Desserts in Toronto

In Toronto, to hang out at cafes and patisseries while eating delicious desserts can be a very interesting experience. The multiculturalism of this city is one of the reasons for this. It is possible to find such diversity of desserts that no other place in the world would be able to match.   
When I want to buy some pastries, I have my own choices. Today, I am going to show some of them that may not be in the lists of my friends and readers. They were made inspired in places and cultures that are not famous for their sweets and pastries.

In Thornhill, Steels Ave W, we can find Chocolada, with a great variety of cakes and its selection of Eastern European and Russian pastries. My favourite is the Poppy seed Strudel, with a unique flavour, but still close to what I used to eat in family gatherings long time ago. This year, I decided to buy a Poppy Seed Strudel to celebrate my Birthday.

Many people in Toronto know about the delicious and simple recipes of Uncle Tetsu’s. This Japanese bakery attracts a lot of people who want to taste its famous cheesecake. Last time I’ve visited its new cafe in Dundas St W, I had the opportunity to taste the Matcha Angel Hat, a creamy and light cheesecake that has a unique Matcha flavour.

In North York, we can find a unique Persian patisserie, the Red Rose Patisserie. This place is ideal to taste Persian desserts, drink tea and hang out with friends. A great Variety of Persian cookies and sweets can be found here. Ice Creams are also available.
