We recently ordered cupcakes with Delectable Desserts for a very special occasion. They were…read moreabsolutely perfect! Right after opening up the box, we were totally impressed with the beautiful presentation. These cupcakes were just incredibly decorated. Each one of them was like a small piece of art. We had a sampling of a number of flavors, all of which were successes. The cakes were incredibly moist and light, sweet but not too sweet. The frosting was very smooth and creamy, full of flavor, not too sweet, and complemented the cake. Delectable Desserts really made our occasion special. Their attention to detail and commitment to quality really showed in every single bite. The service was great. The hospitality of the staff, warm and accommodating, showed in their passion for the job. They made sure everything was perfect with our ordered dish and delivered it on time, hence making the experience seamless and a joyful one. In short, we could not be more pleased with our Delectable Desserts cupcakes. They were truly the star dessert of the show at our special party, and our friends and family just loved them. We would enthusiastically recommend Delectable Desserts to any event a client wants to add a touch of sweet and classy to. Five stars all the way!

I just discovered Birdie's when looking around Halifax / Dartmouth for a true long ferment…read moresourdough bread. Most bakeries use yeast along with the sourdough starter to help speed along the ferment and shorten rise time. I was extremely pleased to find that Birdie's does not use any yeast and makes a true sourdough. This gives those with IBS an opportunity to eat bread again as the long sourdough ferment reduces some of the digestion issues that gluten causes. We took a Seedy Sourdough and a White Sourdough and a Pain au Chocolat for good measure. On our drive home I said, "Damn, we should have bought more sourdough as these two loaves will not last long". The taste is fantastic and I highly recommend Birdie's.

It's always good news when a new bakery opens in town -- or a fresh lunch option near your…read moreworkplace! I was happy to hear we'd get a new bakery near the Woodside ferry (not far from Dartmouth General, NSCC Waterfront Campus, and the NS Hospital), and yesterday I popped in to see what was for lunch. Running short on cash, I couldn't try some bread as well as something to hold me over for the afternoon, but for $7.50 I picked up a very healthy, delicious, and filling tex-mex (special of the day) "grain bowl" made with wheat and other grains (millet?), corn, black beans, green onions, jalapenos, a savoury spicy dressing, and because I asked if there happened to be any cheese around, some old cheddar grated on top. It was substantial, tasty, and very fresh! They have beautiful looking breads that I'll be back to try soon, as well as house made granola and a small selection of pastries. I almost went for a goat cheese and vegetable galette for my lunch before I spotted the grain bowl lunch special. Pain au chocolate was on offer along with a couple of other pastries still available at lunch time. The selection is only going to grow, so I look forward to a future visit soon. The shop space is light and airy with lots of natural sun and glass and light coloured wood all around. There are a few seating options including a big couch, cafe tables, and a breakfast bar in the window to really soak up the sun. Neighbouring lunch options include Habaneros, Cheese Curds, and Subway in the same business block, so a bakery offering sourdoughs and whole grain breads is a nice fresh option!

Happy to review such a great local business for my 100th. 24 Carrots is surrounded in a stripmail…read moreof auto supply and detailing shops. I ordered 40 of their carrot cake cupcakes for a birthday party and they had to be just right. 24 Carrots delivered! The cakes were perfect. The right balance of icing and cake; unlike some of the other bakeries which have globs of icing in them and dry cake with no flavour. The cake was rich with a hint of spice and a few bits of walnuts in it. At $2 a cake I think these guys are the lowest priced local bakery in town too. The bakery was very professional. It was no problem to substitute the normal, carrot decoration for a custom message. My order was all packaged up and waiting for me when I told them I would pick it up.
