  • Finally made it to the VDB for the first time, even though I've been meaning to go since it opened 2 years ago. It's just that I never have a reason to go to Thornhill. And I guess I can't justify driving that far strictly to indulge in vegan treats. But the right opportunity finally came along this year. I was surprised to find VDB inside a costume shop. It has its own entrance, but basically is an off-shoot of the shop. I think it's amazing that a vegan, Danish-themed bakery even exists. I can't think of any other ethnically-themed vegan bakeries I've come across in all my veg-aholic travels, so this one wins a unique award. I just wish it was in a most accessible location. We picked up three danishes; one apple, two blueberry, some cookies; maple and peanut, a strawberry yogurt snack made from cultured pea protein and some Danish-style almond cookies called kransekake, that came recommended by Michelle G. The pea yogurt, was very interesting and I would recommend giving it a try if you're into dairy-free yogurts. It's not like any other I've had and was more dessert-y. The maple and peanut cookies were not the soft kind I enjoy but rather like the hard, dry variety you find on grocery store shelves, so I wasn't a huge fan. My partner gobbled them up joyfully, though. The kransekake was softer and chewy, as you would expect an almond-based cookie to be. Definitely, worth trying as part of an authentic Danish vegan experience. As for the pastry danishes, I've never been a huge fan of these (I'm more the croissant or pain au chocolat-type) but I did enjoy the one I had, toasted with coffee the next morning. I honestly could not tell the difference between it and the non-vegan versions. I think the element missing from my visit was chocolate. Chocolate improves everything. I went in the evening on a weeknight and they didn't have a big selection of goods that day I was told, so I'll definitely have to return. After seeing Jennifer K's photo of a black forest cake slice and knowing that they do custom cakes, honestly, I'm very, very tempted to order one for myself. I've actually been trying to think of occasions for it as an excuse. They also have vegan soft serve, that I didn't get to try. That will have to wait for the next trip north.
