No vegan chocolate!

Counter-serve hard ice cream (both regular and vegan) with an interesting rotation of unique flavours.
Upsetting to see that they don't offer any vegan chocolates.
They have a very limited selection of flavours for their vegan pints of ice cream that you can buy from the fridge.
Their chocolate-dipped ice cream bars are INSANELY expensive like $7 for one bar or something along those lines!
It seems that they've improved the texture of their cupcake frosting since a couple years ago. Still a bit too sweet though.
Their vegan cakes look incredible and impressive! Great gift idea.

Pros: Unique ice cream flavours, Artistic cake designs

Cons: Extremely expensive, Does not respond to e-mails, Strong coconut flavour in the vegan ice cream

Vegan options for dessert

Recently stopped here while looking for a dessert place with vegan options. Was pleased to find they had 6 vegan ice cream options, four vegan cupcakes and tons of ice cream bars! They also had full cakes, an ice cream sandwich and a few chocolate options too. Really yummy ice cream and chocolate!

Best decorated cupcakes in Toronto, definitely a must

I visited this place multiple times and tried their cakesters, ice lollies and ice-cream. All tasted great, the cakesters being my favorite (so many flavors - every time there is a new one I have not tasted before!). The place does not have much atmosphere so I never eat in, but take-out is fine.

Pros: Tasty sweet treats

Cons: Kind of expensive

Had a large ice cream

I love a good vegan ice cream sandwich, but they were just massive and couldn’t be eaten properly before melting. A bit smaller and a bit cheaper and it’d be perfect!

"Go get your protein and come back"

We stopped in to taste their flavors and decided we'd see if cosmic was any better down the street. I don't know if it was meant to be derogatory but the young girl said, "Go get your protein and come back". Hmm.. I'd rather spend my money at a vegan establishment if you're going to be rude.

Vegan Gluten Free Desserts

Such a busy cute shop with dessert options for your sweet side. I had ice cream pop and some chocolates. Both were excellent which is quite a rare treat indeed!

Pros: Options, Presentation

wondering about the labour

A couple years ago staff were complaining about treatment. Not getting paid, etc. Don't know what it's like now. Never went back. Before I heard all this I had ice creem at the Queen street location - I liked it a lot.
