You're having a bad hair day, your boyfriend dumped you by leaving a sticky note on the fridge and your boss told you the bombshell who just arrived a month ago as a receptionist was going to take your job? Well..... run to Cocoa Locale. Just try one of those heavenly made cupcakes and I can assure you none of that will matter anymore.
Reema is so passionate about her job and shop, you could talk to her for hours. And the decor is so divine, I keep begging her to sell me her tea cups and artworks.
Really this place is one of a kind. -

It can only bode badly for my waistline that I recently moved much close to this delicious cake shop! Everything about it is enchanting: the cute decor, the lovely owner and especially the delicious cakes.
Try the Spicy Valrhona or (my favorite) the Lemon Coconut. Cakes sell out quickly, so it's better to call and have one put aside for you early in the day...if you rock by at 4pm there's often not much left.
Seriously one of my Montreal addictions. -

We read blogs about this place being great for the cupcakes, so we made a pit stop to grab a couple.
Of course, going in there, we met the lady who makes the cupcake (aka the owner). She's really cute with her bandanna and was friendly to us. We got all 3 flavors of her cupcakes: vanilla, lemon coconut, and chocolate chai.
The vanilla cupcake was ordinary, so I'd give that 3.5 out of 10. The lemon coconut had amazing frosting, so that gets a 6. I like the chai part of the chocolate cupcake, but the cake was dry. That gets a 5. -

It was ok...i gave the 4 star because of the owner..she seemed really friendly and gave great service. The cupcakes were okay though. However I really liked the choco chai- the frosting was amazing! it was really chocolatey and the chai flavours had a nice cardamom taste to it. Overall a good place to try and when you're in the mood for some good cupcakes :) and for a nice convo with Reema

Whenever I have guests I get one of Coco Locale chai chocolate cakes...Everytime, it never fails, she then gets new customers. I have yet to have anyone not rave over this cake.
I have tried pretty much all of her cupcake flavors over the years and although I'm not a fan of cupcakes (not at all into the icing), hers I consistently find somewhere between good to awesome. I also enjoy some of the little touches, like fresh flowers, she adds to some of them.
The owner is definitely a character. She's very sweet and has made a success of her business that she runs on her own terms.
The store is only open Wed to Sun. She makes a certain amount of cakes and cupcakes for the day. When they're gone, so is she :). Hence if it's late in the day, you may want to call ahead. -

Every time I go to Montreal (which has now been 2 times), I make a point of coming to this spot.
Some of the most tasty, mouth-watering, exciting cake experience of my life. I am definitely a pie person, and cake usually doesn't do it for me - except here. Every cake I have had (including the pear, pumpkin, and others) is moist, sweet, decadent, and ridiculous.
I also enjoy the fact that it's such a cute, local spot to go - there is a park swing hanging from the ceiling, and the feel and service from the place makes you feel comfortable and at home.
Taking a cake up Mont-Royal on a vacation brings me to utter peace. -

Super chocolate... almost any baked goody. Sadly, if you don,t get there early in the day..... good luck! The lovely young lady owner/baker will however; reserve a cake for you if you call in advance. I love her spiced brownies & her orange/chocolate cake. YUM!

It is so hard to find a time when this place is open (they are open Wed-Sun 12 - 6pm), but I finally did it! I got a chocolate mint cake, which was delicious. I later got a cayenne brownie, which is really spicy and yummy. I think they do chocolate really well, so I haven't experimented with the blueberry lemon, and vanilla cakes/cupcakes, but will do soon. I was told by the person working there that the cakes are the same as the cupcakes, but just with more frosting -- so I haven't had a cupcake yet, but if I pass by again during the time that they are open, I'll get one.
It seems like heaven in there. Warm, cakey heaven. Go check it out.
