To create phenomenal vegan experiences.

Our Story

This is the story of three sisters (and a brother and brother-in-law) who love animals and want to live in a world full of compassion.

The story starts in the mid-1980s when we watched a new TV series called A Planet for the Taking, by David Suzuki. After watching this eye-opening video, we all became vegan. As we missed some of our favourite Danish cakes and pastries that we used to enjoy with our mother and grandmother, we decided to recreate vegan versions of everything.

With determination, dedication, and lots of experimentation, we created awesome vegan recipes and opened the Vegan Danish Bakery in Thornhill on Valentine’s Day in 2010. It started in a small corner of a shop, then expanded to a full shop, then expanded again across two shops. The support from the customers throughout the Greater Toronto Area was (and still is!) fantastic. So much so, that in 2018, we opened our second location in downtown Toronto on Queen Street. Many thanks to all of our customers who have left so many 5-Star reviews on our Facebook page and google page!!

After having travelled to many destinations around the world we came up with a delicious idea. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if there was a fully vegan destination where everything from the continental breakfast, brunch, lunch menu and international buffets are all vegan and available to enjoy in a beautiful place where every detail has been accommodated to a vegan life style without compromise. Everything from soaps and shampoos, the spa, classes, excursions, and more are all 100% vegan.

So the concept for the Sugar Pine Vegan Resort was born!

EAT & DRINK

To us, it’s all about the food! Imagine a peaceful and enjoyable forested resort on a private lake in Ontario. Now, imagine that same resort, but 100% vegan. Didn’t that just get even better?

And when you can experience a resort where everything is vegan, you can get the feeling of what it would be like if the whole world was vegan.

Enjoy eating at our charming restaurant.
