Celena's is near the corner of Danforth/Woodbine, across from the East Lynn part…read more Accessible-friendly, though a but tight at the entry. A friend ordered a cherry pie $18 and a chocolate cupcake $4 for me to pick up. They have an order online option. They can improve and edit to show instead "cupcake" and not its plural form, which is misleading when that's placed alongside a picture of 4 mini cupcakes. Overall, the cupcake is on the sweeter side for me. Cherry pie filling was like expected - tart with plump cherries. The pie dough is average and though I shouldnt do this, I compare all pie shops I visit to Wanda's Pie In the Sky, but that's just not completely fair when they're supreme. The crust at Celena's isnt the most buttery or flakey, in fact they missed to oil/butter the tray the pie was in so trying to take any slices meant you got only the bottom and the top of the pie. No backs to the pie. Could be done better. The space is large with a lot of seating.

We also have bought their Cornish pasties, and quiches. Very good. The sourdough bread is excellent, and if you are looking for a small cake for 2-4, they always have great options. I have not had everything, but can also recommend their cookies and their pecan brownies. There is a small seating area with about a half dozen tables. Take away is steady. You will find it busy during lunch hour. They are open at 7 am on weekdays so great for those heading to work. Parking is on the street.

They don't do delivery which is probably a good thing lol I would order something every day .

We visited Sweet Addictions on Danforth and really enjoyed the welcoming atmosphere. This…read morefamily-run bakery and dessert shop is well known in the East End for its wide selection of cakes, pastries, cookies, cupcakes, and South Asian sweets. Everything in the display case looked fresh and beautifully presented, and there were plenty of tempting options to choose from. We tried the "Dulce de Leche Cheesecake", "Pistachio Éclair", "Carrot Cake", "Hazelnut Crunch", and "Strawberry Shortcake", along with a "Latte" and "Dirty Matcha. The desserts were rich, flavourful, and nicely made, with each one offering its own unique texture and taste. The drinks paired well with the sweets. The staff were friendly, and the shop had a warm neighborhood feel. There's street parking available on Danforth Avenue.

The place is bright and oh so clean! Spotless is a word I would rarely apply to restaurants and such, but this place was spotless. Service was efficient and quick. I got a "Russian Chocolate Tale" and an Americano. The coffee was good, a sort of standard blend, not bitter, smooth. The Tale was chocolate mousse on top of a chocolate cookie covered by a layer of vanilla-ish mousse-ish and some pink stuff. (Can you tell I'm not a desserts expert?) Both mousses were delicate and not too sweet, but I got nothing from the outer pink layer. Their selection is an amazing array of standard Western European pastries and desserts. And a Dubai chocolate bar in the $30 adjacent area if you feel like being trendy. Overall, another fine addition to the many great bakeries and dessert places on the Danforth.

This time I visited their store at 1352 Danforth Ave. They are so amazingly delicious! I had to slowly savour each yummy bite. The crust is more bread like and this one was fresh from the oven so the filling was still warm and swishing around. And the rich textures were so gorgeous to look at! Highly recommended! The store is very small but filled with yummy freshly baked goods! I received friendly service and got to watch one of the bakers working behind the counter.

Parking is a bit tight and chaotic, but I did notice a sign mentioning additional rear parking on weekends, which is helpful. Before even stepping inside, the patio caught my eye. Definitely a great spot for when the weather warms up. Inside, the space is thoughtfully laid out with a variety of seating options and shelves of packaged goods like coffee and cookies. As you move through the winding line, you pass by their fridge and freezer items (think ready-to-go meals like shepherd's pie and grab-and-go options like chia pudding), followed by freshly baked breads. Honestly, the hot honey pizza focaccia looked incredible! Last was the drink menu and their pastry display. It's the kind of setup where you can't help but look at everything. I went in knowing I wanted the iced banana matcha, and also picked up an almond croissant and a carrot walnut loaf. Service was friendly and welcoming. The iced banana matcha met my expectations based on what I'd heard. It's not the strongest matcha if you're a purist, but it leans more toward a dessert-style drink with really enjoyable flavors. It's definitely on the sweeter side, but even as someone who prefers "not too sweet," I still loved it. The almond croissant was beautifully flaky with a rich, flavorful filling, and I appreciated the generous amount of sliced almonds on top for added texture. The carrot walnut loaf was another standout. It was super moist and well-balanced, not overly sweet even with the icing. Overall, everything felt thoughtfully made and high quality. I just wish it were closer so I could visit more often. They have such an extensive menu, and I'd love to try more next time.
