I love going to Asian bakeries since they're usually far less pricey than their European counterpart.
By far, Mashion Bakery is one of the best Chinese style bakery in downtown Toronto. Once you step into the store you will find buns of all kind, baked or steamed, and various cakes stacked with cream and fruits and decorated with frosting. They're individually wrapped and it's a self-serve model where you take a tray and a pair of tongs and select whatever you like.
One takeaway is to visit this bakery in the morning for best results. I find that the baked goods especially the buns and egg custard tarts are at their peak while still warm plus there's not a lot of choices left when you come in the afternoon or nearer to closing time.
My top 3 go-to favourites here are the Cheese Beef Hotdog Bun, Pineapple Red Bean Bun, and Baked BBQ Pork Bun.
Although a lot pricier compared to regular buns, the cheese beef hotdog bun is soft and tender and the quality of the beef hotdog is not bad at all. The pineapple red bean bun although a bit sweeter for my liking (due to the red bean filling) has a good ratio of filling to bread. I liked to get the baked version of the bbq pork bun rather than the steamed one because the bread is better.
Prices are reasonable and definitely one of the best cheap eats in Toronto.

Compared to the 3 other Chinese bakeries in Chinatown I’ve tried, this one is BY FAR the best.
Really tasty breads, cheap prices; I’ve gotten two full bags worth of goods here and it’s still under $20.
LOVE the pork bbq so I highly recommend either the pork bbq baked buns or steamed buns. The hotdog buns are good too. My boyfriend also loves the sticky rice.
If you come in early, the products will still be warm and freshly baked. Worth the visit!

Hidden gem alert-The pastries here are out of this world, especially the Taro Paste—so soft and tender… and just $1.5! It is cash only though.
