Beloved Markham Bakery I Am A Cake Lands in Toronto in December 2025
Toronto dessert lovers have something new to look forward to this winter. I Am A Cake, the popular Markham bakery known for light Korean-style treats, is opening its first downtown Toronto location in December 2025. The expansion brings the brand’s well-loved cakes and choux pastries closer to people who don’t want to make the drive up north.
A Markham Favourite Finally Expands
I Am A Cake grew quickly in Markham because people connected with its style of desserts—soft sponge cakes, whipped cream fillings, and flavours that feel balanced instead of heavy. The bakery often draws weekend crowds, and many of its items sell out before the afternoon.
Now, the team is taking the next step by moving into downtown Toronto. After years of requests from customers, they finally decided to bring their menu into the city’s core. The December launch marks a major moment for the brand.
What to Expect at the Toronto Store
The bakery hasn’t released a full Toronto menu yet, but regular customers already know what to expect. Many of the Markham favourites will likely appear downtown, including:
- Blueberry cream cheese choux, one of their most shared items
- Light layered cakes topped with fruit and cream
- Soft cheesecakes with a gentle flavour
- Matcha and Earl Grey desserts
- Seasonal items for the December opening
These desserts usually stand out because they’re light, not overly sweet, and look clean on camera. As a result, many Toronto creators are already excited for the launch.
Why This Opening Matters in 2025
Toronto continues to embrace Asian-inspired bakeries. Over the past few years, shops like Hazukido, Fuwa Fuwa, Daan Go, and Bake Code created strong demand for pastries with lighter textures. I Am A Cake fits naturally into this landscape, and the timing works well as more residents look for alternatives to heavier desserts.
This expansion also makes life easier for fans who don’t want to travel to Markham. Students, office workers, and weekend visitors will now have easier access to the bakery’s most popular items.
What’s Confirmed So Far
Here’s everything confirmed for the new store:
- Opening: December 2025
- Area: 67 Shuter St.
- Progress: Renovations are underway
- Launch details: The bakery expects to share soft-opening updates soon
As the date gets closer, the brand will release more information through its social channels.s.
A Sweet Finish to the Year
With its Toronto launch happening during one of the busiest times of the year, I Am A Cake is set to draw plenty of attention. If the Markham store’s weekend crowds are any indication, the downtown location is likely to see the same excitement once doors open in December 2025.
