What are the holidays without the sweetest, most creative festive desserts you can find? Cakes, cookies, doughnuts, brownies, and more – the list can go on and on. This year, forget about the baking (even though we get that it’s fun) and check out some treat shops around Toronto that have created works of art AKA holiday desserts worth splurging for.

There are a handful of Toronto bakeries and shops with holiday treats available all month long – up to December 24th. Some are available in-store while other spots ask that you place your orders ahead of time.

Check out the list we’ve put together, featuring some treats you need to try this holiday season:
