They're living my dream...

which is basically to have a vegan bakery-café. Failing that, if I still lived on the Plateau, I'd be hanging out at this place on my days off nibbling treats and having coffee.

I had ordered a chocolate-orange yule log for Xmas eve dinner via email and they were very flexible with the arrangements since I live off-island. It was absolutely amazing to have this for dessert with a bunch of non-veg*ns. The cake was very moist and the almonds were such a nice touch. (see pic). At the same time, I picked out a pecan tart (nice but just ok) and a freshly made almond cream brioche (really good!).

* * *
Today, I went for brunch (see pic for description). It was $12, including coffee/tea or juice. I took an earl grey tea which was served out of a thermos. Unfortunately, it was lukewarm -- a no-no for tea enthusiasts. The plate had a lot of goodies: the sweet potato pancake was very good, as was the tortière. I didn't care for the ketchup, though. The real jewel of this brunch plate was the salad: kale tossed in lemon juice, topped with dried cranberries, crushed pecans and pomegranate kernels. This is something I'll have to try and re-create.

Overall, it was a tasty, high quality meal, but not very much food for the price. An improvement would be to either add a second pancake and have a larger salad, or add something bready to the plate. Also, to make sure the tea is hot.

Upon paying the bill, I bought two doughnuts: sugar & cinnamon, and coconut. Both are yeast-based doughnuts, not cake ones -- it's very hard to find yeasted vegan doughnuts, so I was very excited. The coconut was amazing, the other was just standard. Apparently these were made by a place called Léché Desserts, an artisanal doughnut boutique, and Sophie Sucrée carries them from Thursday to Sunday.

Friendly, cute and delicious

All the baked goods look as good as they taste. The whole place is extremely cute, and the woman at the desk was very personable and helpful. Our only complaint was that the coffee wasn't spectacular.

Pros: Food and store look great, Friendly staff, Delicious

Cons: Coffee is just okay

Great bakery

At Sophie Sucrée, you will find high quality baked goods that are tasty and keep you wantint to go back for more.

I particularly recommend the cinammon buns and the cupcakes with raspberry frosting, although pretty much everything is delicious.

There are two large tables if you want to sit and eat there.

Pros: Nice and cute atmosphere, Extremely friendly staff, Use coconut oil instead of shortening

Cons: A little bit pricey (but it's quality), Not that many "junk" baked goods

Finally!!

I can't believe this opened just after I moved away from Montreal. This bakery is A-W-E-S-O-M-E. Everything we tried there was fantastic! Vegan cinnamon buns? To die for. Vegan shortbreads? Oh-so-yummy. High-quality and tasty products, decent price. They carry fancy items, so don't expect (for the moment) to get a slice of decadent chocolate-cake, but it's still definitely worth trying! The choice isn't too wide either, but everything is good so don't worry. They also do catering jobs, so I guess you could get yourself something decadent if you order a cake. Prices are reasonable for what you get, pretty similar to any bakery.

Pros: Delicious, Super friendly staff, Cute place

sugar high!

Try the cinnamon buns (brioches)!!! They are absolutely decadent and delicious.

There's a nice variety of baked goods and treats - scones, shortbread, tarts, cakes, brownies, ice cream. Gluten free options too. These are real-deal desserts, none of that "replaced the sugar with pureed dates and this ice-cream is made of frozen bananas" stuff.
A very welcome addition to the vegan dessert scene in Montreal, they've raised the bar I think. The place is very pretty and everything is nicely presented. There are a few little tables, and they have beverages as well, so it could be a lovely place to sit down and leisurely enjoy your dainty treats.
I find the prices a tad high, but it's fancy, so to be expected I suppose.

Anyway, it's pretty great and I will be going back frequently I'm sure.

Pros: super delicious, great attention to visual presentation

Cons: a bit pricey

Finally!

I have been waiting years for a vegan bakery in Montreal. I've been there a couple of times and have mixed feelings. The store itself is very cute, and the desserts seem to be made with care and love, but the variety is lacking, and the prices seem a bit high. I suppose it's an artisan bakery, but I was hoping for more junky desserts like donuts and cream pies.

What I've tried has been very good though: their cookies and cupcakes are tasty, excellent cinnamon buns, yummy sandwiches, excellent ice cream....I guess I'm still waiting for that vegan trash bakery to open up. Anyone?

Pros: Great staff, Cute decor, Tasty desserts

Cons: Pricey, Lacking variety, too healthy

Sweet Vegan

I just discovered Sophie Sucree. Adorable little shop that has just opened in Montreal.
I was quite impressed by their vegan cinnamon buns and lavender shortbread.
They also serve nice homemade vegan ice cream.
They also have few gluten free options.
They don't have a lot of choices but what they have looks so beautiful since the owner is a real artist.
I hope they will have more options in the future.

Pros: Friendly staff, Very clean, High quality ingredients
