1. La Bamboche
As I've previously stated, La Bamboche produces in my opinion the most delectable macarons that a Torontonian could ever desire to O.D. on, but did you know that La Bamboche is also a place that provides oral pleasure...let me explain! I work close…More »

2. The Parlour
London W1A 1ER
UK
+44 20 7734 8040
Categories:
Ice Cream & Frozen Yoghurt,
American
Neighbourhood: St James's
Oh Parlour you made my visit to London so much sweeter!
Who wouldn't be giddy upon entering a place ensconced in pastel pink tiled splendour. It makes me feel like I'm having a grown-up version of a tea party - sans dolls at a 1950's soda joint.

Category:
Chocolatiers and Shops
Neighbourhood: Yorkville
Alright, so every veritable girly-girl who claims the movie Marie Antoinette or French Bulldogs as they're fave things will go ape-shit bananas over this place and rightfully so. How can you not love a place with a chocolate fountain and velvet…More »
4. Old Firehall Confectionery
It's very hard not to resist the temptation of the Old Firehall Confectionery, the enticing aroma of sweet and creamy hot chocolate as it wavers teasingly in the air and once I've succumbed to the cocoa-hypnosis, I'm ensnared by the fragrant charms…More »
5. Dessert Lady Café
Toronto, ON M4W 1J5
(416) 924-3223
When I worked in Yorkville, I used to come here to get my glucose on. Cookies, cakes, pies chocolate they have all the uneccessary food groups covered. If you are a fan of mousse...look no further than their outta-this-world Mango Coconut Mousse...…More »
6. Patisserie La Cigogne
Toronto, ON M4J 1N4
(416) 466-2345
Categories:
Desserts,
Breakfast & Brunch
Neighbourhood: The Danforth
Had the pleasure of brunching here for Mum's day this past weekend and given how picky my fam is about pastries in general it was a grand success!
I had a fair sized slice of veggie quiche with mushrooms and spinach and a side of baby greens. It was…More »

So happy and excited that this Bayview institution decided to open a secondary outpost in my hood.… Read more »
7. Nadege Patisserie
Toronto, ON M4W 2L8
(416) 968-2011
If you haven't already had the honor of visiting the now iconic Nadege on Queen street and dread the thought of having to take the evils of the Queen or Bathurst streetcars to get there you now have an excuse to visit le petit soeur version of…More »
8. Butter Avenue
Toronto has seen a definite explosion in macaron popularity as this colorful little confection has usurped cupcakes as the popular sweet du jour. Enter the latest macaronerie (if there is such thing?) to throw it's hat in the ring, Butter Avenue.

9. Chococrêpe
Toronto, ON M6J 1E4
(416) 855-5601
Categories:
Desserts,
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhoods: West Queen West, Trinity Bellwoods
Let it be known that sex is overrated, by comparison to a good crepe!!!
I tasted the sublime and other worldly pleasures of the Dulce Pear crepe and my tastebuds are still reeling from the afterglow...to the point that my husband's so sick of…More »
10. Menchie's Frozen Yogurt
Breaking the rules is sometimes exciting like speeding, cheating and wearing white after Labour day [1]
Breaking your dairy avoidance rule is a little less life altering, if not more bloat and gas inducing, but if you're gonna break your lactose…More »
11. Bunner's
Toronto, ON M6P 1Z7
(647) 352-2975
Categories:
Gluten-Free,
Vegan,
Bakeries
Neighbourhood: The Junction
I'm an "East side" girl and admittedly am lazy as eff when it comes to trekking anywhere west of Dufferin, so I'm lucky to have generous foodie friends who always make a point to bring me goodies all the way from out west at Bunner's.
I've only…More »
12. Yoshi's Sweets
3.75 I was lured into Yoshi's by the fuschia pink sign and the word "sweets" but surprisingly ended up with some incredible gluten free bread.
The shop keeper suggested I try the house brand of Queen Street Gluten-Free Breads in particular the Romano…More »

Toronto, ON M6J 1E7
(416) 203-8882
Categories:
Coffee & Tea,
Tea Rooms,
Asian Fusion
Neighbourhoods: Niagara, West Queen West, Trinity Bellwoods
This is a little foolish, but I'm Yelping Red Tea Box solely based on one beverage... the insanely refreshing sparkling lemonade with mint.
A little background... I'm a former glucose/fructose addict with a 3 cans of Orange Crush soda per day habit.…More »
14. Sweets From The Earth - Head Office
Toronto, ON M6N 3C3

While I haven't visited this actual location, I've had the pleasure of purchasing many of the delectable delights from Sweets from the Earth at the Big Carrot.
Sweets of the Earth is a Toronto based all natural, 100% plant-based, GMO-free ingredients…More »
15. J'adore Cakes Co
Situated in the most unassuming area of Danforth East, among a throng of auto parts and industrial outfits is this adorably sweet little patisserie called J'adore Cakes Co.
The interior is small and strictly retail so there is no seating, but the…More »

Categories:
Desserts,
Bakeries,
Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt
Neighbourhood: Dovercourt
3.80 My first visit to Bakerbots was epically meh, but the second visit proved to be an incremental improvement and the service this time around seemed less monotone, and actually really nice!
Again, I was too late for any macaron action, but I got…More »

17. Organic Oven Bakery and Cafe
A cornucopia of GF options and even bagels, albeit deflated looking ones...but still a strong representation of Gluten-free options nonetheless.
The Vegan GF black forest cake was subpar, as the cake portion lacked cakey texture and was more…More »

24 Karat Dining (14)Sure the ambiance sometimes might be filled with too much botox, bravado, silicone and pretension per square foot, but sometimes Mama likes a $$$$$ meal baby! |
Mouthgasms :D (19)I don't always get them, but when I do they are deliciously memorable. Here are those special spots that have teased and tantalized my tastebuds to flavourful release. |
Fevrier Sans Food (29)Admittedly not Yelping about delectable chocolates, cakes and patisseries will prove difficult but here's hoping I can actually complete this February's foodless challenge...maxed out credit cards here I come!! |
November is my b*tch(kinda) a/k/a November 26 day Yelp Challenge (26)26 days and 26 nights of reviews, buckle up folks and enjoy the ride! |

Shopoholism (17)It may be more expensive than therapy, but at least I can always count on having a fantastic wardrobe to show for it! |
Domo Arigato.... (5)Mr Roboto...Here's some Japanese (and pseudo Japanese) places that I've dined at |
Thrones when you're away from home (5)It's no secret that I am OBSESSED with well presented public restrooms. Heck I've even used my visits to them as inspiration for my own bathroom's gentrification (Ahem Le Germain I'm looking at you) Here are some grand examples of what a proper lieu experience should be all about. |
