The generous amount of whipped cream on the top of matcha latte. This whipped cream had mint flavor. The mint flavor was not overpowering, so, it was paired with Matcha latte so well! I was quite surprised this creation! Matcha flavor was strong and staff carefully crafted each drinks one by one. Sweetness level was also good. I highly recommend this matcha latte! This is a limited item!

I got their lavender fog, blueberry streusel, and almond croissant. The cookies are best warmed up…read more The texture is a crunchy outside soft and chewy inside. I really enjoyed the almond croissant had a nice filling. Id say this time around their cookies were a bit harder on the outside than usual and were a bit less enjoyable. Even after warming them up in the microwave they were still to hard in the outside layers.

Stephanie is both talented and awesome!…read more I originally found her through Instagram, but since then, she was a vendor at one of my larger events and she gave out a variety of cupcakes and cookies, which were all well recevied and delicious. I recently ordered 3 dozen mini cupcakes for a smaller event - 1 dozen carrot cake, 1 dozen lemon vanilla, and 1 dozen double chocolate. All the guests and I loved them! They were the perfect little treat. For a small price of $8, she'll also deliver the baked goods to wherever you are. This was a huge bonus since I was already running around doing errands before my event. Both times I've worked with her, she's been quick to respond, great with communication, and very professional. If I'm in need of custom baked goods, Stephanie will be my go to from now on! I can't recommend her enough!

After hearing about Sweet E's Pavlova, only available in the summer, from my coworker 2 years ago,…read moreI 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

This place has been a Christmas family tradition for decades for us. Last year and this one we…read moredecided were sub-par,.. we can do better. The people were pleasant enough, but not efficient like they used to be, we feel the ownership likely has changed and the recipes are a bit dated so without the "old school feel" we are decided this was our last year.

We walked past several bakeries on Hastings and circled back to Valley Bakery…read more This bakery had an enormous amount of pastries, cakes, breads and so many cookies to choose from by the dozen. I loved the variety and the artistic vibes that stood out with the pastries that we had to take a few home to enjoy. Friendly service by the 2 girls who greeted us.

Went after work as it's on the way out. Not too busy, bright pink colors, clean counters and…read morefloor. Ordered from the kiosk screen to the left of the shop. Ordered a 12 pc mini cookie pack. I didn't try all as I was giving the rest away to friends. I tried the chocolate chip and the chocolate brownie cookie. Both were very good but a bit too sweet for me. That's it however just me I don't have a big sweet tooth though this would be s nice treat once in awhile. My only complaint is there needs to be strict adherence to cookie size. There was one noticeably smaller cookie in my box than the rest. This kind of goes with a review I saw her earlier with a weird shaped chocolate cookie. For the price these cookies are they should all be the same size and look nice and round. I know the taste is not affected by its shape but this is a business, ppl are buying a product and if it isn't the same size it shouldn't be given to the customer. Other than that very good cookies. I also tried a dirty soda. It was ok. Personally not worth it but if your there might as well try once.

Part deux / second chances / try again / Cookie Monster - poosible names for my review of Crumbl…read more So yes this was a second attempt after a failed first attempt last year at Crumbls first Metro Vancouver location in Port Coquitlam. It is located at the bustling Ironwood Plaza, in Richmond. Remember to listen to the traffic report, when heading over here or you could get caught up in heavy rush hour traffic = fun fun ... not! The line-up was steady with excitement. I asked the door / greater person for recommendations. Service was positive & friendly. This is a 'grab & go' set-up = no seating available. I went with the mini cookies option - I highly recommend ordering this way as the cookies are quite sugary but still very good. These cookies ain't cheap & are therefore a - once in awhile treat for me. I had the following cookies ... Green Mint Brownie (X2), Choc Chunk, Cookies & Cream, Key Lime Pie & a Brownie Batter. These cookies can pack quite a punch - anywhere from 600 - 900+ calories. The flavours change weekly - check the online menu on the website. I tasted all 5 flavours I got & to my surprise - I really enjoyed them all. I ordered an excellent tasting pop drink as well - Over the Rainbow (Sprite, Orange syrup, Raspberry fruit, Lemon & candy). Crumbl is actually open quite late especially on weekends. Note - closed on Sundays. I shall return as I truly am a - Cookie Monster. The second time around at Crumbl, truly is the charm.

Our workplace has ordered cupcakes from Bluebird a couple of times now. Every time their cupcakes…read morehave been a big hit. It was a disappointment that I couldn't taste them all. The cupcakes are moist & tasty with not too sweet icing. There's a filling inside. We ordered triple chocolate, cookies n' cream, red velvet, salted caramel chocolate, simply vanilla, strawberry cheesecake, & 2 others. If you love chocolate, go for the salted caramel. It's my favourite. They're baked fresh. Cupcakes are perfect for any occasion especially if everyone has different taste preferences.

The cake is nice and moist, and more importantly not too sweet! My aunties are usually put off by super rich desserts but they're always fighting over the cupcakes. Salted caramel is a big favourite, strawberry cheesecsame with the banana cake - but my personal favourite is London Fog. We recently brought some back to New York for my husband's colleagues, and they've said it's the best they've ever had, and are requesting fresh cupcakes each time we come back to Vancouver for a visit. So keep doing what you're doing - because my husband's job depends on it!

Lol. How do I edit my check in comments? Forgot to proof read…read more Anyway, as I was saying, my weakness is freshly baked goodies like you'll find here. Pies and pastries, breads, tarts, cheesecake and other temptations that entice you from the display window. Always prompt service at this little family run store in the heart of "Davie-Town". Easy to maneuver into store in a scooter, so senior friendly. Fill up a box of goodies and go home to tea! Try not to eat it all at once.

Ok, so I've never had the savory/meat rolls here, so I can't review those at all, but all the…read morepastries my family and I have had here were terrific. So I thoroughly recommend the sweet dessert offerings this place offers. There's always been a decent selection of cookies and dessert bars and pastries when we've visited, and they all look enticing. Last time we visited, we each had different types of cookies: they were all large, fresh and delicious. My kid loves the Nanaimo bars. And the prices are really reasonable, too. I always think I should get a loaf of bread here, as there's always a good selection of loaves, and they're like half the price (or less!) of comparable-looking loaves in all other stores I've been to. But I never have, as I've always had a newly-bought loaf at home. One day....!!! Counter staff here has always been friendly to us. This place is not big or cutesy or fancy, but it's always been clean and, hey, it sells desserts. We love that!

Not worth the money. Our cupcakes were dry, lacking taste or flavour, and not enough icing.

Great service. Great product…read more I inquired about Marvel cupcakes and emailed a sample of what I was thinking about. She emailed me back and spoke to me on the phone. Great choice of cakes and frostings. I got chocolate cupcakes with Oreo buttercream frosting. And she got the cutest Marvel medallions for me - the Hulk, Spider-Man, Iron Man and Captain America. They were perfect and delicious! I would highly recommend them. You have to give a few days notice for special artwork.
