Let's talk sweets…read more.. This is a hot topic for me. My specialty. Sweet Relief has been my go-to for special occasion desserts. Their cakes are indulgent and you guessed it--sweet. Not sickly sweet but the perfect amount of sweet. They also prepare little cakettes that are perfect for sharing without a crazy amount of leftovers. This time around I ordered a single slice of their Nanaimo Bar Cake (I've been dying to try this ever since it was listed in Avenue's Top 25 Things to Eat in Calgary) and their small assorted treat box. Let's talk about it... RATING: 9.5/10 - Nanaimo Bar Cake It's brilliant that Sweet Relief does cake by the slice. Sometimes you just can't justify a full cake by yourself (imagine that?). Take two sweet treats, like layered cake and a Nanaimo bar, that are superb on their own and mix them together--a mash-up made in heaven. I never doubted the logic here but it was even more scrumptious than I imagined. My favourite part is the middle layer--the crusty coconut layer, just like the bottom of a Nanaimo bar (the icing on the cake--sorry, bad pun). It's heavy, it's rich, and oh so good! Did I eat this all in one sitting? Hell yeah....I couldn't resist and these are healthy portions. I'd been dreaming about it for days. RATING: 8/10 - Snack Pack I also ordered their small variety snack pack of baked goods. I've only experienced their cakes so I was pumped to try some of their other goodies. While everything was tasty, the rich, moist brownie stood out. I love chocolate. This treasure trove also includes a macaron (tasty blue morsel), sugar cookie (a melt-in-your-mouth bunny). I'm happily anticipating the salted caramel candy bar, sandwich cookie and chocolate covered oreo. Every single treat was crafted and packaged with care. I'm super impressed with the value and quality of everything I bought. Whether you're looking for a special occasion cake or decide you deserve a treat and who doesn't during these long, dark days of isolation? Check out Sweet Relief to fulfill all your cravings.

Being able to order online and have it delivered was super convenient. And the cake - the CAKE! This was actually the best cake I've ever had in my entire life. It was beautiful to look at. I'd ordered a cake that isn't fully iced (the churro cake) so was a wee bit worried about it being dry. Not the case at all. I keep trying to describe it, but all of the adjectives just fall short. It was exactly the right taste and texture. Super moist, but not mushy. Smelled and looked amazing. 10/10 will be ordering for all of the special things!!

I got the Dalgona shaved ice which was topped with a scoop of ice cream and a honeycomb sugar cookie. The cookie itself is a little overpowering by itself, but if you break chunks of it off to eat with the shaved ice it's absolutely perfect. The shaved ice was really smooth. It was the perfect size and pretty light, so I still had plenty of room for dinner later. There's additional seating on the second story, and very cute and aesthetic. My mom tried the seasonal corn latte and she really enjoyed it. Might sound a bit strange, but the corn flavor is pretty subtle but the latte was very creamy. Really glad we stumbled upon this cute dessert shop! The staff were really friendly and provided some recommendations.

We finally made it out to try XO Ice Cream and Waffles. It's tough to try new ice cream spots out…read morewhen the big 3 dominate in Cowtown. However, we were in the area so my sister suggested making a pitstop for dessert. We dropped in on a Tuesday afternoon (around 1:00pm). It's a tiny shop; currently only allowing one person/family in at a time. There was about 20 flavors to choose from (seasonal and summer specials). Sad that you currently can't sample any flavours. Lime cilantro sorbet (that wasn't listed) peaked my interest. - Double scoop ($8.00) - we added a waffle one ($1.00) and decided on the sour cherry and guava papaya sorbet as our two flavours. They were very generous scoops. The sour cherry was the winner with real pieces of cherry (a slightly sour bite). Stronger in papaya than guava flavour. I think their sorbet texture could use a bit of work but overall, we were happy campers. - Single scoop ($6.00) - my sister went with the same flavours as we weren't sharing. Always nice when you have the options to choose two flavours in a single scoop. Credit cards only. Massive scoops. 3.5 stars.

Not sure who's craving dessert at that hour, but clearly there's demand. The interior is cute and nicely decorated, and the menu offers plenty of choices. That said, the options felt pretty standard--mostly crepes or waffles with ice cream and toppings. Nothing really stood out as unique. We ordered the Ferrero crepe with vanilla ice cream. The crepe itself was tasty, but I wish they were a bit more generous with the ice cream and whipped cream since the portions felt small. Overall, it was an okay experience--not bad, but not a must-visit either.

I have visited this dessert café many times because I enjoyed the desserts and often came here with…read morefriends. However, I don't plan to visit as often anymore. Every time I come, I am consistently seated near the entrance, even though there are many other tables available. I also always order a decaf Americano. On one occasion, despite ordering a decaf Americano, I was served a latte instead and was told that decaf Americano was not available at this café. I have allergies to both milk and caffeine. The drink was only replaced after I clearly explained my allergies to the staff member who was serving me. I was even charged an additional fee for making the drink iced that day. What I found hard to understand was that the same staff member asked me to leave a Google review at the time -- which is why I am writing this review today. This is a menu item I order regularly, which made the situation even more confusing. Overall, the repeated seating choices and lack of attentiveness made me feel uncomfortable and singled out as a customer. I hope the staff can be more considerate and consistent in their service going forward.
