BeaverTails, the iconic Ottawa snack, is coming to Toronto.
The puff pastry, typically covered in cinnamon and lemon, is a familiar treat to anyone who grew up skating along the Rideau Canal.
A BeaverTails pastry and a cup of hot chocolate was the reward for finishing the 7.8 kilometre-long skate.
Now, I may not be able to skate backwards (I can go forwards really, really fast, because it’s cold in Ottawa and the point of skating the Rideau is to finish and then go home), but I know a treat when I see it.
According to the company’s Twitter page, a brick-and-mortar store will soon be opening on Queen’s Quay at the bottom of York Street.
Currently, there’s a pop-up (adorably referred to by BeaverTails as a cabin) in front of what used to be a Second Cup. The BeaverTails will open up at the former Second Cup in the fall.
So … any day now. And I can just walk there.
