Cocoa Locale is a cute little bakery and a true hidden gem that has been in business since 2005. Reviewers call it a must-try, with many raving it is the best thing they ate in Montreal. The cakes and cupcakes are described as absolutely delicious, beautiful, and sublime. Specific highlights include a moist and flavourful cupcake, an unforgettable chocolate chai cake, and vanilla rose and coconut lemon cakes. The treats taste like something made with love, are clearly made with high quality ingredients, and are light and not overly sweet. Everything tastes homemade in the best possible way.
The shop itself feels like something out of a movie, described as so cute. The owner is incredibly sweet and friendly, offering a candle with cakes. The cakes come in perfect sizes, reasonably priced with extremely fair prices, and in portions convenient for either 4–6 or 10 people. The service is friendly. Customers highly recommend this spot, with many saying they still think about the cakes months later.
Excellent! I buy cakes from here at least twice per year. Great place.

Enjoyed the best cupcake I have ever had in my life at this cute little bakery. My only regret is that I didn't but more! The cupcake was moist and flavourful and the owner was so sweet. This little bakery is a must try!
