Kelly’s Bake Shoppe – Amazing Bakery Gem in Burlington, Ontario

[Read in 3 mins.]

Burlington, Ontario in Canada is a city part of the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) west. It’s popular for visitors who want to escape the busy Toronto and find great local food and shop outside the city. When you want to get away from the crowd, I definitely recommend venturing out to Brant Street in Burlington. I ended up here just recently last week because I found out that there’s an amazing bakery on Brant Street that has delicious cupcakes!

Kelly’s Bake Shoppe is an award-winning local Burlington bake shoppe where you can get great selection of cupcakes. Ranging from plant-based, gluten-free, peanut-free, and vegan cupcakes, and other great baked goods, this place is for sure to satisfy your sweet teeth.

I found out about this place when I saw dozens of cupcakes and a cake for my 7 year old niece’s birthday. I asked my sister-in-law where she got them and told me there’s this cute bake shoppe in Burlington that has amazing cupcakes. Apparently, this place is so popular that her fellow moms in her daughter’s class order cakes here for their kids birthday and special occasions! Every time I pass by Burlington or even when I walk on Brant Street, I make sure to stop by this place to eat a cupcake (or two or more) with a Pilot Coffee Roasters brew! I even order more to bring home for my family!

Kelly’s Bake Shoppe

Started by a mom and daughter duo back in 2012, this yummy sweet shop has been making headlines locally, in the GTA area, and even globally for their creative cupcake designs and healthy approach on baked good treats. All locally sourced, organic fair trade, and no artificial flavouring! Everything is made with love XO!

They attract so many visitors all over the world from Germany, U.A.E., Italy, and other provinces. I also do it when I have relatives and friends who visit me from out of town, I go out of my way to go here to make them try their cupcakes. This place is so amazing that they’ve been featured #3 in Buzzfeed’s 25 Sweet Cupcake Shops Around The World To Eat At Before You Die. Narcity also listed them in their 15 Bucket List GTA Restaurants All Vegans Need To Try ASAP.

It is located at the heart of Burlington in 401 Brant Street. They are open Monday from 9:00 – 17:00, Tuesday to Saturday from 9:00 – 21:00, and Sunday from 10:00 – 21:00. They cater, make cakes for special events, and right now that Canadian Thanksgiving is just around the corner, orders are piling up in their Brant location for family and friends gatherings! Even more amazing is that they deliver all over the GTA area even stretches as far as Guelph, Kitchener, and Cambridge.

With Great Space

I love hanging out at their seating space! I go here to write my blog articles, do work, catch up with friends and family, and read. Sometimes I just sit and be hypnotized by the cupcakes and sweetness around me! The seating area is nicely illuminated so you can enjoy the sun even sitting inside. Perfect to sit down and savour that baked good!

The Cupcakes

Kelly’s Bake Shoppe is known for their cupcakes offering both the regular flavours plus seasonal ones that caters to every person with or without dietary restrictions. Their cupcakes are made from ethically sourced ingredients, gluten free, vegan, plant-based, and fair-trade so you won’t feel ‘guilty’ eating them! Made fresh in small batches and they deliver high quality consistent cupcakes all the time.

Their cupcake menu is so extensive. Everyone will definitely be able to get a cupcake treat to enjoy! Fruity or not, chocolate, vanilla, coffee-based, they have every flavour for every sweet person out there. Their cupcake designs are very creative. Made with love and passion!

The Black and White, Vanilla Bean, and Chocolate are the favourites.

It’s fall right now in Canada so everything here is pumpkin, caramel, spiced, and apple flavoured. Right now, they have a fall flavour Pumpkin Caramel cupcake. I had my first bite of this fall cupcake and it definitely taste like fall in my mouth! The pumpkin cake batter is moist and fluffy, the caramel inside is gooey and the perfect sweetness with cream cheese frosting on top and caramel drizzle.

And More Treats

Not only do they specialize in cupcakes but they have other baked goods! They have cakes, donuts, cookies, brownies, muffins, and scones. They brew Pilot Coffee Roasters, a local Toronto coffeehouse. It’s amazing to see locals supporting locals.

Definitely try their gluten-free mile high brownie super rich in chocolate and super healthy. Pair it with an Americano. Perfect!

My family and I are avid fans of this bakery that we order cakes here for birthdays and special occasions.
