    Churros
    Sam G.

    Nice family run place. The person helping us was very friendly. We had an assortment of the empanadas, and some of their desserts (churros, rumball, eclair). The empanadas tasted great. Really hit the spot once you heated them up. The desserts were pretty good. Prices were reasonable.

    Decided to come here based on the 5 star reviews. The store has tons of beautiful pastries, tarts, savory and sweet treats, bread, frozen lasagna and much, much more! Service: The front store person was kind and helpful. Efficient in service. Food: Spicy chicken empanada. The skin of this pastry is thicker but not that thick - I feel like it had a bit of "rubberiness" - not exactly sure how to describe it. Thick enough to hold the savory and spicy chicken filling but not super thick. The filling was like minced chicken mixed with some veges. It has a strong spiciness and decent flavor. 3/5. Arancini - this has a really nice thin crispy layer on the outside. The inside has a decently thick layer of rice and then further inside is beef. It is pretty big though! Good flavor. 3.5/5. Donut - this is a pretty big donut, dough is decently fluffy. I did find the dough lacking sugar within itself but that's probably why there's powdered sugar on top. The custard was not bad - it was light in sweetness, nice creaminess against the donut. Might try another filling next time. 3/5. Price: The three items came to 11$ which is not cheap in my opinion. I'll probably come back to try some of their cake items.

    This is the quintessential family bakery making sweet and savoury baked goods on site. The family is from Uruguay, so you'll find lots of South American favourites like empanadas, alfajores and facturas. You'll find lots of treats from various cultures like Italian, French and Portuguese. There is also a limited selection of fresh based breads that are reasonably priced and an impressive espresso machine whipping up all your coffee needs. I came in at 9am on a Sunday morning and items were still coming out. I asked for donuts which were just made and not displayed. The service is outstanding. I was asked what filling I wanted and they went out back and filled them fresh for us. I order half dozen. 2 Nutella, 2 raspberry and 2 custard filled. They were finished out back and still warm when I picked up the box to take home. They're all very big, heavy and delicious! We also ordered various biscuits by weight. There was a large selection and equally delicious. This neighbourhood gem is worth a visit even if you don't live nearby! Don't forget your coffee.

    Very nice, relatively new bakery in Newmarket, am really happy with my first visit ; the owner is very friendly and welcoming The shop is clean and bright and everything is laid out nicely - lots of beautiful offerings, and everything looks delicious Purchased a few chicken empanadas which were really tasty and made me regret not trying the beef as well and churros which were some of the best I've ever had Will definitely be a return customer

    Donuts  LOOK HOW FILLED THEY ARE!!

    I am obsessed with this place!! Ever since trying it I don't go anywhere else for desserts My absolute favourite place to get donuts!! Insane value for the quality of desserts

    I got different flavours of empanadas. I liked the spicy beef and chicken as well as ham and cheese flavours. Didn't have a chance to try it's pastries this time but I will return to try next time!

    Spanish donuts filled with Dulce de leche (but comes in chocolate and custard filling too)

    Along with my lunch I felt like something sweet. As more and more donut places are opening up it's hard to find a bakery that has this much assorted baked goods and deserts as MarJo. From the cute little delectable assorted cakes that are filling, flavorful o could stop there! Spanish donuts. What's that? Well for just a little over $4 for 4 I thought why not try! Little did I know these aren't so little but the size of my fist with your choice of filling:. Chocolate, Dulce de leche, custard. All I gotta say is .. try it.... And bring 3 friends lol Lastly but certainly not least who could not love some churros and not tiny ones either but nice size with the right amount of sugar. The next thing I saw last minute that I will be trying soon.... Empanadas! All in all great presentation of food, delicious, fairly priced and worth a visit if you have a sweet tooth.

    Came by for fresh baked goods after hearing such great reviews and also because we are Uruguayan as well and happy to support a fellow friend! First off the staff is super friendly and made us feel at home. We picked up a dozen pastries, from sweet and some savoury and all so delicious and as well a few crusted buns that make for a great sandwich, which my boys love! Definitely will be back again soon for more!!

    I am absolutely obsessed with their mango mousse dessert. Not only is it pretty, it is also amaaaazing. Plus the owner is super helpful and kind! I definitely want to come back.

    Mango mousse, Red velvet, Pistachio Mousse

    My husband found out about this place while searching for a local bakery open during this time. The week before we got a big assortment for my father and surprised him with Nata (omg delicious), turnovers and others. My dad is "not into sweet foods", but had one of everything! Came back today for my Father in Law, as a surprise for Father's Day. We decided on some fancy looking items like the mango mousse (whoooa), red velvet cake, etc. It all was a big hit! The prices are incredible and the variety is always changing. Get in early because lots of the popular items will be sold out!

    Stumbled upon a new bakery in North York/Scarborough. They have only been open for a week or so but from the taste of the pastries and churros they definitely know what they are doing. It is a small cafe style bakery which offers european style pastries, Argentinean empandas, and delicious churros. It was a great find and hopefully they are here for a long time

    Variety of choices at $2.99 each.

    Pastries at $2.99 each. Rum balls at $1.99 each. Butter cookies at $11.99/lb. Churros at $1.25 each. Fillings: chocolate and caramel at $0.75 each. I ordered the following: Mango mousse x3 Pistachio roll x4. Choco mousse x2 Ferrero x2 Pistachio mousse x2. Napolitan x2. Hazelnut x2. Chocolate x2. Exquisite selection and taste. Prices are reasonable.

It was refreshing and the melon were fresh. I'm not a big fan in the end, but still good. My girlfriend took mango cheesecake one and she really liked it. There's is also drink and many from current or past scent like ive concert and BTS. I would like to try one of their drink next. As for the size, you can get them in cup or bowl. The bowl are huge, easily shareable by 2 to 4 person.

So the bear itself in the affogato was a solid icy chunk of milk (coz we chose the milk flavour) that just frozen. We added the affogato on top of it and while it looked aesthetic, the dessert didn't make sense at all. We were unable to break the frozen chunk or be able to mix it with the coffee and the coffee mixed with that frozen chunk submerged tasted really bad. Paying $16 for that wasn't worth it at all. The bingsu was good though. We got the mango bingsu bowl and it came loaded with mangoes and a marshmallow and an oreo cookie to make it look pretty! I don't think I'd come back to try anything else here. Was a little disappointed.

    One of the only places to get Late-Night dessert! Holy Choco stays open till 4 AM which means you…read morecan satisfy your sweet tooth at (almost) any hour of the day Their menu is HUGE and unfortunately has some steep pricing, but the food quality is excellent. Delicious desserts, waffles ice cream, smoothies, and more. We ordered: Medium Mango Smoothie - $7.95 Simple Pleasures Waffle - $15.50 The waffle was light and fluffy and the toppings of fruit and chocolate were a great combination. I requested to be lighter on the chocolate but there was still a LOT of chocolate on our waffle. The mango smoothie was refreshing and sweet. I started going to Holy Choco when they first opened and their service was really good from some of the owner. Super attentive and caring staff. Unfortunately, it's since gone downhill since they've hired new staff and we had a number of small problems when visiting this time (dirty tables, dirty cutlery, requested if our food could be put in to go containers because they didn't want to do dishes, unfriendly, etc.) I hope they improve upon these staffing issues soon. Their seating area is good for friends and groups to loiter. Also, if you plan on bringing a laptop, they have MANY OUTLETS!!

    Holy heck this dessert spot by Wellington Station was amazing…read more Highly recommend the dessert wheel ("Fondue for 2-3" $29.99). We chose dark chocolate, milk chocolate, and Nutella. For items: we chose strawberry, banana, halal marshmallow, waffle bites, brownie bites, and Oreo with a round of cappuccino's ($5.50 each). The interior is nicely decorated with a cute angel photo op in the back, and window bar seats and couches to choose from. Great spot for 2-4 people. The only criticism I could have was it took a while to get our order. So, it's not one of those places you can be dipping into expecting to be done in 20mins! We stayed for nearly 3 hours and enjoyed ourselves thoroughly.
