- True to its name, Maisonette (12 Tank House Lane, Toronto, ON; maisonettedistillery.ca; @maisonettegifts) is literally a small space within one of the historic buildings at the Distillery District.
What got my attention was a sign hanging from their only window shouting out an alluring message - handmade ice pops! They have a wide assortment of flavours such as grapefruit, watermelon, cucumber, white nectarine, and mojito. They also have cream based frozen bars.
The white nectarine ice pop contained yogurt and it tasted like something you would get at Yogen Fruz. The minty mojito ice pop had a nice tartness to it and had a great lime flavour.
Looking around, Maisonette also sells locally owned and locally made products such as jams, honeys, maple syrups and short breads. In addition, they have a whole display dedicated to luxurious loose leaf teas and items from Laura Slack, a Toronto based artisan chocolatier. Maisonette has the chocolate artists's signature Dulce de Leche skull too!
