I always get loaves of bread, cheese buns/ subs, banana chocolate loaves, and small treats; they always taste fabulous!!! Hope they get more traffic so we can keep buying their baked goods.

I placed an order for a cake on Sunday night for a cake and received no confirmation from the bakery. I gave them a call today and they said they weren't going to make me a cake at all. Now I am left without a cake for my father's birthday and with no notice at all from the bakery. Very unprofessional :'(

We have been ordering celebration cakes from Wild Earth for the past 10 years, originally at their 99th street location, then at the Enjoy Centre. They were our favorite cakes, and we would recommend them to all our friends and family. Over the last couple of years, we noticed the quality was not the same. We were informed that their baker had changed. We remained loyal and continued to order cakes here.
Unfortunately, the last cake we ordered will probably be our last due to the service and the quality of the cake. I ordered the Caramel Crunch cake. The main attraction of this cake is the delicious

The baked goods here are beautiful to look at but unfortunately were hugely disappointing to eat.
Bought several different items and they were all stale and dated hours after purchase. Everything went into the garbage and was a big waste of money. Young lady working was quiet but pleasant.
