    From beaudacious brownies to succulent soup, not to mention the bread and cheese, this is a hallmark of Roncesvalles that makes shopping local an easy choice.

    Good light meal. Tasty all organic ingredients.

    Carrot&ginger soup needs more zest.
    Beet salad with apples was the best.
    Quiche broccoli&chedder was good.
    Macaronni and cheese good for you.

    Coffee amazing, blondie was great, brownie was very rich. Overall good meal for two people. $30 dollar total.

    I googled for some bakeries and Mabel's was mentioned a few times so I decided to give it a try, then another...and another...... -drools-....... SO ANYWAY, I tried 3 things from here:

    1. O r a n g e  B l o n d i e
    (Tangy orange cream cheese layered on top of a very dense and chewy brownie, best texture ever, and dipped in a sticky orange glaze)

    2. C o n g o  B a r
    (Coconutty goodness right here. Again, the texture was good, but not as good as the Blondie, it had coconut shavings on atop and inside. Would go great with a cup of coffee)

    3. T r i p l e  C h o c o l a t e  F u d g e  B a r
    (This thing is BIG. BAD. & BITCHIN' with chocolate.... the top layer is a smoothe and creamy layer of fudge-like icing and on the bottom is 2 thick layers of brownie goodness. Pretty darn rich, so you should definately grab a drink with this and it can get messy)

    They also have a really good selection of savoury foods. (Quiche, GIANT meatballs (B-cup size), salads etc.) All of which look delicious and at a reasonable price too! This place is gold. God, I saw a carrot cake bar, which I (will,must,going to) try next time. It's a far trip for me, but well worth it and not like the other bakeries this place closes late at around 7pm or 8pm! Sigh

    Verdict: -Jumps up with pearly white smile and 2 thumbs up- Ya yo.

    Absolutely yum.  The baked goods never fail to delight, and there is always a wheat-free (usually gluten-free) option available too! Love it.

    Oh so innocently walking was I, when out of the corner of my eye I saw them, the little cakes of gluttony, scrumptious cupcakes lined up on a plate.

    "I must have one," I thought, and went immediately inside and purchased one. A vanilla bean cupcake with vanilla butter cream icing.

    I knew I would enjoy it before I even took my first bite because the icing was equal in depth to the actual cake! Plus it's butter cream, which as sweet-toothers know gets this sort of distinct crunchy coating on it and then WHOOOOSH! Pure. Creamy. Sweetness.

    This was the case... and yet, mine is a tragic tale.

    I bought it, starting walking and ate it on my way to catch the streetcar. It was too rushed! Three bites and it was gone! And as soon as that last sweet cakey ball of precious dessert was past the taste threshold and on its way down my esophagus I sighed, long and loud so that the others on the streetcar sort of looked at me strangely, because I knew it would be a while before I could have access to another.

    I ordered my daughter's 2nd Birthday Cake from Mabel's & I have to tell you that this was the most amazing Birthday Cake I have ever had in my whole life (Orange Cake with Orange Flavour Cream Cheese Icing).
    Mabel is THE BAKERY FOR ME.

    Thank you Mabel you made my daughter's 2nd Birthday CAKE Unforgettable!

    I am in strolling down Roncesvalles  when it hits me... I NEED a cupcake!
    I walked in and told the delightful woman behind the counter this and she pointed me to the cupcake tray.

    Sadly the selection wasn't the best and they only had chocolate with vanilla frosting and vanilla with strawberry frosting. I got the chocolate cupcake with vanilla frosting and to tell you the trust I found it too sweet.

    I did think it was awesome that they have a cupcake club that allows you to collect stamps towards free cupcakes!

    While the baked goods and bread are delicious here, I also love this place for their wide selection of prepared gourmet food. They have ready-made quiches, lentil loaf, lasagna and a variety of salads.  I recommend their special bags of granola - nice, fresh and full of nuts/seeds - about $5.

    I recently needed a cake for a bridal shower and after shopping around for best value I ended up picking Mabels.
    It was a bit of a shot in the dark as there wasn't much info on this new bakery.
    Well.......was I pleasantly suprised!!! Beautifully decorated cake!
    The price was great for this large cake that served at least 20-25 ppl.
    As for the cake itself -it was a HIT! It had that fresh, made-from-scratch wholesome taste which is hard to come by these days. ( I ordered the lemon cake)
    Oh and by the way I tried one of their chocolate cupcakes. It was the best i've ever had! The icing was incredible it actually tasted as if it had real melted chocolate right in it! Amazing!!

    I have found my go-to bakery!
