After hearing about Sweet E's Pavlova, only available in the summer, from my coworker 2 years ago, I finally had a chance to try it myself. Sweet E's is a bit far for me so it is not easy to drop by often. I have tried their cakes before and they were also very nice. This time dropping by, not only did I get the Pavlova, I also ended up getting 6 mini cakes: - Pavlova - 5 stars - light with just the right amount of sweetness. I recommend waiting until later in the summer when mixed seasonal fruit is available. A really delightful dessert. -raspberry-chocolate mini cake - 5 stars - I like the strong raspberry flavour and the raspberry mousse is a bit tart which I didn't mind at all. -vanilla mango - 4 stars - really delightful mango pudding cake. This is good for someone who do not like their desserts too sweet. -lemon - 4 stars - I didn't try this one my self but my brother in law said it taste very typical. Rating: 1 - Poor, 2 - OK, 3 - Good, 4 - Very Good, 5 - Excellent read more

The Bourbon Pecan tart was excellent! Deep flavor without being too sweet or heavy, and the candied pecans were so aromatic. As beautiful as it is delicious read more

Really good desserts come out of the family owned restaurant. One suggestion: ORDER IN ADVANCE! During summer when berries are in season, this is one of the only places in Vancouver that you can get pavlova cake. And they do it damn good. Also during thanksgiving time... their pumpkin pies are to die for. Best I've had yet. Also during Christmas time, they stop taking orders after the first week of December... so don't wait!! Or else you'll be sorry your eating Costco pies instead of sweet e's! read more

Mini Lemon Tarts! Mini Cheesecake - whichever flavor they have in the case Birds Nest Cookies Truffle Pops.. Bring any of these to me and you will be my favorite person! All the goodies are made lovingly on site. One of my favourite places to pick up some items for visiting friends. read more

I ordered a carrot cake from here earlier in the month and it was so moist and tasty. Love the icing and not too sweet. Perfect size during COVID since we couldn't celebrate with family and friends. We also ordered the lemon cranberry biscotti and it didn't even last a week. Soooo good! Please update your hours on your website. We came down on a Sunday to pick up more biscotti but you were closed! read more

I have looked all over the city for festive decorated cookies and finally found a superb selection here at this bakery. All of the hand decorated cookies look fabulous and they have that Food Network Cookie Challenge look that I was going for. I think Santa will love these cookies. Their famous passion fruit melties had a nice tropical lightness and provide a contrast to some of the sweeter cookies. They have sugar cookies, chocolate chip, gingerbread and many more. I plan to make this my annual go to whenever I'm buying Christmas cookies. read more

We have been ordering our cakes from here for years and are happy to drive long distances just to get them. The ladies at this bakery are kind and consistently do amazing work with all their baking. We just picked up a cake yesterday and we're not surprised at all when all of our guests asked for seconds. Highly recommend that you try this bakery! read more

After being told about their Pavlovas we had to try one, today was the day I found myself in the area so I popped in and scooped 1 up. OMG... to die for!! Light airy meringue piled high and baked perfectly crisp then the center was filled with luscious whipped cream garnished with fresh summer fruit and berries....yummmm...going back tomorrow to get another for a friends birthday, probably 1 for myself too.A definite must try!! read more

I am a huge fan of sweet e's and make sure to stop by every time I'm in Vancouver. This time had a chance to finally try their famous fruit filled pavlova which is only made seasonally when local fruit is fresh and available. Additionally got my fill on my favorite cookies of all time... passion fruit melties. These cookies melt in your mouth. I always crave these and buy out the daily stock on the days that I go. Three sisters, Eleanor, Kathleen, and Theresa own and started this pastry shop. They're incredibly nice and greet their regulars by name when they come in to visit! Definitely a must visit place when you're in Vancouver! read more

Absolutely adddoooorreee this little bake shop! Where my other favorite dessert shop Ganache is all that is chic & elegant, Sweet E's is all that is adorable and oh-so-lovely! I am obsessed with their miniature desserts as I am very big on variety when it comes to my sweets. My favorites have to be their mini lemon meringue pies, blueberry cheese cakes, and chocolate brownies. Oh and did I mention their cupcakes are to die for? Seriously, that's a pretty big statement coming from me because well....awkward pause...I sorta hate cupcakes. I know, I know...who hates cupcakes?!! Well the cupcakes of my past have largely been of the dense dried bricks crowned with diabetically sweet icing variety. The cupcakes here could not be more different! They are fluffy and moist, not too sweet, with a perfect airy whipped topping. Also, they make great cakes for special occasions. Take a flip through their albums to see some of the amazing cakes they've done for weddings, birthdays, etc...I was most impressed by their children's cakes, some of which were too cute for words! read more

A sweet bakery that borders on mediocre. Somehow, the bakery's cuteness feels forced. There are just too many bite- sized pieces, but only a few normal sized desserts. A good selection of mini pastries but only 1 chocolate cake and 1 cupcake. Out of the 6 bite- sized desserts that we bought, our taste buds were only impressed with one. The pumpkin pie, our favorite, has good flavors without being overtly sweet. The apple crumble, macaroons, and lemon meringue was mediocre and sadly unmemorable. After checking their online menu, I feel cheated because they only had the chocolate cake. Where are the carrot cake or cheesecake? Their lack of selection has cost them another star. read more

sweet e's is a little pastry shop owned by three sisters. When you walk in you'll be overwhelmed by the smell of deliciousness. They sell a variety of cakes, muffins, cookies and tarts. They do wedding and specialty cakes too. They also have a whole slew of mini cupcakes and mini tarts. The minis are bite size with the tarts going for $2 and the cupcakes around $1-$1.50. They also sell pretty truffle pops for $1.50. My wife and I picked up a few to try, you know, for research purposes. I wasn't that impressed by the mini cupcakes. The frosting wasn't as sweet as I like it. However, the mini pecan tart was fantastic. I look forward to coming back to do a little more research at sweet e's. read more

Delicious baked goods that look just as good as they taste. I had a birthday cake ordered here made with vanilla and mango. It was so good! The outside fondant looked awesome. I went back and tried a couple of their cookies and cupcakes which were pretty good. There wasn't much variety in store, and I get the impression they do most of their business in pre-ordered goods. Definitely would come back the next time I need a cake for a special occasion =) read more

Best kept secret in Kerrisdale. Three sisters own this place and the love they pour into each individual custom cookie and mini tart and delicious down to the goodness cake is endless. They source the best local coffee and honey and other goodies on their grab and go shelf. read more

I love this place! I've ordered about 4 cakes from here and each one has been amazing. The lemon meringue cake is by far my favorite and I will definitely be ordering it again. Its really hard to walk away with just a cake though, everything in the cake is always so cute and drool worthy, I always end up getting 4-5 mini desserts and a bunch of macaroons. The macaroons by the way are wonderful! Much better than the ones at Thierry and other most bakeries in Vancouver. As for a mini desserts its really a hit or miss at times. Though they look so great, some of them really lack in the taste department. read more

This is our office treat day go to. Perfect bite sized pastries with crazy depth of flavour. In the fall they have pumpkin pie tarts, and you can taste a hint of bourbon spiked in them...Delish. My current favourites: mini bourbon pecan tarts and mini banana cream pie. Minus 1 star for a bad experience getting quotes for wedding desserts. Redeemed by the delish foods. read more

Adorable bakery! I was given short notice (2 business days) to get a cake for my boss' birthday and a couple of my favorites in town said they couldn't get one done that quickly. Popped into Sweet E's and the timeframe was tight but they said they could get it done - whew! Very friendly and helpful service during ordering and at pick-up. Cakes are beautifully decorated and there's a nice variety to please most tastes. I went with the chocolate silk which is a light chocolate cake with chocolate filling and ganache on top. The cake is a touch drier than I would like and I would have liked a richer flavor, but otherwise it went over very well. I would probably go with the flourless chocolate or the chocolate pecan next time since I like things a bit richer. I was very pleased with the service which bumps it up from a 3.5 star to 4 star for me. Prices are reasonable - ordered a 8" square which is about the equivalent of a 10" circle for just under $50. Definitely beats sweating in the kitchen myself! read more

I read reviews on Yelp about this place and decided to try it on Fathers day. We purchased the Black and White cake, blueberry mini cheese cakes, pecan tarts and mini chocolate Cupcakes. Everything was excellent especially the black and white cake. Highly recommend! Cheers! read more

Cake, cake, cake... There is no shortage of bakeries in Kerrisdale, but I always come to Sweet E's when I need to buy birthday cakes. It's sort of off at the end of the main street but I keep coming back for the high quality cakes. It's also usually pretty quiet so no lines. A good place to pick up seasonal sweets for a party or just as a treat for your family or yourself. I recently bought ghost and pumpkin cookies for the office, which disappeared so fast I didn't get a chance to taste them myself. So I assume the cookies are as delicious as the cake. Friendly and fast service. Will keep coming back! read more

I'd tried several cakes and tarts and I like them. They look pretty with the right amount of sweetness. Service is okay. I'm hoping they would invent some exclusive flavours. read more

The best bakery in Vancouver. Top quality ingredients, beautiful presentation, original designs and so, so delicious. I especially love the mini tarts. Forget cupcakes, these are the perfect tiny treat. read more

I love their mini tarts. It's delicious and not too sweat. The service was quiete good, but they close very early. Their pastries are very fresh. It worth to try it. read more

The cake I got was a 4" flourless chocolate butter pecan cake. It was rich in chocolate flavor. A must get if you love chocolate. read more

Their 'specialty' lemon meringue pie is indeed outta-this-world good. While not exactly cheap at $9.50 each (nothing in Kerrisdale is really), it's worth every penny IMHO. The top's light yet creamy, lemon middle has enough zing to it, and the crust is absolutely buttery! No wonder it's their signature offering. A must-try. read more

Small bakery with cute little cakes that are to die for. Okay maybe that is going a little too far, however, they have amazing cakes. They make use of their space by only having the best of the best. I came here with a girlfriend of mine for a cake tasting for a wedding. They make amazing cakes. I love their individual cheese cakes. Customer service was friendly. read more

Great cakes!!! Fabulous brownies!!! (my personal favourite - they are chocolatey, in part thanks to the ganache, and not overly sweet). The little pecan tarts are delightful and when in season the pavlovas are tasty treats. They carry some lovely bread on Saturdays. The staff are lovely. Best bakery in Kerrisdale by far. read more

I just start working around this area recently and I am so glad I found this little sweet shop. The bite size cream pies are delicious and to die for. They are little bite size of little heavens. I highly recommend the bananas cream pie and pecan pie. I am so glad I found a place with little dessert that makes you feel less guilty. read more

Sweet E's has the most beautiful and delectable desserts! Everything tastes as good as it looks. It's a good thing I don't live in Vancouver, because I would not have the will power to keep myself from eating pastries from Sweet E's every day! The desserts have such amazing flavor and texture, and everything is flavorful and just the right amount of sweet without being overly sweet. They have a lot of small bite size items and smaller 6" cakes that you can try in the shop, and you can place custom / larger orders ahead of time. The sisters who own the shop are the nicest people and will take good care of you. If you're there in the summer, try the pavlova! Passion fruit melties are my favorite any time of the year. The blueberry lime tarts are refreshing and delicious too. Actually, everything is amazing. Just go! Now! read more

I love this place! If you go there you have to try the truffle pops! They are absolutely delicious. The chocolate just melts in your mouth, and it's so smooth. At only 1.50 each, they are totally worth it. I order cakes from here and they never disappoint. read more
