With summer just around the corner, a new small-batch ice cream maker has descended upon Toronto. With off-beat flavors and a selection of delicious bakery treats, the company may soon become the city's number one choice for finding something sweet.
Ruru Baked is a Toronto-based business started by pastry chef Luanne Ronquillo. The shop specializes in made-to-order, small-batch ice cream in unusual flavors such as Black Sesame and Sweet Corn & Lime. Additionally, Ronquillo also offers a number of baked goods that include Apple Cheddar Pie, Marshmallow Squares and her take on Twix bars.
Beyond the creative flavors, what truly sets the company apart is the option for delivery within Central Toronto. In other words, consumers can easily satisfy their craving for artisan ice cream without having to brave long lines of hungry foodies.
