Best Bakery and Cake Shops in Richmond Hill

"Just as day drinking at Trinity Bellwoods (ahem, with 9,000 of your closest friends) is a summer tradition that’s best retired for 2020, it might be a good call to skip Bang Bang’s 30-minute-long lineup, too. Instead, consider ordering in from the Ossington ice cream shop. Go the DIY route and get a six-pack of freshly baked cookies and a pint of just-churned ice cream in flavours like burnt toffee, London fog or peanut butter cup, and assemble your own sweet sandwiches."

"Bang Bang is perfect for satisfying an ice cream sandwich craving. There are countless combinations of flavors from cookie type, including Birthday, Oatmeal and RoCocoa, and ice cream flavors, including Orange Cardamom, Lemon Meringue, London Fog and Burnt Toffee.
