About this home

Exceptional opportunity to own a well-established, award-winning cupcake bakery in the heart of charming Westdale Village! Successfully operating for over 22 years, Cupcakes of Westdale Village has built an outstanding reputation and a loyal customer base of repeat, walk-in and community customers. Recipient of the City of Hamilton's 2025 Award of Excellence, this turnkey business offers an exceptional opportunity for an owner-operator or entrepreneur looking to step into an established operation. Ideally located in a high-visibility plaza just steps from McMaster University, this approximately 883 sq. ft. storefront benefits from excellent pedestrian traffic, free customer parking, strong community support, and two dedicated staff parking spaces at the rear. The business is currently operated Tuesday through Sunday from 12:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m., offering significant opportunity for growth by extending operating hours, expanding the product line, increasing catering services, or further developing delivery operations. The sale includes an extensive inventory of commercial bakery equipment, fixtures and chattels, allowing a purchaser to begin operations immediately with minimal additional investment. Established systems, recognizable branding, and a loyal clientele make this a true turnkey business opportunity. The current lease has approximately four years remaining (expiring in 2030) with reasonable rent and an excellent landlord. The owner is willing to provide comprehensive training to ensure a smooth and successful transition. Buyers interested in acquiring the location only may also be considered, as the seller is willing to negotiate. Both Listing Agents are related to the Seller.
