Best Dessert in York

"Find it: Yorkdale Mall at 3401 Dufferin Street, The PATH Richmond Adelaide Centre Food Court at 121 Adelaide Street West, 1099 Yonge St, and 780 Queen Street West; @nadegetoronto; nadege-patisserie.com. The lowdown: If you can’t get to Paris to satisfy your macaron craving, get thee to Nadège. The legendarily pretty confections at this bright, contemporary bakery are arguably the best in the city."

"Looking to rest and relax with a sweet snack at Toronto’s favourite park?. Nadege Patisserie on Queen Street West offers French sweets and quality ice cream parlour overlooking Trinity Bellwoods Park. Chef and owner Nadège Nourian opened the eponymous shop in 2009, soon expanding the French bakery brand to Nadege Summerhill."

"What: This shop makes French-style ice cream and sorbet from scratch using local high-quality dairy and fresh fruit. Mini macarons, one of their most popular toppings, are officially back . Where: 780 Queen St W"

"If you’re looking for a good ice cream to try, then Ed’s has to be on your list. Ed is an actual guy who started it all at the Beaches location back in 2000. Since then, Toronto has been blessed with four Ed’s locations serving up small-batch, homemade ice cream that is done on site and with the purest of ingredients."

"They’ve been serving up handmade, premium ice cream in Toronto since 2000. The flagship location in the Beaches is my personal fave, but you’ll also find them in Leslieville, Roncesvalles and Mimico!. Trust me, this is small-batch ice cream and gelato worth trekking to (and waiting in line for)."

"Ed Francis doesn’t care much for Instagram—his small-batch ice creams are all about flavour, not flash. He churns his Ontario cream at a low speed. It takes a little longer, but the result is a denser, more delicious dessert."

"The tiny ice cream shop opened in 2016 after serving cups of creative soft serve via a food truck for two years. Owners James Carnevale and Nick Genova explain the name, “It’s based off of our original idea and starting point, outfitting a Piaggio Ape to sell gelato out of. It was a small mobile gelato bar that sold gelato bars."

"Chocolate raspberry is my personal favourite, but I’ve yet to meet a gelato bar I don’t like from Bar Ape. I still remember spotting their little blue truck at Trinity Bellwoods back in 2014. I fell in love immediately — really, one bite and I was HOOKED."

"Came here for their tropical mango+pineapple soft serve, personally I didn't like the texture. It was airy, kinda fluffy like whipped."

"This year, Bobbette & Belle is offering decorative sugar cookies. No word on the exact design yet, but if the cakes are a clue of what’s to come, then you can expect some gorgeous looking cookies!. If sugar cookies aren’t you’re thing, you can always grab one of the chocolate-dipped gingerbread men, Fleur de Sel cookies or the handmade shortbread."

"From macarons to cupcakes and meringues, Bobbette & Belle is a favourite for many Torontonians. The custom designed wedding cakes may have been what put Bobbette & Belle on the map, but the macrons, cupcakes and artisanal treats are what made them an institution in the city of Toronto. This business is featured in the following Smart Lists:"

"These guys might be known for their pies and and their cakes, but they do a mean cookie, too. Order them by the tray – that's the kind of portion size we like to see – and nibble your way through ginger cookies, caramelised pecan squares, chocolate fleur de sel cookies, shortbread and alfajores. bobbetteandbelle.com"

"Located in a small boutique hotel in downtown Toronto, Spa Zen might be one of the most relaxing spaces I’ve ever entered into.

"As what I’d like to think as the ultimate place of rejuvenation, Hammam Spa is a beautiful space where ancient meets modern. Similar to a Turkish bath, they focus on cleansing and detoxifying your body through the usage of their steam room before and after treatment. I visited a few years ago at their King West location and received the most relaxing deep tissue massage by one of their experienced RMTs."

"When I was looking through the Hammam Spa’s official website, I couldn’t even read nor identify half of the oils and treatments that they provide. I don't know about you, but I take that as a good thing, because we all like exclusive offers, and what’s more exclusive than spa treatments that you haven’t even heard of yet?!. @hammamspaembedded via"

"Toronto's most flamboyant event celebrates the diversity of sexuality and gender identity, with a whole month of community events, workshops and gatherings, most of which are free. There are numerous individual events, party collectives and two festival weekends, with everything based around community, education and celebration. The festival culminates with the Trans March, Dyke March and Pride Parade events at the end of June, when the streets around Church and Wellesley heave with over a million revelers."
