Review The Sweet Oven - Barrie

These are the absolute best butter tarts ever. I often buy them for clients and feedback is always amazing. Would have given five stars however when you buy a batch of six they always put one in that is not perfect looking. This is disappointing, they should sell imperfect ones separately. I usually order multiple half dozens at a time and deliver them to clients. If I pick them out for the boxes they are definitely perfect and are an amazing decadent treat and the boxed display is awesome! They also have cookies which are amazing but the baker seldom makes them. Go early as they sell out during the day to avoid disappointment!

We love these butter tarts so much that we ordered minis in lieu of a wedding cake. Customer service was great, ordering and pick up went smoothly and we can't wait to share our favourite treat with our loved ones. Raspberry is our favourite flavour (coconut is a close second).

Good afternoon. I am not posting this review to talk of bad service, poor quality product, runny or not runny tarts or a complaint about over priced goods. I am simply asking a few questions about change. Ill start with a short background. We have been going to sweet oven since it first opened. The butter tarts were runny, the pastry was light and thin. They really seemed like you were getting a homemade experience. The flavor was exemplary and didnt make the higher price you paid even be part of the equation. My only issue prior to yesterday was that the sweet oven never seemed to produce enough of a great product week after week to satisfy the want/need of their customers/consumer. In other words, time after time not having produced enough of their most popular products to meet demand. If that is some sort of marketing ploy, well so be it, but I dont understand that. But that is not what my review is about here today. I went there again yesterday after a couple of years of being away because of Covid. The usual issue of being sold out of a desired product still existed...kind of surprised me that they would not have corrected such an issue The questions I have...please respond 1. Does anyone feel the homemade taste and experience of the orignal butter tarts has changed? 2. Does anyone feel the amount of filling seems to be reduced ? 3. The pastry portion now seems processed like any other butter tart ? 4. The actual size of the butter tart has changed to be smaller? I think the pastry has been made differently and the thickness of the pastry and amount has been dramatically increased resulting in a completly different experience. I am talking about when the Sweet Oven first opened until now. Just looking for clarification of my experience. Thanks

If you like very oozy butter tarts, this place is definietly it! They're super tasty. Wish they had more of a variety besides that - very tasty butter tarts!

Finally got the chance to Sweet Oven! Amazing butter tarts if you want the ooey gooey centre! I usually don’t like the pastry but love this too! We will definitely be back!! Would love to try the raspberry next!!!

We served butter tarts from The Sweet Oven at our cottage wedding and they were a HUGE hit. People said they were literally the best butter tarts they'd ever had, and we had many guests asking where we'd gotten them from. I read on another review that you're thinking of opening a store down in The Beaches (my hood!) - well, we can't wait to have you down here!

Best butter tarts EVER, been buying them from here for years. They actually taste like they're made with butter! None of that nasty bland/lard flavor like the ones sold in grocery stores. Had the pleasure of trying their mini cheesecakes recently and WOW! Most delicious cheesecake I've had in a long time.

Never really a fan of butter tarts but after tasting them from the sweet oven they are at a different level the quality is amazing, the size, and they are absolutely amazing good job the sweet oven is amazing.....special order nutella
