Gâteau Brise earns praise for a clean, well organized shop with clear labeling and fast, friendly service. The selection includes mille crepe, taro bread, mochi cheese sandwiches, and mango coconut black rice cake, all described as delicious and aromatic, with sugar levels controlled to suit many palates and avoid excess sweetness. Reviews note that lines used to be incredibly long but have become much more manageable, and pastries are frequently highlighted as top notch with high quality ingredients and refined techniques. The atmosphere is pleasant and not overstimulating, prices are affordable, and bread earns particular appreciation. Online orders are said to be ready on time, and new offerings continually spark curiosity and pleasant surprises. Overall, Gâteau Brise is seen as clean, welcoming, efficient, and consistently satisfying, offering a wide range of cakes, breads, and pastries that appeal to both sweet and savory cravings.
A few years ago, the line stretched for 12 hours-it was insanely crowded. Now, I've lived in 45 countries, I can say the ingredients, cooking techniques, & final products of this cake shop are truly top-notch. It's no longer just about whether it's sweet or not-of course, they control the sugar level to a degree that any Asian palate can easily accept. I highly recommend the mille crêpe, but honestly, any item you try will be aromatic & won't disappoint you.
Absolutely love this place. Every time I go, I find something new & think, how is it even possible to combine all that into one pastry? Then I buy it out of curiosity-& every time, it's such a pleasant surprise. Really like mochi-cheese sandwich. Highly recommended if you're craving something sweet & savory at the same time! ☺?

Amazing little Chinese bakery. We always order cakes from them. The cakes are beautifully presented, & reasonably priced. The cream is fresh & light (doesn't leave a greasy feel in your mouth), & the chiffon soft & fluffy without being wet. If you order in advance, you can choose a custom cake from their iPad. You can also customize the colours for some cakes. The goods are not too sweet; even my Chinese grandmother approves!
Delicious bakery with a vast selection of delicious items! They have fresh hot buns & they also have a great selection of cakes! We always come here to purchase birthday cakes. They are delicious, & not too sweet & they even provide a very cute packaging if you tell them it's for a birthday occasion! Staff is super friendly too! A go to bakery in Brossard!
First time ordering here for Mother's day, I was nervous considering it is one of the most busiest days for any bakery but Gateau Brise delivered amazingly! I placed an order by phone, the person was very patient & honest, warning me about the possibility of delays but in the end I went, waited for maybe 5 minutes (they were really busy & had to take time to look for my order). When they found it, they even apologize for the wait. I ordered the mango mousse cake & it was really fluffy, lots of ripe sliced mangos on top, creamy but not too sweet. Perfect. Lovely presentation too! I also liked the packaging it came in & the added touch of the Mother's day sign & utensils. My family enjoyed the cake a lot. I highly recommend this place. Thank you for making Mother's day so great!
I was amazed by this beautiful business! Service was fast & courteous 💕 Bought a Birthday cake🎂 came in the cutest box ever! With a cake topper & this cute little bundle with candles, paper plates & cutlery. Never had that attention to detail before. In any cake business! & to finish off the cake was delicious! Not too sweet so it was perfect for me! My entire family devoured it! Will definitely be coming back for more & will tell my friends about this cute place! 💕
I'm surprised. I wanna to try everything, but it was too much. I grab a few things, & they were all good. Everything is light & fluffy. Nothing too sweet, they even have cakes whit pulled pork , cheese & jam .
Discovered this bakery on our way to have pho. We bought a 6" pistachio strawberry cream cheese cake. The cream was perfectly textured & sweetened, the sponge was both perfectly dense yet airy. At $18 in this current inflated economy, it's a great deal.
A really cheap, tasty snack! The custard bun had a good amount of filling & the bun was so soft. The blueberry bun was good too & different than what I'm used to finding at a Chinese bakery. Savoury & sweet options! They have a selection of cakes too.
