Beautiful and comfortable little spot. Amazing food and service! Mari and the rest of the gang are A++
I love Trafalgar's menu - the set menu is great value for money. My favourite desserts are the passion fruit flan and triple chocolate mousse. The service is excellent and I love that it's right in my neighbourhood. I always recommend these businesses to friends!
Fantastic selection of tasty cakes. Polite & friendly staff
Always excellent quality of cakes, pastries and bread. Quick courteous service.
Best almond croissant ever! Saint Honore is tasty. Service is wonderful!
Great coffee delicious pastries and awesome service. Love it
I have been coming here for years and have never left unhappy...tipsy and full but never unhappy!
Doces e salgados maravilhosos. Ótimo atendimento. Recomendo a todos
Sweet Obsession has a wide variety of sweets and cakes that will satisfy any sweet tooth.
It's a cute spot to meet for coffee and amazing dessert, pick up the perfect cake for a birthday, or get one of their many individual sizes to take home.
Seating is tight - the vibe is more on the clean, modern side. Parking is fairly easy to find.
came here after a good dinner in green leaf sushi, and well desert, i'm not a big fan of desert, came here so that can sit down and chat, the place is quite when i entered but then after an hour it was packed, i guess it's because everyone after dinner came here afterward as well. ordered a couple items in here, creme brulee, banana cake, and can't remember the last sweet item at the moment, but everything was good, price wise it i thought is average, i'm not big on sweet desert, but definitely this place is atleast decent, my friend said the banana cake is better usually. expectation met, that all that matters :D
ps update #2 (2017). i still haven't tried the legendary quiche that my friend have mentioned.
One of my favourite Vancouver bakeries!
Funny how I discovered this place. Was looking for a tiramisu cake for a friend's birthday. Googled "best tiramisu in Vancouver" and it came up with two places. I called the other bakery first because it was close to where I worked and would've been convenient for me to pick up. I called that bakery (to make sure they had the cake available) and was hung up on... twice.
Eventually led me to Sweet Obsession... and looks like it was meant to be! Their tiramisu was amazing. I've been addicted since!
Sweet Obsession is one of our favourite dessert spots in the city. We've been here a couple of times and have tried the chocolate ganache, the passionfruit flan, the lemon orange flan with blueberry, and the black and white mousse. The passionfruit flan is our favourite by far, a must try! For drinks, the americano is pretty standard, and the hot chocolate is on the sweeter side, but not bad.
This place has a large selection of desserts so there should be something for everybody. Prices are decent and the quality is better than most. We will be back!
I definitely love this little Cafe. Once i entered it, lovely cakes drew all my attention and it's hard to make your decision which one to eat. I wanna try all of it. And there's no doubt about the any aspects of cakes. However, the bad thing is that it's always crowded and hard to get a ideal space if you go there with a few friends and want to sit together. (Ps, the tea i ordered tasted weird)
Sweet Obsessions has been on my list of dessert cafes to visit for a long time but I never really go to that area (16th and MacDonald Street) and it’s not that convenient to bus there either. Actually that area just reminds me of when I had to take my road test because ICBC is nearby. When my friend said she felt like eating cake for dessert, I suggested this place and it did not disappoint.
This place deserves alot more praise. Right in the heart of a residential area this little gem is a hidden secret in the West end. They have really I mean really good desserts here. I came here on valentines day to get my valentine her cake.
They had one called the bleeding heart. It's in the shape of a small heart and when you cut into it, it bleeds a jelly filling. That was so cool lol. I should've played the keep bleeding love song LOL.
I also suggest you try the creme brule here... Really gooooood....and there's a heated patio outside for you dog owners like me. They'll be happy to bring you a bowl of water.
• hidden gem, this place is always busy
• limited seating, they probably have only 4 tables inside and 2 tables at the patio which no one uses during the winter
• wide selection of decadent cakes and pastries
• Raspberry cheesecake has its perfect sweetness and texture
• Fairly priced for its flavour and artistic look
• they also have jams, cookies, biscotti, cinnamon buns (yum! This goes really fast!)
Sweet obsession is always on the top of my craving list. I was not feeling well on the Saturday night and my sugar craving was pretty intense. Hubby drove to Sweet obsession and got me cheesecakes to go! YAYYY! Their cheesecakes were so good flavors but not overwhelming. Mango flavor is my all time favorite.
Been there late in the night. It was cold and dark outside, but this small store feels like home. One thing to notice is that they can take orders by table. So if you wanna dine in then find yourself a table first then they will bring you the menu. We choose the Caramel Walnut Mousse and the White Chocolate Raspberry Mousse, but then notice there's more choices on the table menu! Alright we must go back to sample all the goods there. The White chocolate mousse is just a typical dessert, a bit too sweet for us and lack of the fruit flavour. I think the other berry mousse might has a better fruit taste. Highly recommend the caramel walnut mousse! The texture is light but creamy, and the flavour is a combination of coffee and walnuts, and a bit bitter because of the caramel. It has a perfect level of sweetness and even the biscuit bottom part is so delicious. Love it.
A hidden gem! I had their Chilled Caramelized banana crepe and I'm usually not a crepe person but saw this on my instagram and just had to try it. It's not a typical crepe where you'd have your fillings inside and the crepe folded into a flat triangular shape on your plate. This was a 3 dimensional crepe filled with cream and bananas. It was topped off with some chocolate cream, a chocolate twirl and half a sphere of chocolate meringue with a crisp slice of banana. It doesn't just tastes great but it looks pretty. This place is small and it was packed. Luckily we didn't have to stand in line and wait for a seat. They alway sell whole cakes to go and other eats such as cookies, granola, and creme brulee. They also serve a variety of coffee, teas, smoothies and juices to pair with your dessert. My friend had the raspberry lime flan. Oh My God! That was the best flan I've ever eaten in my entire life. It was smooth and the balance of sweet and sour was so on the point that I could not describe. Would definitely go back for more of their desserts or to get a cake to go because it's so good I want to share with everyone else.
Sweet Obsession cakes and pastries taste super exquisite, it even gave me a sweet obsession! Once in a while they have a cool mountain of choux cream puffs that look really delicious, my personal favourite cake is the black and white mousse cake. Each pastry has its own amount of good bitterness and flavour.
I had the neopolitan slice and wife had the chocolate hazelnut zuccotto. Pretty good, sweetness wasn't over powering for either dessert. The chocolate cake of the neopolitan very airy but flavorful. Vanilla buttercream seemed a little weak in terms of fragrance.
I am no stranger to Sweet Obsession. I’ve been going since my mid-teens with friends and family. I adore their cakes–especially the triple berry mousse cake and the raspberry lime flan. I like other sweets on the menu, but I always fall back on one of those two, so strong is my obsession with them.
After my awesome meal at Au Comptoir the other day - I was craving some dessert!! Okay, okay, I had already eaten a lemon tart from Au Comptoir, but I still wasn't satisfied!! ;). So what's a girl to do? Ride the bus in search of dessert of course!! So after strolling around Kits and eventually settled on Sweet Obsession ~ a cute little patisserie in the residential area of Kits!!
Very welcoming staff. Nice little place with a great variety of cakes to share with friends. One of my favourites: chocolate hazelnut zuccotto.
Hm.. Sugar craving can be very intense and scary. I needed some real good desserts to satisfy my sweet tooth! Sweet Obsession came to my mind immediately. How can I miss this adorable and lovely café OMG! my eyes cannot leave the display shelves... More Pastries! My to-go desserts! Seasonal dessert: Spring Time Surprise...
Coffee. Chicken & Brie Panini with cranberry chutney
Welcoming, helpful, informed, friendly service with a genuine smile. awesome desserts and great decor. i love this place.
It is ok. Too expensive for what you get and compare to other bakeries. Nothing too special about it
Great Americano coffee, and one of my favourite ham and cheese sandwiches around. Staff are friendly. Go for a relaxed coffee and pastry! And birthday cake :).
Had to order out because it was quite busy, but great service and totally delicious desserts. The caramel tart had sea salt and was very rich, and the hazelnut chocolate cake has a very nutty and gravelly consistency. Cheesecake can't be beat!
Tiramisu cake is my favourite though almost everything is great. Nice place to do coffee and dessert in the small cafe area.
Amazing Cakes. Triple Chocolate Mousse... the best cake in the whole world. White Chocolate Raspberry is a close second! the warm Toffee cake is heavenly as well...
This is where you buy your birthday or special occassion cake on the West side-period. not too sweet, real ingredients that melt in your mouth. don't be fooled by desserts at Meinhardts when grocery shopping. better to travel a few blocks and get something you can eat!
Every Day Is A Food Day
+4.5
If you're a dessert lover, then you must check this place out!
I only had one bite of this dish, but it was DELICIOUS!!I was almost upset at the fact that I didn't order this :p
This store front is tucked away on a strip plaza and it’s a small but intimate with tons of sweets in the store! I love stores like this, so I was extremely content the moment we stepped foot into this cafe! The display cases were full of cakes even though it was becoming late in the day, and there was still a lot of people in and out of the cafe!
Marv was a bit too enthused to write up this one, so here's his take on it! I have never been inside this cake shop before but I have driven past this place numerous times. You see, I'm not a fan of sweets in general, but Colleen wanted to have a quick taste and off we went. I do have a cake shop I frequent in Kerrisdale but I like exploring new places. Sweet Obsession Cakes & Pastries 2611 W 16th Ave, Vancouver BC Tel#: (604) 739-0555 Upon entering the shop I was immediately drawn to the counter of deliciously looking cakes. No lie, I made a right turn into it. They are all very well made cakes and the selection was quite extensive. I had no idea which to try. Felt like I was a kid in a candy store After we sat ourselves, we were given a menu and decided to get a
I love Cake and if you love cake too, you should definitely stop by Sweet Obsessions sometime in your life.
Sweet Obsession is more suitable for one-on-one, intimate meetup with your bestie. Each dessert item is priced ranging from $5.75 to $6.50. It also sells savoury items for sale too. I think I need to go back again to finish sampling its entire dessert menu!!
Sweet Obsession Cakes & Pastries is nestled right next to Trafalgar's Bistro on West 16th & Trafalgar - located in Kitsilano/Arbutus Ridge. They offer an exquisite selection of daily, fresh-baked desserts: cakes, cookies, pastries, tortes, tarts, flans, etc. If you are to visit, you must order the...
Life is uncertain. Eat dessert first.
This dessert shop is located in a somewhat quite neigborhood. They do have a few patio seats, with mostly in door tables. If you choose to dine in, they will bring you menu. However I do suggest go in the store, because all their desserts are on display.
