The Ultimate Dessert Tour at Westshore

 

Sweet Street may be over but we’ve still got treats on our mind. Did you know Westshore is home to some of the tastiest treats and most indulgent desserts you could want this summer? From rich fudgy brownies to cold and creamy milkshakes, create your own dessert dash and satisfy your sweet tooth today with these recommendations.

 

Stop #1: Start with a classic Orange Julius

Quench your thirst with this classic or try a sweet fruit smoothie for a refreshing treat you can take on the go. Whether you love citrusy flavours, mixed berries, or a strawberry banana duo, you won’t be disappointed.

 

Stop #2: Build the perfect box of chocolates at Purdys

There’s a reason the little purple box is iconic—it’s been a Canadian favourite for generations. From world famous hedgehogs and Sweet Georgia Browns to signature sea salt caramels and truffles, they’re the perfect treat for any chocoholic (including yourself).

 

Stop #3: Enjoy fresh-baked goodness at COBS Bread

Sweet, comforting carbs? Sign us up. COBS Bread offers a variety of sweet breads and baking like cinnamon buns, scones, and tarts. Pair with tea or coffee for the perfect pick-me-up-.

 

Stop #4: Try the famous Dirt Pie at Original Joe’s

If you’re looking a dessert that does it all, look no further. The Original Joe’s Dirt Pie combines chocolate and espresso flake ice cream with a rich fudge brownie and cookie crust. But it doesn’t stop there—it’s topped with caramel sauce, chocolate drizzle, and candied almonds. Share with a friend or indulge on your own (we won’t tell).

 

Stop #5: Spice things up at Tacofino

Ready to bring the heat? Tacofino’s Diablo Cookie is a rich chocolate cookie with cayenne pepper and fresh ginger. The result? A unique balance of sweet and spicy you won’t find anywhere else.

 

Stop #6: Save room for Romeo’s Ginger Caramel Spice Cake

Perhaps one of the most hidden gems on the tour is Romeo’s Ginger Caramel Spice Cake. Full of flavour and generously covered in caramel sauce, it’s equal parts yummy cake and warm hug on a plate.

 

Stop #7: Finish strong with a Big Wheel shake

No treat tour would be complete without a milkshake and lucky for you, Big Wheel Burger is mixing up hand-spun shakes for a cool, creamy way to end your dessert adventures.

 

Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or simply looking for an excuse to indulge, there’s no shortage of delicious options waiting to be discovered. The only challenge? Deciding where to start.
