Sweet E's Pastries And Sweets

Great pastries and even better service. I love this little gem in our neighborhood.

Sweet E's is a bakery that offer full-sized cakes and tarts and miniature bite-sized treats. For my visit, I sampled their Mini Carrot Cake, 4 varieties of their mini tarts Banana Caramel Cream, Vanilla Strawberry Cheesecake, Coconut Cream, Milk Chocolate Hazelnut with Salted Caramel) and their Toffee Chew Cookie.<br/ <br/ Mini Carrot Cake $4.5): 5/5; The cake was tender and incredibly moist and had a good amount of spice. It was topped with a generous amount of delicious, tangy cream cheese frosting. This is probably one of the best carrot cakes that I've had; I actually prefer it over the one from Creme de la Crumb.<br/ <br/ Mini Tarts Banana Caramel Cream, Vanilla Strawberry Cheesecake, Coconut Cream, Milk Chocolate Hazelnut with Salted Caramel, all $2.5): 4.5/5; In general, I enjoyed all of the treats. My two favourites would be the Milk Chocolate Hazelnut with Salted Caramel which elicious smooth chocolate filling, topped with a lucious hazelnut cream and salted caramel), and the Banana Caramel Cream fragrant banana with bits of buttery, sweet toffee). I did find the Coconut Cream to be a tad bland and muted in flavour compared to the others.<br/ <br/ Toffee Chew Cookie $0.95): 4/5; Although the cookie didn't look like much, it was actually filled with an incredible amount of fruit and nuts, and best of all, buttery toffee. I did find it a bit dry, however.<br/ <br/ Overall, I'm very impressed by the offering from Sweet E's. My only negative is that I do find their mini tarts to be a tad pricey at $2.5. The quality of their products however is top notch and you really can't go wrong with picking any of their goods.

I am very fussy about my buttercream icing. The one here is perfect – – mostly butter with just a hint of sweetness. Have tried other things in this bakery, which i mostly find average, but the items with butter cream topping keep me stopping in when I'm in the neighborhood.

The carrot cake might be the best thing I've ever had. Had other desserts all were moist and delicious but weren't as awesome as that carrot cake!

Recommended by my friend who lives in the neighborhood. The carrot cake was phenomenal with cream cheese frosting. We also tried the chocolate flourless cake which was extraordinarily rich and dense. The pecan muffin was quite average.
