We are forgetting the delicious ice cream sandwiches from Bakerbots, with a bevy of homemade cookies and ice cream from Ed’s. My favourite in the city..yum yum!
FYI – Splendido took theirs off their menu!
I agree with Steven. This list needs to be updated. Bakerbots is number one for Ice Cream Sandwiches in TO!
