A small Ajax dessert shop that recently received a glowing review from celebrity food critic Keith Lee is being forced to move after a zoning complaint was made following the social media influencer’s visit last month.

On April 5, Lee paid a visit to Biscuits to Baskets, a small dessert shop located in the backyard shed of a home in a quiet, residential neighbourhood in Ajax.

“Due to a recent visit by the town, it has come to our attention that our backyard is not a suitable space for business as it’s separate from the main house,”The post went on to explain that in order to continue to operate, they will now have to run the shop out of the main house on the property starting on June 1.

In a statement sent to CP24.com on Thursday, the Town of Ajax confirmed that a letter had been sent to Biscuits to Baskets from the town’s bylaw services division. “Biscuits to Baskets have since been provided with several options to ensure they can continue to operate successfully in their primary dwelling, or look at other options for expanding to a commercial storefront,” the statement read. “The Town has been in contact with Biscuits to Baskets and expressed a willingness to work with them moving forward.”“The fact that me and my family had any part in this… didn’t sit well with me,” Lee said in the video posted on TikTok.

“This business, not only from a food perspective, but from a customer service , from what they stand for to the spirit of the people who work there, amazing in my opinion.” Keith Lee reviews Biscuits to Baskets in a video the celebrity food critic posted on TikTok in April 2024.
