Our story
A bakery the whole party can eat at
Ginger’s Cupcakes & Desserts is a from-scratch, 100% nut-free bakery in downtown Aurora — built so the kid with the allergy gets the same cake as everyone else.
From scratch, and nut-free
Ginger’s started as a small bakery at Yonge & Wellington with one clear idea: make beautiful cakes and treats the way they should be made — from scratch — in a kitchen that’s completely free of peanuts and tree nuts. [CONFIRM the founding story — who Ginger is, the founding year, the family behind it]
For a lot of Aurora families, that’s not a nice-to-have. It’s the difference between their child being part of the party and watching from the side. A nut-free bakery means a birthday cake nobody has to think twice about.
The open kitchen
There’s no “back” here. Stand at the counter and you can watch the bakers ice a cake or pipe a tray of cupcakes — the kitchen is open, on purpose. It’s how you keep standards honest, and it’s a good show with a coffee.
There’s a second Ginger’s in Richmond Hill, too — but this is the Aurora shop, on the corner of Yonge and Wellington. [CONFIRM how to present the two locations]
