There's a Dollar store in Transcona - off Lag next to Sobey's that sell Torani's syrup. I've only tried the english toffee and it was good.

Default Davinci in Ontario

Hi,

It's too bad you don't live in Ontario. After many months of searching for a store that sells Davinci syrup there is one in Hamilton here. I suppose you don't know anyone that is flying out to visit you anytime soon from here eh?

I found this info on another thread that mentioned Davinci syrup in Alberta. Here is the address for the store they found sold it:

The Diabetic Deopt
#4, 4604 - 37 St. SW
Calgary,Alberta
T3E 3C9 Canada
Tel: (403) 685-4010 Fax: (403) 685-5995

Hope this helps you.

Thanks Bigted and Carbwish!!

2 options to keep in mind! I had tried sugarfree Torino carmel at Sunspot Coffee shop on Portage and it was fair. Maybe other flavors will be better.

Anyone know a website to order the Davinci syrup's from? Either a Canadian one or one that ships to Canada (The Davinici site does not ship outside the US). Having trouble finding one, any help would be GREAT!!!

Thanks in advance!

Smile low carb stores in Ontario

Hi,

I know of 3 low carb stores you can try. The one in Hamilton I know for sure sells low carb syrup by DaVinci.

Totally Low Carb Health And Diet Centre Inc
1508 Upper James Street,
Hamilton, ON
L9B 1K3
905-318-0100
email: totallylowcarbtlc~hotmail.com the ~ should be an "at" sign

Low Carb Centre
1992 Yonge Street,
Toronto, ON
M4S 1Z7
416-485-2500

The Low Carb Grocery
3147 Yonge Street,
Toronto, ON
M4N 2K9
416-484-7479

Good luck with your search for the syrup. It took me many weeks to find a supplier in Ontario too.

Liz

You guys in the GTA are lucky you have those great stores down there! Up here in Ottawa, we don't seem to have any low carb stores. I need to get these syrups online :/

So did you find some? Did you search or browse through the many pages here in the Canada forum?... or Google for DaVinci and Canada?

I know of at least two Canadian online stores that are Ontario-based that carry some DaVinci. The LowCarb FoodDepot at http://www.lowcarbfooddepot.com and Low-Carbing.Com at http://low-carbing.com

I'm on the West Coast so shipping would be more across the Canada Post 'thunder bay' border...not as practical as the above two.

Smile Low Carb Store in Hamilton may ship you syrup

Dear Webjunkie,

I called the low carb store in Hamilton for you and they said it's possible they could mail you some syrup.

Just email them a request.

Laurie,
The coffee bar (I can't remember the name) in Johnsons Terminal at the Forks carries some of Davincis sf syrups but will also order in various flavors. They are great and reasonablly priced.
Deluca's on Portage also carry some but not as many varietys as the coffee place.

Good luck!

Thanks Branqu!!!

I am so excited.. I am going to check them both out this week. The shops at the forks I find are very progressive by Manitoba standards... Lots of great shops for low carb treats!!
