Yamato Bakery - Calgary

Cute little bakery! The staff were friendly and polite. There’s limited parking (2-3 parking stalls) around the backside of the shop. I picked up a slice of double chocolate mousse, it was delicious — not too sweet and fairly fresh. Though I found that if your purchase is $10 and under, it has to be cash only.

I'm in love with their mango mousse cake. It's amazing. I believe we paid $30 for the cake and it fed about 6-8 people. Really amazing and affordable

Lovely French-influenced desserts with a Japanese twist. After much deliberation, I finally decided to try the Napoleon, Honey Cake, and Red Bean Paste Buns. The Napoleon was pretty good (airy whipped cream sandwiched between layers of tender sponge cake with a hint of vanilla , but I do prefer it when puff pastry is used rather than sponge cake. The Honey Cake was light and airy, very eggy with a touch of honey. To my surprise, the Red Bean Paste Buns had a coconut filling (perhaps they were just mislabeled? but by far, they were my favourite dessert. The bun itself was very soft, and the filling was absolutely delectable: just the right amount of sweetness with lots of coconut-y goodness. Definitely think about giving Yamato a visit.

Yamato bakery has changed hands since about 10 months ago, but definitely for the better. Their Hokkaido chiffon cake is so soft and delicious. The roll cakes are very good too, I particularly like the green tea red bean and fresh mango. They don't use canned fruit everything is natural. Cake is not overly sweet, light, and delicious.

Decided to try this bakery today because I always see it when I drive by, the green tea cheesecake is soo delicious! So smooth! Good quality cheesecake here I would definitely be coming back! They also offered thin sesame crisps for sampling which was very tasty as well!
