| - These are the best professional gluten free tasty treats i've had outside of Babycakes NYC/LA. Bunners are pretty new in Toronto, and i've only popped in a couple of times, but they have certainly made an impression.
Bunners primarily cater to the sweet tooth crowd - cupcakes, cookies, muffins, cakes and the like. They're all a nice consistency, good flavour and not sickly sweet. I love their cinnamon donuts so, so much. Also on offer are an assortment of breads - I tried the cinnamon raisin loaf, which surprised me with how moist and bready it was. Perfect to snack on or toast up, definitely.
A recent addition are the savoury pastries - i'm sad on one visit to have missed the pizza pocket, but got to try a delicious curried chickpea one which didn't disappoint - flavourful filling and delicate flaky pastry. Plus the lovely lady behind the counter heated it up for me so I could enjoy a warm snack right away! Brilliant.
Prices are fairly reasonable considering the product & the level of production (it's a small store, after all) - a savoury pastry, cupcake & donut came to roughly $10 including tax. Depending on what day & time you go, you may miss out on something you're looking forward to, so keep an eye on their Facebook/Twitter to see what's on offer for the day, or even give them a call to make sure.
Bunners are starting to reach out a bit (taking some of their goods to Te Aro and hopefully looking at other places), which is a great thing because it's not often I can make it to the Junction. However, even the distance I have to go and the lack of seating (a couple of cushions on a window seat) can't even make me knock off a star. Bravo Bunners!
