léché desserts inc.

so last time when mr.butter suprised with lechedessertsdonuts, the pistachio donut was missing. mr.butter surprised me again by bringing me to the physical location. i was clueless and caught off guard because the neighborhood for such a donut shop was unusual and even bewildered me. i was animated by the unmistakable lechedessertssignage. the space was mostly occupied by the kitchen, where the magical birth of donuts happens. at the sight of the pistachio donuts being displayed and more importantly, available, i was overjoyed. oh, cheesecake donuts? some of these as well please! a quick order and we were out. we couldn’t wait to get out and taste them!

i always thought you can never go wrong with a donut but after trying léchédessertsi realized i've been eating bad donuts all my life. you seriously can taste the love and skills they put into making these donuts. i tried the chocolate brownie donut and also the tiramisu donut (i'm not sure if the tiramisu is a part of their regular menu but i like to think i was special enough for it to be made that day :]). definitely will go back next time i'm in montreal!

march 12, 2015 / by zuuchini / in food , montreal , restaurant review / post comment as a kid, my first doughnut was from dunkin donuts. then, they disappeared from the montreal scene. afterwards, i had my doughnuts either at tim hortons or krispy kreme. but neither of them gave the same sensation as leche desserts. once you have lechedessertsdonughts, you just can’t go back to ordinary ones. lechedessertsmake many unique flavors. i was sad that pistachio wasn’t available. there shall be another time! regardless of the flavors, what’s remarkable about their donuts is the texture of the fried dough. think of a edible fluffy pillow, not too fluffy where it cannot support the weight of the head. firm but comforting, it allows the head to sink in a bit. some flavors were better than others, my favorite one from this batch was coconut and lime (or the passion fruit one). the sweetness is just right. i would eat a whole without finding it sweet and can easily have a second one. even my mom who is incredibly sensitive to sugar and very discipline with calorie intake enjoyed these doughnuts and couldn’t stop herself to have a second serving! i’m so glad lechedessertsisn’t that accessible to me, or i’ll be stuffing my face with doughnuts during this tax season. zuuchini share this: facebook twitter email

lovely...but.... i have been to lechedessertsmany times and made orders for events a couple of times as well.. their selection is amazing (my favourites are pistachio and peanut butter jelly donuts)

unfortunately, i went today and the worker was so rude and unenthusiastic about her job it really makes me uncomfortable about going back. the owner is so sweet and usually her employees are great. i don't know her name, but she was slim, brown hair with ear plugs.

i went in with my husband and she looked mad that there were customers. when i asked her if they had any of my favourite ones she replied an annoyed "no." and pointed at the display like i am retarded for even asking.

as a small business owner, i feel bad for the owner because this place is overall perfect and their sweets are never disappointing, but it really goes to show you how employees are impactful on your business.

really yum. i'm addicted...very cool concept!

wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. amazing....doesn't sum up the magic that léché creates and puts in their doughnuts! what a treat, her approach to classic favouritedessertsand pies that you'd find on your families table, but in the form of doughnuts! apple pie and lemon meringue (my favourite)! i watched the léché team making their bread in front of me, another making some chocolate creations, another cutting fresh herbs from their indoor garden, all whilst i waited for my homemade hot chocolate to wash down my fresh doughnut! awesome cool!
can't wait to go back and see the léché girls! great job!!!
