Whisked Gluten-Free Bakery — Restaurant in Toronto

EDIT: After speaking to the owner and them trying to make it right here is my new review of the bakery, the bakery was generous enough to offer new products and ship it directly to my house at no extra charge to try to mend the first order. We got the coconut cream pie, blueberry scones and the sourdough. First off the coconut cream pie was amazing, even after being a few days, it still taste like the first day we had it, would totally recommend the pie for sure. The scones on the hand was a bit disappointing, the first day when it was delivered, it was soft and great flavour, but after a day in the fridge in an air tight container, it turned into a very dried scone, not as bad as the pumpkin scones, but it was a type of product only good to eat the first day. The sourdough was nothing special than if I were to get the gluten free bread from the freezer isle at any supermarket, it was a lot denser than I expected, but I would be fine with getting it at the supermarket. In all, if I was in the area again, I would buy the pie for sure, but I would not drive 40 minutes to this place specifically to get one pastry.

I drove 40 minutes one way to a very highly reviewed placed, ordered a pumpkin pie, pumpkin scone and herb bread. Pie crust was acceptable, filling was horrible, does not have any pumpkin taste to it, tasted undercooked and was very watery. Scone was very dry, tasted like it was a day old, almost stale. Herb bread was the only thing that was decent, but still expected more herbs and flavour in it for it to be...

They're friendly, have great variety and delicious items. We live quite far, so we were doing penguin p/u, which was still an hr drive it total, but now they no longer do that, so we're disappointed we can't get their great items anymore as we're travelling during the pandemic. Thankfully we still have some of their amazing frozen pizza, but we're really missing their treats. We've placed orders with them several times, they check ingredients for my allergies and are always accommodating. We've had some issues with delays of the orders when we're on a tight schedule being in from out of town & having to change everything to wait a few hours, then getting having to drive all the way back to Scarborough after appoints in downtown Toronto, then being stuck in rush hour traffic that we had scheduled to avoid. I'm still giving them a 5 star despite that as we've been customers for yrs & have only had issues a couple of times. Their food is great. They have a wonderful variety, everything tastes great, the pizza is my fav gf pizza, the cupcakes are amazing. They are well worth the drive & anytime we can, we stock up on their items! The pic of the cake was a custom order, it was beautiful & delicious. They are VERY well educated with celiac disease and there is zero risk of CC. They're a 100% gf facility and are very strict on that, which is so...

I happened to be in the area while they were open so I stopped in to try a few things.

Lemon square - 0/10 I couldn’t stomach a single bite. It was so overwhelmingly egg-y and not at all tart like you’d expect a lemon square to be. It was 60% crust which wasn’t tasty enough to redeem it.

Red velvet cupcake - 3/10 The icing was delicious but the cake was too dense and didn’t taste at all like red velvet. It was just strange. Whatever flour they used was overpowering and unpleasant.

Cheesecake brownie - 3/10 The flavour was good. It had the most skimpy layer of cheesecake on the top though. The brownie was so dense it honestly reminded me of a hockey puck. Three points only for flavour but I would never buy it again or recommend it.

Maple butter square ? - 7/10 The best out of all the items I tried. Not good enough for me to come back. I can definitely make better at home. Strange after taste and too crumbly. Again, the crust to filling ratio was off.

I don’t think I’ll be returning to try other items. To me, they’re too hot or miss, taste strange and just not worth the price. You can make tastier desserts at home. To be honest, even President’s Choice has better tasting gluten free desserts. I expected better from a bakery.
