Valentine’s Day is all about loving, thoughtful surprises… And of course Sweet Treats.
To help you be the hero this Valentine’s Day, I hit the streets of Calgary to round up my top 5 limited edition sugary confections which I think will help you show your loved one your ‘sweet’ side.
1. Crave Cookies & Cupcakes
Cinnamon Swirl Loaf ($12), Chocolate Cinnamon Sandwich Cookie (6 for $19.50), Personalized Sugar Cookies ($6.95) & Cinnamon Heart Cupcakes (6 for $18.95) – Crave Cookies & Cupcakes
Crave never ceases to impress and they’ve got many options for Valentine’s themed and personalized items this year…
2. Papa Chocolat
18 piece Wild Strawberry Truffle Filled Heart ($45.95) – Papa Chocolat
I’ve had the chance to visit this magical chocolate factory and watched famed chocolatier Bernard Callebaut carefully hand filling each truffle found inside. From his heart all the way to your loved one’s!
3. Corbeaux Bakehouse
Raspberry Macaron Tart, Dulce de Leche Cheesecake, Chocolate & Passionfruit Tart – Corbeaux Bakehouse
($4.95+)
Dinner at home and an outing for dessert. Corbeaux Bakehouse has the most unique, beautiful and delicious sweet creations in the city.
4. Fiasco Gelato
Cinnamon Heart Marshmallows ($6) and 4 limited edition gelato flavours: Chocolate Dipped Strawberry, Angel Food Cake, Raspberry Dark Chocolate & Red Velvet Cream Cheese (9$ each) – Fiasco Gelato
Heat things up and then cool them down with Fiasco Gelato’s creamy treats. The best thing about this sweet is that you can order them for delivery on Valentine’s Day itself!
5. Holt Renfrew
Charbonnel & Walker Champagne Truffles ($10-$75) – Holt Renfrew
Each year Holt Renfrew imports these delicate truffles from all the way from London just so you can say “I Love You” on February 14th!
This Saturday,
Show Your Love & Show Your Sweet Side!
Mr. Fab tine’s day
Great ideas – Crave is killing it this year with their Valentines selection and the Angel Food Cake gelato has been on my list since it came out!
