Excellent gâteau vegan sans gluten
On a pris vanille-framboise avec la garniture framboise. C'est vraiment délicieux, léger & onctueux! Je recommande fortement.
Excellent vegan gluten-free cake
We got the vanilla-raspberry with the raspberry filling. It's truly delicious, light, & creamy! Highly recommend.
6$ for a cupcake i understand since its a small bakery & i dont mind supporting, however, the chocolate cupcake tasted awful, smells old almost funky & cake part was stale just dry, icing is not edible at all. i tried to eat it since it was expensive but couldn't after 2 bites. It tells you how awful this tasted.

Lu & I is an exceptional bakery! We tried 6 items: Rhubarb & Strawberry Pie, Lemon Tart, mini Chocolate donut, Date Square, Chocolate & Raspberry Cupcake & Carot Cake Cookie. All items were exceptional with the perfect sweetness. This is a charming little spot that is a must in Montreal.❤?
My wife & I tried their carrot, lemon & poppy seed cupcakes. They were amazing, & we ordered white icing lemon & poppy seeds wedding cake. It was so delicious. They also put edible flowers on the muffins & cake which was nice. My wife is celiac, so she was happy with the cake. We will visit again. But while ordering our cake, we asked for a specific cake icing design. They didn't follow that & made another design, but still, it was good for us.
I called same day to see if I could get a last minute gluten free cake however cakes required 24 hrs notice. Instead I got 8 cupcakes since the persons who birthday it was required gluten free.
I am not a gluten free or vegan person but these were absolutely amazing, tasted so good & for sure the best gluten free &/or vegan cupcakes I've ever had. The whole crowd loved them as well. We got an assortment & all of them were a hit
I ordered a cake for my daughter's 1st birthday from here. The taste was great & it was so wonderful that it was vegan, gluten free & without regular sugar. Everyone enjoyed it! However, the presentation was really lacking. The way it was decorated was somewhat haphazard & not what I would expect for a cake costing $78 plus tax. If they would have skipped the randomly placed dried oranges, it would have helped.

My friend bought my vegan birthday cake here, & it was delicious! Everyone finished their plates. I also recommend adding a strawberry coulis on the side to make it more moist, it was fantastic 😍🍓🍰
My incredible colleagues picked up a beautiful 6in strawberry almond cake to celebrate my mini baby shower at the office. As someone who lives with celiac I felt so safe & thrilled that they found this absolute gem of a bakery! Since everything is gluten free I had no concerns & it was delicious & perfectly sweet & light. Everyone one loved it, grazie mille! I will be back for every special occasion 🥰
