Quelques posts sur les réseaux sociaux en font un incontournable, mais pour ma part rien d'exceptionnel !!!
C'est lourd, ça sent fort la cream cheese … & c'est relativement cher !!! Un mot pour résumer : déception 😢
It was fresh, but it was like eating fresh bread. It didn't have that soft, rich, indulgent melt-in-your-mouth experience one usually looks for in a cinnamon roll.
I've tried Crème Mood twice, & because they're only open a few days a week, I recommend going right at opening since they sell out very fast. My first visit was amazing. I went at 11 a.m. & picked up four different flavours. They were all moist, generously filled, & delicious. The Biscoff roll was my favourite & honestly one of the best cinnamon rolls I've had in Montreal.
My second visit, however, was disappointing. The roll had noticeably less filling & icing, which made it quite dry. I ended up only eating the middle because the outer edges were dry & lacked flavour. It was also frustrating that even though I arrived at opening time, some items (like cookies) weren't ready yet. Afterward, I noticed in other people's photos that many rolls don't seem evenly or generously iced, which makes them look dry & inconsistent.
It's too bad because my first experience was so good. I'm not sure if this was just an off day, but seeing similar issues in other reviews makes the inconsistency more noticeable. Because of that, I'm giving 3.5 stars. If the quality & icing were consistent, this would easily be a 5-star spot.
Forte odeur de produits ménagers / javel dans la boutique. C'est un peu gênant pour un commerce de dessert.
Les rolls sont corrects mais rien d'exceptionnel qui justifie le prix.
Je recommande a 100% ca a ete une belle découverte. La qualité des Rolls est excellente. La chose que je dirais de négatif c'est dommage de ne pas avoir où s'asseoir, pour se pausé & manger tranquillement, le seul défaut de la boutique en plus ils vendent du café c'est dommage. Sinon 👌
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
