Japanese cheese cake $7
Hazel O.

This review is for their Japanese cheesecake. We came in at 8:30 AM just as soon as the Japanese cheesecakes were ready and fresh. We ordered 3 cheesecakes. Each is only $7. The cheesecake is delicious and not too sweet. Not as sweet as Uncle Tetsu. It is very rich and really filling. If I am craving Uncle Tetsu's would definitely just go here instead. I recommend trying out their japanese cheesecakes. This is a much cheaper alternative and bonus: you can get as many as you want! Review 29 of 100

Japanese Cheesecake on sale.

I'd have to agree that this place is pricier than other Chinese bakeries in the GTA, but the straight-out-of-the-oven freshness of the pastries and buns make up for it. Be warned that it isn't a large bakery (selection is smaller than average), but what they do, they do decently. I've visited this place many times growing up, and they're always quite busy, especially on the weekends. My most recent visit was on a Saturday afternoon, and they had just restocked shelves of pastries that emptied out by lunchtime. I picked up a tray of warm coconut buns (soft and deliciously chewy) and a couple of large almond cookies ($1.00 each). They also have an assortment of other pastries that include chinese donuts, Japanese cheesecakes, egg tarts, fruit cakes, butter cookies, and a selection of buns. Overall, the selection is average, and presentation isn't the most organized, but whatever they do have is nice and fresh. Not a bad option for Chinese pastries and buns in Mississauga (close to Square One, and right beside Erindale GO station). There's ample parking, as it's located in a large plaza.

Ok why haven't I come here before! This is a tiny cake house in a plaza by the Erindale go station. We stopped here after having dinner. We went in 30 mins before closing so a lot of the stuff was already sold out. We picked up a few items that were there - coconut tart, mini custard bun, butter roll, chocolate mousse, mango mousse, sponge cake. They actually give you 13% off if you get 6 or more items. Every pastry we tried was simply amazing. The sponge cake was my favourite- it was so moist and fluffy and amazing. I would love to come back in the morning when there is a full stock and try more items!!

Great local dupe for Uncle Tetsu!  Why go downtown and line-up?

***This review is primarily for Akko's version of Japanese cheesecake, made popular by places like Uncle Tetsu/Love Me Sweet.*** I've gone here for decades, but less often in the recent years well, because...eating sweet breads ain't the best for my waistline. Once in a while though, for breakfast/snack, it's ok! Anyway, based on a recommendation of a friend/Yelp reviews, I found out that Akko makes Japanese cheesecakes as well. A coupla weeks ago, I tried Love Me Sweet's (Markham) version. And I have had a piece of Uncle Tetsu's cheesecake months ago. Honestly, there wasn't much difference between Tetsu's Vs. LMS ($11, no limit). Both were light, fluffy, slightly cheesy. Tetsu has at least 2 flavours, while LMS has a coupla too, but the day/time I visited, there was only Original left. I don't know how much Tetsu's is 'cause I refuse to stand in that crazyass line, then be limited as to the number of cakes I can buy. All marketing hype, methinks, similar to when they pull out that velvet rope, and have some intimidating security guard outside a club! Akko's version? Only $7, no line whatsoever, although if they sell out, you may hafta wait for the second batch (what happened to me), only 1 flavour, same light 'n fluffy texture, BUT less sugary/cheesy. I actually didn't taste any/much cheesy. So the version you prefer really depends on your palate. Honestly, I think this is more than a solid replacement if you can't, or like me, refuse to jump through hoops to experience Uncle Tetsu's! Bakery seems to be family-run, only Chinese ladies are always replenishing the buns with hot ones, so why not support local?

The only bad thing about this place is that they run out of stuff fast. It's a testament to how good everything is.
