Daan Go Cake Lab

I’ve been to this location several times now for cakes, macarons, ice cream… and from my experience this one has by far the best service and desserts every time (I’ve also been to the downtown location on Spadina and the one in Richmond Hill), I picked up a small Mont Blanc today I preordered months in advance during a promo for my birthday and the staff working there was very friendly and sweet and I really appreciated the hand-written message card that came with it! 🥹 Cake was of course delicious and a hit with everyone in my family, big thanks for making the drive in today’s snowy weather worth it 🙏❤️

I ordered the Strawberry Swirl cake for my birthday and was very satisfied with my purchase! The service was great when we went to pick it up and we were even offered customizable add-ons on the side. The cake design was adorable and looked exactly like the picture on the website. The flavour was creamy and flavourful, and tasted just right—not too sweet or too bland. Overall, my friends and I absolutely loved it!

It’s been awhile since I ordered here as I felt their quality, technique and craftsmanship have been declining. It’s a shame that despite their popularity, they lack consistent, high-standard work. I ordered their sweet prosperity cake. The cake appearance had visible imperfections but this wasn’t what surprised me (I always knew their macarons and cakes lack consistent piping, sculpting or attention to detail - you can see for yourself in their marketing photos on the website. The flaws are clearly visible and lack refinement). What surprised me was the texture of the horse macaron - the shell immediately crumbled into dry hard pieces when bit into and the macaron filling was hard. Aren’t macarons one of their signature items? We tried cutting it first without success. Biting it was near impossible too. Good thing I didn’t buy the mini macaron sets. The cake was also dry unfortunately. It seems that they have premade a batch of cakes and kept it frozen. We picked up and ate the cake the same afternoon, and even left it in room temperature for 20 min before serving. Very disappointed and reinforced my decision not to return.

I saw a good rating so I tried this store. We were greeted by a friendly staff member. She was nice and accomodating. We asked for bigger sizes but she said you have to order a day in advance, they only have 5 inch ones ready and on display. So that's something to keep in mind when ordering in person from this store. They have a decent amount of flavours on their signature cakes. Initially went for the 24k Mango but got intrigued and bought the Pandan Paradise instead. Not a lot of places have this flavour. Unfortunately, the pandan mousse and chiffon did not go well with the mango compote. The acidity was overpowering the pandan instead of complimenting it, though they were great individually. The pandan smelled and tasted authentic. The atmosphere when we walked in felt a bit dead. Not just by the lack of people inside but the total vibe of the place. Needs a bit more of an uplifting decor or some cheery music in the background. . . .but we came here for the cake so in summary. Come and get your cake needs here, highly recommended. The price was justified by the quality, taste and attention to detail. Would come back again to try other flavours.

Ordered a last minute matcha cake (day of) and they came through! Was super tasty and the birthday girl loved it. They even did beautiful writing on a little white chocolate piece! Would definitely return.
