Kream is a highly popular Korean-style dessert café in Toronto famous for its viral, flaky cube croissants (known as "Kream Bombs") and trendy specialty drinks. The bakery proudly sources 100% real dairy cream from local Ontario farms to make a rich filling that is uniquely light and not overly sweet.
