Une récente visite m'a bien déçue. Si le gâteau pour 6 était petit avant, il a maintenant la taille d'un gros MaeWest. & le prix est passé de 13$ à 18$. Je n'ai pas remarqué au magasin la réduflation qu'a subie le gâteau. Mais j'étais gênée devant mes invités. Le gâteau au chocolat est toujours aussi bon mais la portion est ridicule pour le prix. Dommage!

I discovered this little gem over 20 years ago... After moving across the city, I found myself back in the neighborhood a few months ago-& suddenly, I remembered the unforgettable chocolate chai cake! SIMPLY THE BEST. The texture, the flavors-absolutely perfect.
Today was my son's 17th birthday, & that memory came rushing back… so across town I went, hoping for a slice of nostalgia. & there it was-serendipity! The last two traditional chocolate cakes (not chai, but still divine).

THANK YOU, BEAUTIFUL SOUL, for continuing to make magic. ♥?

We got our wedding cake here 18 years ago. A regular refresh of their cake-goodness still keeps us going strong.

Les gâteaux sont savoureux, mes préférés à Montréal! Des beaux accords de saveurs & des textures parfaites. ✨ Je recommande à toutes mes amies foodies.

(À noter que la carte n'est pas acceptée pour le paiement & que vous ne pouvez pas faire de réservation de gâteau, ni faire écrire quoi que ce soit dessus. Ces petits points font malheureusement perdre une étoile pour moi).

Joining everyone else who raves about this spot to give my 5 stars. Absolutely terrific cake, & I say this as someone who usually doesn't like the stuff. Perfect size, reasonably priced, & friendly service. Highly recommend.

This bakery is a true hidden gem! It's been in business since 2005 & I'd been wanting to try it for ages, & now it's my go-to for cakes. The portions are perfect either for 4-6 people or 10 which makes it so convenient when you don't need a huge cake. The owner is incredibly sweet (she even offers a candle!), & the prices are extremely fair. Everything tastes homemade in the best possible way. Highly recommend!

Wow! I love rima! But I might love her chocolate cupcakes a little more haha! The quality & just everything was amazing! I have not found chocolate cake as good as this anywhere else in a very long time. Must try if you're a chocolate cake lover.

I got two chocolate cakes for a special occasion & they were absolutely delicious. One was regular, one was chai (ginger + cardamom). The crumb was so tender, & the icing was just the right amount of sweet. These are some of the best cakes I've ever had, & they are affordable ($10 for small, $25 for large).
