We do bake a large portion of the items sold right here at Beaches Bakeshop & Cafe'! Laura, if you decide to "waste some time" please come in and I will show you what we make! Among other things we offer Homemade soup from scratch, innovative and fresh salads (Quinoa, Red Rice, Orzo, Cous Cous), 3 different types of Quiche, the largest assortment of Traditonal Swedish Baked goods in Toronto (haven't seen that at Loblaws) and lots more!!
However, to be fair, in the past year or so, I've noticed that the baked goods appear to be made on premises. And they're quite yummy. The cinnamon buns and Swedish almond macaroons are standouts.
Cinnamon buns to die for and many more.
My partner and I Just crushed two of their cinnamon buns which came right from of the oven (the shop smelled amazing), next into our home and finally mouths. We were both pumped to be consuming deliciousness from what seemed to be a total local supported spot. I was playing frogger with baby carriages, other shop owners and random uniformed kids just to get to the ordering part. The women working there were friendly and not so much in that "I'm pretending to be your best friend" but "I appreciate you being in my establishment" kinda way. It's a little more real and very much appreciated. One of the ladies there had a rad choice of style, very bake shop/cafe appropriate. I know it may not matter much but I find it was a pleasant addition to the experience. I say why not make your spot pop with a solid outfit, it's the total package that leaves that lasting impression. I'm still thinking of which other treats I saw (Triple chocolate brownie) that I want to smash between my nose and chin.
Thanks.
ps.Check out Desmond & Beatrice (750A Queen Sweet East, 647352-2257) for other great Cinnamon Bun/treat options. I love options I can eat.
