Les Delices Delicious Cakes in Montreal West
If you’re having company for Labor Day, bakery Les Delices La Frenaie has locations – east, west, south and Laval, so they’re easy to get to wherever you live. Montreal West is one you may not know about. They have been a fixture in St-Leonard for years and you can find just about any kind of cake you could want.
Come here for: Bacio, Key Lime Cheesecake (15 others), Frutti di bosco, Dulce de Leche, Orange or Walnut pound cake (16 others), Limoncello, Heavenly Berry and Milky Way in 8″ or 10″ sizes (this can serve about 20). Some can be ordered 36 hours in advance for more than 20 people.
Sandra’s newest favorite is the understatedly named, Fruitcake. Imagine a Strawberry Shortcake made with an assortment of fresh fruit. It is light, whipped creamy, and not overly sweet.
The best deal is the apple, lemon, chocolate chip, or cinnamon marble cakes. I really like the amaretti biscotti. Trays of pizza (tomato, white, all dressed and vegetarian) can be ordered.
