Rhum Corner has already sold out of their Kremas.
Very impressed by Dough Bakeshop’s holiday offerings, as well as their regular year-round selection of squares and tarts.

FYI there’s a boxing day sale Volo is having for their online only orders (frozen pies have to be pickup in-store after your online order). Also they have PDC’s chicken pot pie which I haven’t tried before. Use code BOTTEGA20 for 20% off and we have HST holiday. Valid till end of this year.

Thanks!!
We bought 3 pies from Sharman’s. And unfortunately these were the worst pies we’ve ever tasted. Tasted like a culinary student’s attempt at making a pie and failing the class. The cooking instructions resulted in an under-cooked pie (yes, my oven is calibrated). Everything was dry. The pastry was terrible and the top comes off like a frisbee. On our final pie, their tourtiere, I baked it more using visual and temperature cues and it was… ugh. Rating for all pies: 0/100. i.e. not worth a penny. If there was anything positive about the pies we tried, I thought the strong cinnamon in their blueberry pie was a combination I’d like to try myself. But the whole package still failed miserably,

Brutal. I am very sorry to hear this.
All part of the game of trying new stuff. Sometimes you win, sometimes not.

True! On the topic of pies, we liked Kenny’s pies, which are savoury hand pies sold at Hamers Coffee Thu to Sun I think. They’re small. More like puff pastry pies, but nice fillings. I can’t remember if I posted about them in the British and Irish food in [Toronto] and the Greater Toronto Area, 2024 thread
