Gusta Bake Lab
Tucked inside Gusta Cooking Studio, the Bake Lab is our little corner of creativity — a place for exploring sweets, collaborations, and fresh ideas. It’s where seasonal pastries, limited-edition desserts, and co-creations with talented local chefs and makers come to life.
From elegant patisserie to a thoughtfully brewed latte, the Bake Lab is where tradition meets experimentation, and where each creation is made to be shared and savoured.
Location: 28 Crown Steel Drive, Unit 16, Markham, ON L3R 9Y1
Showroom & Online Shop
Prep work becomes effortless when you slice with a balanced knife or whip with a sturdy whisk. Secret recipes sometimes use simply the best quality ingredients you can find.
We import discerning chefs' favourite tools and ingredients, many of them reserved for professional use, and make them accessible to the public and gastronomes at home, and for you.

Testimonials
“The facilities are spacious and well laid out, with lots of room to work/cook and interact with your fellow students. Baron was a great instructor; friendly, knowledgeable, helpful and full of positive energy.”
— MARK
“My amazing wife bought my sister and I a course here at Gusta Cooking Studio, in which we learned how to make vanilla bean mille crepes with fruit layers. Baron was our instructor, and he was absolutely great. The two of us have very little baking/pastry experience, but he was able to guide us through the entire process of making the crepe and cream layers in a fun and informative manner. I really loved how he was able to explain the "why" for many of the steps, which made it much easier to understand the whole process. ”
— ANDREW
“Beautiful space. Professional instructor with heart. Highly recommended!”
