Since I live in Richmond, Kitchening & Co's main shop is a bit of a drive for me so I have never physically visited the store myself, but I believe that they sell their famous macarons all across BC! I have heard that Edible Canada on Granville Island carries Kitchening & Co products so I may just have to check it out in case I have a craving for their amazing Ginger Chocolate Cookies later in the year!

This review is solely on the Cheesecake Factory Cheesecakes they sell. I just recently discovered…read morethat you can buy slices (or even whole cheesecakes, apparently) of Cheesecake Factory Cheesecake here. They don't obviously have every flavor, but a few of the popular ones. I love Cheesecake Factory Cheesecake so I was very excited to try it out. I decided on the Cinnabon Layer Cheesecake. The reason for only 4 stars is because the slice of cheesecake is pretty small (definitely not as substantial as you get south of the border) and isn't cheap ($8.99). Moreover, it comes unembellished, meaning no whipped cream or what have you. However, the cheesecake itself was very yummy (I added my own whipped cream, which I highly recommend). What's more, the woman working at this location was so nice. I'll definitely be back to try more flavors!

I'm not quite sure when this location opened up, but it's new enough that they still don't have…read moretubs of frozen yogurt pre-prepped for sale. There's plenty of seating available inside, and tons of parking in the lot. Flavours range from the usual vanilla, tart, sorbet stuff. My friends and I found ourselves pleasantly surprised by the KitKat and Root Beer Float flavours. What I appreciate most about this location is how clean it is. In comparison to the Walnut Grove location, I would say that it's cleaner, although they definitely lose points over the lack of stock in the fridges and such. Staff aren't quite fully trained on the whole smiles point system either, but people who come regularly enough know to ask about it in order to get their points and such. I'd definitely come back if I'm in the area and am in the mood of frozen yogurt, but the overall experience wasn't exceptional enough that I would go out of my way to return.

Everything was fresh and delicious -- you can really taste the quality. One of the coolest parts is that they make their cheese right on site, and there are big windows so you can actually watch the process. It's such a unique and charming touch that makes the place feel special. Before I left, I picked up some of their chive Havarti cheese -- and let me tell you, it did not disappoint. Creamy, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Friendly staff, cozy vibe, and amazing food. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in the area -- both for a meal and to stock up on cheese!

A hidden treasure nestled away in Langleys industrial neighborhood. I first discovered their Main…read moreStreet location and made it a regular stop. They make outstanding pies, hand pies, tarts, macaron's, breads and fresh baked --made to order cakes. Today was just to grab some macarons and a strawberry rhubarb hand pie. The passion fruit is delicious--:-). I love their baked goods so delectable and made with love. I also ordered a birthday cake --vanilla caramel which was delicious. The inside of the cake was moist and had a nice texture however, Just a little bit of feedback the icing on the cake was a thick slab of butter. Usually butter cream is sugary sweet and rich, but the cake must have been made by a trainee, because they forgot to add flavour tot he icing. It must have been a mistake because it tasted odd. I will be following up with the owner.

The selection at Nature's Fare Markets was mind-blowing…read more My husband was wise and grabbed a seat in their cafe area - since it was evident that I was waaaay too thrilled to be walking down every aisle in this healthy oasis. This place is not cheap - but they have put together an incredible assortment of organic/healthy grocery items. They have it all when it comes to keto, gluten-free, vegan, sugar-free items and much more. I picked up some vegan cheese, some paleo snacks, and a single serving of matcha. I was actually surprised at the restraint that I showed - especially with the array of mouth watering desserts beckoning me as - you enter (the vegan/gluten free carrot cake looked amazing). They also have some decent looking pre-made take-away options, as well as freshly made smoothies - if you're looking for a quick nourishing bite. Support local and get your grocery on. I guarantee that it will be hard to walk out of here empty-handed. Trust.

North Vancouver is a hub for Persian bakeries, but I'd never been to one until recently. In the…read moreprocess of writing an article on Asian bakeries in Metro Vancouver, I jumped at the opportunity to check this place out. Here is everything I tried the first time I visited: 1. Jalebi: enjoyed the slightly crunchy texture, but on its own it was a little too sweet for me. Would have again with tea. 2. Chickpea cookies: you know that delicious, melt-in-your-mouth quality you get with shortbread? These cookies were like that, but even better because they weren't overly sweet! 3. Shortbread sandwich: that's what I'm calling this treat, because it had two sun/star-shaped cookies with a layer of jam in between. The two elements were perfectly balanced! 4. Assorted shortbread: if I remember correctly, the flavours were lime and cardamom. Both were good, but not my favourites in this dessert box. 5. Heaven shortbread: definitely lived up to its name. Out of all the shortbread cookies, this one was the most buttery. 6. Apricot pistachio cookies: these were my favourite cookies. The apricot jam was sweet and tart, and the pistachios on top added a bit of texture contrast, which I always appreciate. 7. Baklava: I've seriously been missing out on good baklava until now. Despite the stickiness, it wasn't too sweet. And the mixed nut filling was sooooo good. The spices mixed in made this treat even more craveable! 8. Coconut macaroons: didn't even make it out of the parking lot before devouring these, lol. The macaroons were golden on the outside, moist and chewy inside, and the layer of cream sandwiched in between was light and airy. The perfect bite! Kourosh has become a go-to spot whenever my family has a sweet craving. Service is always super friendly and everything is very affordable. Thank you Kourosh!

Kourosh Bakery is located in Lynn Valley Mall which also houses their grocery store (Super Koroush). We dropped in on a Saturday afternoon (around 4:00pm) to grab some sweets to take home. They usually offer samples but not during the pandemic. Their display cases had a variety of cakes, cookies, baklava and goodies. All sold by the weight ($9.99/lb). - Box ($10.00 for 10) - we opted for the coconut macaroons, walnut cookies, pistachio apricot, wild pistachio blueberries, apple filling and three pieces of baklava (cashew cinnamon, phyllo walnut and mixed nuts). The coconut macaroons and walnut cookies were similar in texture; soft and delightfully chewy. The pistachio apricot reminds me of my childhood (eating those Linzer cookies). We didn't love the apple filling or pistachio blueberry; more of a dry texture and it needed more filling. Baklava wasn't too sweet. Come for those deliciously soft and chewy macaroons! 3.5 stars.
