Creme Mood Artisan reviews describe a mix of highs and lows around its cinnamon buns, with many praising soft, moist dough, generous fillings, and a balanced sweetness, especially raspberry pistachio and classic flavors, while others find some rolls dry, underfilling, or overhyped; several comments note excellent first impressions when opened, yet inconsistency appears in subsequent visits, and some items such as cookies aren’t ready at opening; service is repeatedly described as friendly, but seating is limited and lines or stock shortages can deter; some reports mention a strong cream cheese aroma and premium price, while other posts crown the buns as the best in Montreal and a must try experience; overall the perception ranges from highly enthusiastic to disappointed, hinging on freshness, portioning, and the effort to maintain consistency.
The cinnamon bun was just okay in my opinion. I got the raspberry one, & while the jam on top was delicious I had hoped it would be spread throughout the cinnamon bun
If you're in Montreal & craving a treat that feels like pure joy in pastry form, Crememood's raspberry-pistachio cinnamon bun is an absolute must. This thing is a masterpiece. The bun itself is soft, warm, & cloud-like, with that classic cinnamon swirl that's rich without ever feeling heavy.
But the real magic is on top: a generous layer of vibrant, tangy raspberry topping that tastes like fresh berries simmered into a perfect jam. It's bright, punchy, & balances the sweetness beautifully. Then comes the finishing touch crushed pistachios & a delicate drizzle of pistachio cream adding a subtle nuttiness & a gorgeous contrast in texture.
Every bite is a mix of soft, crunchy, sweet, & tart. It's indulgent, but in the best, most joyful way. Crememood has absolutely nailed the art of elevating a classic; this isn't just a cinnamon bun, it's an experience.
Amazing, delicious, perfect. A 10/10 pastry. @crememood.mtl
I really wanted to love this place, but honestly… it missed the mark for me. I waited an extra 5-10 minutes for the apple crumble cinnamon bun to come out fresh from the oven, & even that one was nothing special. It wasn't gooey, it wasn't flavourful - just okay & very doughy.
The pistachio one was even worse. The girl gave me the one sitting on the counter instead of the fresh batch, & it tasted exactly like that - dry, not fresh, & pretty disappointing. For the price & the hype, I expected something soft, warm, & decadent… not a stale-tasting bun.
The butter caramel was probably the best of the three, but again, nothing wow, nothing memorable. I like my cinnamon rolls to have that gooey, soft center, & honestly? A basic Cinnabon from the mall tastes way better than these.
Overall: nothing special, nothing worth lining up for, & I wouldn't come back. The owner was friendly & staff were nice enough.
First time we walked in they were sold out of buns just after lunch. Tried a cookie & it was good, not too oily. Went back another day & tried the pistachio & biscoff rolls. Soft buns but flavours were just ok

Amazing cinnamon buns 🤩
They were super nice & I love the vibes, definitely going back! I can't even pick which flavor was my favorite because they all had their own unique taste.
