Hugely disappointed by the $60 cake I purchased from Decadent Desserts for my Nana's 82nd birthday.
I ordered a lemon raspberry cake and I simply cannot describe how dry the cake layers were. What's worse is that the cake was actually dry from being STALE, not over baked. An incredible disappointment for such an expensive cake and special occasion.
I would not recommend this bakery based on...

Wow, I am absolutely taken aback by these reviews, and clearly I ordered the wrong things, which were all expensive. The staff was extremely friendly, but the small piece of cheesecake I ordered was largely tasteless and totally crumbly. I also ordered a lemon square, which was very lemony, but I found the crust to be a little bit too savory.
I may go back and try some of the other...

Brownies that are out of this world! I always buy a full slab . I want my birthday cake from Pam's kitchen! Yummmmmm
It's pricey... but my god it's worth it. The cakes are... well... DECADENT. I've tried quite a few over the years, and I bring these cakes in for special occasions only as a personal rule, because if I was eating these under normal regular situations, I probably would be on the floor most days twitching from diabetic shock.
Of especial note to me, the Raspberry WHite Chocolate and the...

It's a small bakery. There is no coffee and just a single table, but none of that matters. I had a this thing called Dark ChocolateSeymours, it had pecans and was dipped in dark chocolate. Awesome. It came straight down from the heaven. The cakes looked really yummy too. There were a lot other goodies, I wanted to try, but I ran out of calories for the day.
I used to work quite close to Decadent Desserts but never went in. Then, in 2010, I happened to be in the neighbourhood on my birthday and wandered in on a whim. What I found there has changed my view of desserts entirely.
I've only tried a few different things at Decadent - namely their cupcakes, shortbread cookies and the lemon slice - and each is better than the last. This is the place to...

I don't know why it took me three years to step into this bakery? Maybe unconsciously I know how good this place is and it will be bad for me.....??
If it was not for my coworker, I guess I still wouldn't/haven't gone into this place and tried their cakes. (yes plural, cakesssssssssss).
Other than Bliss cupcakes, Decadent's cupcakes are my favorite! I actually feel like I was cheating on my...

MMMM MMMMM MMMMM.
I've fallen head over heels in love with this place. It's hard not to - I mean, EVERYTHING they make makes me happy down to the core. How can anything compete with that?!?!? Sorry fellows... DD's got this one.
Dinah G. has done a fantastic job of providing a recap of just some of the amazingness that DD offers its clients.
I will tell you that their cookies and cakes leave...

OMG
This is the only expression that comes to mind when visiting this shop, this is one of the most elegant and classy bakeries that I have been to in the city. The cake showcase was slim pickings today, I guess they have had a mad rush for their cakes for Christmas and I can understand why. The best way to describe DD is to give a rundown of what they have.
Cheesecakes: Vanilla, Blueberry,...
