semla / semlor in Toronto?

Does anyone know of a bakery or place in Toronto that sells semla at this time of year or kind enough to bake a batch for me?

    Try The beaches bakeshop on Kingston road in Toronto. Semlor are baked from Feb
    to Easter however they may bake out of season. Take a chance. 416.686.2391

      I was going to recommend this place also. The owner/baker is Swedish and definitely has semlor around Easter.

        I just called the Kingston Road bakeshop about semla and the person who answered the phone didn't know what it was. She suggested I try Hansen's Danish Pastry Shop on Pape (which is closed for holidays until Tuesday, Feb. 2).

        CORRECTION:
        Oops, sorry, I called the wrong place -- The Beaches Bakeshop does indeed sell semla! It was the Danish Style Cakeshop (also on Kingston Road) that didn't know what they were. My bad.
