Review Summary

Gâteau Brise is widely regarded as a hidden gem for its diverse selection of fresh, high-quality Chinese pastries and cakes. Many customers appreciate that the desserts, including popular options like the durian and strawberry shortcake, are light, flavorful, and notably less sweet than traditional alternatives. While the experience is often described as an efficient pick-up service with professional packaging, opinions on the staff's warmth and current pricing remain mixed. Despite some concerns regarding rising costs and portion sizes, the bakery continues to be a favorite destination for those seeking creative, well-crafted treats in a convenient downtown location.

Je suis bien ravie qu'une amie m'a parlé de cette pâtisserie chinoise !
Je suis une gde fan de durian & j'ai été ravie d'avoir pu acheter un petit gâteau au durian pour ma fête ! Le gâteau est vraiment de qualité ! Il ya de la chair de durian (quantité généreuse, pas quelques filaments de durian ou juste de la poudre du durian pour l'arôme comme certains autres endroits). C'est un vrai gâteau au durian avec sa chair à 100%. Le goût de la crème du gâteau est excellent pas trop sucré & on sent bien le lait écrémé. Le gâteau est moelleux. Bravo! Un endroit a garder dans son carnet d'adresse. Apparemment, ils ont un magasin plus spacieux a Brossard avec plus de choix.

Points positifs: proche du métro Guy-concordia (ligne verte)/ qualité-prix: 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻/ des patisseries de qualité 👏🏻/ deco'happy birthday' dispo en magasin

Petits bémols : peut être ne plus mettre des fruits frais en déco sur le gâteau mais autre chose car les fruits frais ne se conservent pas longtemps (voir photo).
Dommage aussi au niveau de l'accueil : ambiance neutre. L'interaction est transactionnelle & expéditive donc ne pas s'attendre à un super accueil souriant & chaleureux des 2 femmes à l'arrière du comptoir ... C'est un petit point de vente en mode express: pick ✅ pay💲go 🚪

BEST DURIAN CAKE EVER. I bought a cake for my sister & my mom birthday & I felt in love with the cake. My friends recommended me this place. It's not too sweet & there's a lot of durian inside the cake . I'm going to order again for sure.

Cakes & pastries used to be a real treat because the price was Really good while the quality is decent. But lately, price has gone up even for cakes & pastries that are 1 day old. We used to be able to find a mango cake one or two days old for $10 to 15 for 4 to 6 people. Now the cakes have shrunk & the bread, food & pastries from 1 day old or before have less discounts.

Other than that, I like coming here. We have gotten good matcha cake here in the past 😃

I got to say though that the cakes you can preorder for your friend or family's birthday can go easily up to 50$ or more. But the cakes usually are pretty good. (I give at least 70% regardless no matter which cake)… price is for sure more than chinatown & more than T&T, by 15-25 dollars, but you can usually taste the difference.
