  Very friendly staff and great selection of baked goods! It’s great that they cater towards so many different dietary needs. However, I wasn’t impressed with the taste of the donuts or cupcakes. They were dry and had a noticeably different taste from conventional versions of the baked goods. I know that it is the ingredients itself that make the desserts taste the way they do, but I’ve had more impressive vegan and nut free food of the same variety.

  Staff is always friendly and very helpful (will provide ingredient list for any item) and usually know off the top of their head if something has specific allergens (soy etc) in it. Now for the food sold there... it's FANTASTIC. Everything I have tried has blown me away. Recently going gluten free was a bummer for me but I've been able to enjoy such delicious things thanks to Strawberry Blonde Bakery!! I only buy loaves of bread from here now, and every hand pie flavor is amazing. Their pizza crust is the definition of perfection (I've sampled quite a few and this one is by far the best). Even tried some Valentine's day goodies including cupcakes which didn't look like anything special, to be honest, but they tasted like heaven. Not too sweet but just absolutely perfect- and no cruelty required😍

  They lack creativity with ingredients and rely too much on sugar to carry the flavor. I feel like for a vegan gluten free bakery they could do more interesting things to help the flavors, like using beets, sweet potato or avocado. But instead they just use more sugar and vanilla extract. Also the cake part of the cupcakes are horrible!

  THE place to go for a sweet-toothed vegan! Their desserts are beyond delicious and have converted many an omnivore's minds on what to expect when eating vegan sweets. Though they have staple treats they also change it up which makes each visit a little bit different. If you're lucky they'll have seasonal goodies available like their version of Turtles chocolates (absolutely divine) and even Cadbury "cream egg" Nanaimo bars. I have yet to try something new and not like it, it's my fave dessert place in the city!

  I was looking for a sugar free cake and contacted Strawberry Blonde to inquire if this is something they could do. I was absolutely impressed by their level of customer service! The lovely Miranda replied to my email within minutes and informed me that they did not make sugar free cake but she gave me suggestions of bakeries that DID do sugar free cake. I really appreciated that they were so helpful and I will be sure to order from them in the future from their variety of regular baked goods.
