If you're eager for a reason to celebrate, any reason, you'll want to live it up come St. Patrick's Day. No, your festivities won't look like the decadent bacchanals of years past but, what they can boast is an array of treats festive enough, and green enough, to please St. Paddy himself.
From cupcakes and doughnuts to Montreal-style bagels tinted a verdant shade of emerald, these treats cover a range of cravings. Some are over-the-top, others are subtle and refined, but they're all the types of small pleasures you'll want to reach for come March 17.
The best St. Patrick's Day treats in Toronto will help you celebrate, whether or not you're Irish, are partial to the colour green or know anything at all about the day's patron saint. Make a mid-March Wednesday feel special with a few, or all, of these delights at hand and you'll feel as if you've been blessed with the luck of the Irish.
