have any prices on them so unsure how much they would have been. It is in union so it was a bit noisy and crowded but that can't be helped. Will come back here again when I'm in the area.
