I can't shop thinking about this place! It's a Vancouver gem. I normally don't like chocolates filled with surprises but someone gifted me a box of bespoke chocolates and every single one was amazing. I loved it so much that I came here my last day in Vancouver and bought a few boxes to gift to my family. I got there before it opened and was surprised there were a few people waiting outside. These chocolates are art! They are beautiful from the outside and delicious. read more

I used to come to BETA5 for their cream puffs. Sadly, those are discontinued now. They are pushing their focus to artisanal chocolates. I loved their pastry and absolute creativity with the cream puffs. They were both gorgeous works of art, and a delicious treat that was not too sweet! Their chocolate is good quality but quite expensive compared to other artisanal chocolatiers. I'd only get chocolates here if I found a unique flavour (which isn't uncommon here at beta5) but it's not my go to stop. read more

November 23 marked the last day Beta5 served their iconic cream puffs. I've been enjoying their cream puffs since they first started offering them. I still remember discovering their cookie choux and how its texture stood out from other choux pastries. Initially, they offered basic flavors, but over time, they introduced unique flavors and ingredients that I truly loved. The Cream Puff Anthology started in mid-September and runs until November 23, so I made every effort to visit whenever I could to get my favorite cream puff flavors. I tried the Sesame Miso Ramen, Kinako Mochi, Burger, Cherry Cola, Orange, Salted Egg Yolk, Egg Tart, Ube, Mango Coconut, and Raspberry Earl Grey. All of them tasted amazing! My favorites were: Sesame Miso Ramen: The salty and sweet filling was top-notch. Burger: The lettuce, made of chocolate, was impressive, and the patty part was absolutely delicious. Mango Coconut: The tapioca filling was unforgettable--so good! Kinako Mochi: The mochi slice on top paired unexpectedly well with the cookie choux and filling. My journey with Beta5's cream puffs has come to an end. I really hope they bring back the cream puffs as a pop-up or limited special someday... I wish my dream comes true! read more

I've had this place bookmarked for years and finally got to try it. I was worried when I learned that they would stop making choux/cream puffs but I was excited they announced a final run during the time I'd be in Vancouver. I had to DM them on social media for assistance with online ordering from the US but they were helpful and I got my order of the mango milk tea, salted caramel, and raspberry earl grey, weeks in advance. I arrived at about 1pm and the puffs were already sold out for the day, but my pre order was ready and beautifully packaged. I also ordered two polygon candy bars, Cookie Monster to give to a friend and queen of hearts to take home. I also tried one of their yuzu chocolates and it was delicious. The puffs were definitely worth the wait! I cut each in half and shared with a friend. We both agreed on which was best. Although all three were good, the raspberry earl grey was my favorite! I'll definitely make the trip back to Beta 5 the next time I'm in the area. Even without the cream puffs, the candy is worth it! read more

I bookmarked this place as a place with really cool cream puffs and was the reason I made a visit here, but seeing recent reviews and checking their IG page after-the-fact, they are no longer available. They do sell some nice artisanal chocolates, as the name of this establishment suggests, but I feel like the main charm of going here was gone. Only 2 displays full of the chocolate varieties made the store feel a bit empty, so I, and seems like plenty of people, would want a chance at the cream puffs again. Wonder what the other shelves on display will show to make it look less empty and take advantage of the generous real estate? The chocolates look pretty aesthetic and we even got to sample some, and they were solid. It was a bit on the pricey side, 4 for 15, 6 for 21, etc and the larger orders also give a free chocolate bar at the bottom. read more

These cream puffs were amazing! I placed an order ahead of time online and was able to pick them up for the next day. Online orders were able to be placed up to two weeks in advance. In my order, I got the Fruit Cocktail, Raspberry Earl Grey, Shanghai Fog, and Vietnamese Coffee cream puffs. I gave the Raspberry Earl Grey and Shanghai Fog as gifts so I cannot comment on the taste, but the Vietnamese Coffee cream puff was so delicious! I definitely will be ordering that one again. The Fruit Cocktail was also yummy but I liked the Vietnamese Coffee more out of the two. They are a bit expensive so I most likely will only be getting them on special occasions or if there is a flavor I want to try that is featured. You can see what flavor is featured on their Instagram page. read more

One of the top chocolatiers in Vancouver, they have now grown into a high end dessert cafe. The chocolate flavours are so unique and complex. Receiving a box of Beta5 means you are very special to someone! The cream puffs are also worth trying. They just came out with some Ghibli inspired decorations - must haves for sure. Everything is 5 stars except the price. They know they're good and will make you pay for your addiction! read more

Beta5 was already on my radar the first time I was in Vancouver, but I didn't get a chance to go. I was hoping to go the second time while I was in Vancouver, but it didn't happen. I made it a point that it was a MUST during my most recent trip. I preordered the cream puffs online to ensure I got the flavors I wanted. The only minor problem I had was it asked me to enter a shipping address even though I'm picking up, and won't let me use my US address. I just ended up putting their address. There is a separate door/area then the one to the main store for pick up. I gave them my order number and was given my box of cream puffs. I ordered the mango milk tea, Vietnamese coffee, and Linzer cookie (seasonal). The Linzer cookie was decorated like a mushroom- cute! I loved all of them! It's best to eat them on the same day, as I refrigerated one of them and it wasn't crispy anymore. The next time I'm in Vancouver again, I definitely will come here again. They have rotating flavors and seasonal creations, so there's always something new to try! read more

The place is closed on Sunday til Tuesday. The sign for the shop is not very clear. Disappointed .

Stunningly beautiful, smooth and tasty chocolate. Gorgeous packaging. A huge range of flavours. You can keep coming back to try seasonal flavours too. There's something for everyone. Excellent for gifting or indulging yourself! If it's the choux / cream puffs you want, I recommend pre-ordering online to avoid disappointment! These are truly works of art. Great as a show piece for dinner parties. The shop is a beautiful retail space and cafe! Hidden in an industrial neighbourhood, it's a breath of fresh air stepping into this space. The staff were very helpful in answering our questions and carefully packaging our selections. read more

Amazing! I'll be honest, I was a bit skeptical coming here as I thought it was just another bougie place that only looked cute but had no flavor. Also since we were coming for cream puffs and not chocolates. Came in a couple hours before closing on a Wednesday and they only had a few cream puffs left. The staff was helpful and advised us to come in the next day in the morning. We did just that and it did not disappoint! The pastry itself had the perfect amount of crunch - haven't had a cream puff like it! The filling of the raspberry early grey was okay. I felt like the raspberry was too overpowering and wasn't able to taste the earl grey as much. However, I do think they're the perfect amount of sweetness! They of course have a variety of chocolates to choose from as well which were good - but I'd come back for the cream puffs! read more

Cream puffs are delicious but I only really enjoyed 2/3 which is their vanilla and chai. The mango was interesting but didn't love it. The cream puffs were beautiful and you could tell they were made with high quality ingredients, but still a bit on the pricier side. That said, I would still recommend ordering this. My other favorite thing at Beta5 is their chocolate bars. They're beautiful and made with chocolate that's sooo smooth and delicious. I bought over 5 of them since they make for great gifts and travels well but again, super pricey. So why 4 stars instead of 5? While I love the things I mentioned above, I also wasted a lot of money on their chocolate bonbons. They're beautifully crafted and visually stunning --and also how I got suckered, but they're no where as good as the chocolate bars. Personally for me, the flavors of the bonbons didn't work that well and didn't pop for me. I gave a box to a friend as a gift and they were also disappointed as well as they were lackluster and forgetful. read more

SAKURA SEASON HAS COME TO AN END... Even @beta5chocolates Caught the last of their April 2024 cream puffs a few weeks ago and they were the perfect treat. I love how their cream puffs are never too sweet, and are always made with such imaginative flavours! Their cream puff shells are also perfection--so crisp, puffy, and thin. The bakery/chocolate shop is small but bright and comfortable. There are a few tables and bar seating scattered about where you can sit and enjoy your sweet treats. There isn't much interaction with the staff aside from when you are selecting your cream puffs and chocolates. I do have to say though; every time I come here the staff seem a bit standoff-ish. Not sure if it's just me overthinking things but I've never had a really warm/welcoming interaction with the staff here. It's not a big deal but just something to note, maybe I've just always visited on bad days is all. Will still be back for more cream puffs if I'm in the area! Genmaicha Kinako 8/10 The roasted kinako flavour gave just a hint of nuttiness, personally would've preferred a stronger flavour but it was still delicious!

Beta5 is consistently amazing! Their cream puffs never disappoint! Still crispy, crunchy pastry, with creamy, flavorful, delicious cream inside! Their location has not changed, but they have had an interior face lift! Prior to Covid, they opened up for some small section of sit in dining, but that quickly reverted back. I'm not complaining. When you order to go... I tend to order more/enough to have more than one. More like one whole dozen! They've recently started a points/rewards system too! So don't forget to sign up for that! read more

Obviously a nice bakery, but they sometimes close early and literally aren't there and they don't pick up the phone so you can't even call to ask if they'll really be open or if they decided to take off early. If you call, you get a phone tree where they say they often don't pick up the phone because they're so busy (they say you can leave a voicemail but you should email if you have something important). I wouldn't normally mind that, but if you have a shop where people just close up shop early and sometimes aren't there, it really sucks that people can't call to confirm if someone is really there. Of course their phone tree has an option that reads off their hours hours, which you can hear again when you're standing outside the door, wondering why they decided to go home early and aren't open even though their automated message says they're open, but that's just not very useful. read more

Beta 5 Chocolates is hidden but well known in the city for their gourmet cream puffs and rich chocolates. It is located in an industrial area at 413 Industrial Avenue in Vancouver. This time we tried their seasonal Halloween special - MONSTER SQUAD SCREAM PUFF PACK. It included PUMPKIN PETE, KANDI CORN, and MATCHA MO. I was glad that I pre-ordered it online ahead. They were sold out really fast as usual. They were creamy, fluffy, and smooth. They had the perfect amount of sweetness. Never disappointed! Best dessert in town! Instagram-able! Don't ask me which is my favourite. If you offer me another set of cream puffs, maybe I could have a better judgement. I hope you have a spooktacular weekend! Stay safe and happy Halloween!

Everytime i come here the service is beyond difficult cant hear anything they say through the plexiglass at all can never understand what they are saying she seemed to get my order wrong without additional instruction they always ask you stupid questions like what your phone number for contact tracing (stupid its not a sit down restaurant) or do u have an account with us and you say no i dont live here and they ask you again do you have an account and you have to repeat yourself and they always want to sell you three cream puffs even if u dont want that many plus they dont have takeaway cutlery saying they dont want u to eat in the store but i dont want to eat in the stupid store and now i have to walk all the way home half an hour to get a fork as they are too big to bite into (or else go from restaurant to restaurant asking for plastic cutlery) read more

- Beta 5 always have very interesting and pretty seasonal cream puffs. For this year's Halloween they have launched 5 Stuido Ghibli themed cream puffs! As a die-heart Studio Ghibli fan I have to get them. However I only got 4 puffs out of the 5. The 4 puffs includes: SOOT SPRITE- Coconut Pandan Cream Puff (CAD $10) CALCIFER- Shanghai Fog Cream Puff (CAD $10) NO FACE- Raspberry Earl Grey Cream Puff (CAD $9) TOTORO- Vietnamese Coffee Cream Puff (CAD $10) The puffs are superrrr cute. Not only they look cute but they also taste good. I always think Beta 5's puff texture is like on point. It's never soggy and I love the light crunch. I enjoy all of the flavors I ordered. I do wish the Calcifer puff has a stronger tea flavor, but it's still very good. I really like the No Face puff, because theres a great balance between the sweetness of the earl grey cream and tartness of the raspberry. I pre-ordered all four puffs when I saw the announcement post. Unfortunately the pre-order is already sold out and the puffs' quality are limited. You might still be able to pick them up at their store but be quick! Today will be their last day of having these really cute puffs. So make sure to go earlier before they are gone! read more

I realize I'm late to the party, but I FINALLY made it here, to this highly-ranked chocolatier/chocolate foodie "boutique". And I call it a "boutique" because that's what it feels like: a high-end, exclusive shop showcasing beautiful artisan items. Kinda like a gallery of sorts. All the "wares" here are stunningly beautiful. And all the "wares" here are chocolate! You simply CAN'T BEAT THAT!!!! First of all, this tiny shop is in a gritty, industrial part of town, right off Main Street. It could not be more unassuming from the street. It's located in a strip mall/alley beside other businesses like Glory juice and ServiceMasters carpet cleaners, and there are lots of food trucks in the area, too. There is parking in the alley, with a few spots reserved for Beta5 customers. Once you enter the shop, it's like you've entered another dimension: it's stark and bright white, with the pervasive subtle aroma of sweetness in the air. It's as if you left the grey gritty industrial world outside and suddenly entered a sterile white lab. The sudden contrast in environments is startling. And the shop is so small but so cute, with display counters featuring gemstone-like chocolates in the most fabulous array of glossy colors, and then the "creampuffs" of all sorts of wondrous, delectable colors and flavors (unlike any creampuffs I've ever seen), and then gourmet chocolate bars in all sorts of flavors. There's a wall behind with shelves containing boxes of their famous caramels wrapped in chocolate (I've had these before and I HAD to get them again. If you like caramel, THIS is the best in the city, hands down). They also had tins containing various coffees (the packaging on the tins was super cool). They have a few seats here, so you can order some sweets and/or hot beverages and enjoy them here (they also serve coffees and hot drinks here). And the two guys working here when we visited were super nice and super knowledgable about the chocolates here. Bonus! Note: if you need to get a gift for someone who likes high quality treats, you seriously cannot beat getting the small $13 box of caramels here. They are beautifully packaged and are, without question, the best caramels in the city. There are 6 decent-sized pieces in the box, and - bonus! - under the caramels is a rectangular, flat piece of amazing dark chocolate, lining the bottom of the box. It's like a little extra present! Super gift for someone, without breaking the bank. read more

The cream puffs here are genuinely works of art. They are so unique and beautiful, and made up of so many elements. Stopping by for a box of them is a must every time I visit Vancouver. Some of them, like the chocolate and salted caramel, have a cake layer inside and are topped with mousse. Others are just filled with some type of flavored cream, and topped with more cream and decorative elements. They also have seasonal flavors that I think are switched out every month. I've tried almost all of them, and of their regular flavors, my favorite is definitely the salted caramel. The caramel flavor is so rich and the mousse is perfectly light and fluffy. It's such a unique dessert. $7 CAD is a little pricey for cream puffs, but these are definitely worth it. read more

Oldie Review from when I visited from Oct 2018 Lychee Rose Cream Puff Lychee mousse, rose whipped ganache topped with a raspberry macaron This is as elegant as a creampuff can get! I really enjoy sinking my teeth into the crispy puffed shell melding the sweet aromas and richness of the lychee mousse & rose ganache I especially love taking the raspberry macaron off to nibble on so I can get all these great flavours one mouthful at a time I'm a fan of creamy floral flavours so this was a treat! #betabicecreamsocial is a seasonal event that offers sensory overload crafted sundaes made with local in season ingredients for a limited time Mango Bubble Tea Ice Cream Last summer (2018) I had the pleasure of trying the Mango Bubble Tea sundae featuring mango sorbet, milk tea ice cream, mango compote, tapioca pearls, condensed milk chantilly & Hokkaido milk bread. Remember when I mentioned limited time? Well I got to try what was left over of the ingredients... which was still yummy! I suggest going to your ice cream sundae fix ASAP before they're gone to get the whole sensory experience. I'll be back soon!! Two years later I hope to stop by when I'm in Vancouver again!

I'm from the states so not sure if things are operating different due to COVID or this is just how the business is ran. Their was just one flavor of ice cream you can order. It had a bunch of delicious toppings and the ice cream itself was delicious!! Although, I found it odd to be just a 1 item on the menu (and dog treats too). The flavors are updated weekly. We got to try peach or mango I forget which one it was but regardless it was delectable! They also have a small cafe next door as well with pastries. read more

Maybe best to steer clear? I don't know what happened to this place. Their flavours haven't always clicked with me but their quality was above reproach. Sadly, that's no longer the case. I bought a couple of their Mother's Day 3-cream puff boxes. To my dismay, some of the cream puffs were burnt. There was also something baked into the bottom of one that was either a small hair or a piece of bristle, maybe from a pastry brush. How do you let that product go out? I never thought I would have to examine their pastries in-store before walking away with them. Very disappointing. Their customer service is non-existent now, too. No response to email in a week, no one answers their phone in-store, nor do they seem to return calls if you leave a message. The kicker? They were advertising a 15% off sale on 6 or more cream puffs on their website. I bought 6 in total but received 10% off the price of the cream puffs instead... *EDIT* The business did reach out to me and provide me with a full refund for the cream puffs after this review was posted. It's unfortunate that it seemed to take this review to elicit a response from them, though. If I ever return to the store again, I will revise this review, taking any new experiences into account. read more

We were just at the end of our quick trip to Vancouver and stopped at Beta5 before driving back down to Seattle. I had debated on just saying forget it let's just go straight home. But I'm so glad we stopped here. We stopped here at around noon on a Sunday. Luckily there was no line or a crowd at all. There were also plenty of cream puffs available. My sister and I were in awe with how beautiful the cream puffs and chocolates were. They were super friendly and let us take our time to decide on what we wanted. We ended up getting 3 of the staple flavors: lychee rose, Vietnamese coffee, and Queen of Hearts. We got 3 of the seasonal flavors, Rudolph's Nose (strawberry mousse/milk tea mousse), Christmas tree (Black sesame mousse, yuzu curd, and matcha whipped ganache), and the snowball (raspberry mousse, blueberry compote, and passion fruit curd). It was $35 for 7. We made it back to Seattle and immediately tried them all. The Vietnamese coffee tasted like tiramisu, and my husband really enjoyed it. My sister and I loved the seasonal flavors. Rudolph's nose was our favorite, and we fought over the last couple of bites. The strawberry mousse was fantastic and had the perfect texture. I really likes the Christmas tree, I'm a huge fan of the black sesame and yuzu flavors. The lychee rose was good, a little light in flavor but also not as sweet. It was a super light filling as well. The rest of the flavors were good as well, but the Rudolph's Nose was definitely the stand out. The pate a choux was done so well and had a nice crisp outside layer while still being soft on the inside. The chocolates also looked amazing. We tried the salted caramel as well as the mint one, and they were done super well. I wish we had a chance to come back when they're doing their sundaes, because they look amazing! And I love all the creative flavors. We will definitely be making a stop here again the next time we're in Vancouver. read more

Thanks to a very generous giveaway, I was able to participate in the TacofinoxBeta5 collaboration summer social! Part of this social was a chance to try the special sundae for the night at beta 5 which came with shaved mint and lime ice with pineapple compote, avocado ice cream, chantilly cream and churros! The flavours all worked together really well and the churros were done really well but being a mediocre fan of pineapple and lime, I didn't adore this sundae. Again, this is a PERSONAL CHOICE based on taste preferences BUT the avocado ice cream was smooth and creamy and the dessert overall was not overly sweet. For those that like these flavours, this would have been a home run! read more
