Best deserts ever on the west end

16 September 2019

After our delicious meal after Peaked Pies, we decided we wanted desserts so we walked northbound to a dessert restaurant called True Confections. This dessert restaurant is known to create the largest selections of “made from scratch” desserts in Canada, This restaurant was founded in 1986 as the first desserts restaurant in Vancouver, BC. This restaurant ironically is the same age as me as I was born in the year of 1986. As we walked in, there was a large variety of cakes that was displayed and both my significant other and myself were eyeing on their red velvet cake. As we were greeted and sat down by the host / server we had a couple of minutes to look over their menu and our host / server approached us and we decided to order a slice of red velvet cake to share. First bite on the cake, the cake was moist and I love the cream cheese frosting it was very delicious. Overall, I rate this dessert restaurant a 5 stars out of 5 stars. This restaurant have been around for about 33 years in Vancouver, BC. They are deemed to have a largest freshest desserts in Vancouver, BC for quite sometime. I definitely support a local restaurateur in the long run, as I appreciate local businesses bringing good food to our city. foodieyvrjasmine604.wordpress.com/2019/04/07/peaked-pies-australian-bakery-cafe-visited-on-april-7-2019/ Phone: 604-682-1292 Address: 866 Denman Street Vancouver, BC V6G 2L8 More...

I must begin by saying I have never had my dessert packed to go before! Amazingly decadent cakes, so so so tasty, I’m still dreaming of it. Huge slices and very warm staff. Told the person behind the counter, in conversation, that it was my friend’s birthday and he added a little candle to her pie. What a sweet gesture! More...

Their multi layered chocolate cake is to kill for! Indulgence in chocolate. A slim slice looks small but the creamy mousse and dark chocolate cake is hard to finish on your own!

I love chocolate cakes! There are so many good cake places in Vancouver. This time my friend and I went to True Confections on Denman Street in Downtown. I love how thick and heavy their chocolate cakes are. Why can't bakeries in Hong Kong make moist heavy chocolate cakes? It seems I can only find those light chiffon chocolate cake in Hong Kong and those are not good. Not very chocolatie. ...Read full post on chichicho.blogspot.com More...

I love chocolate cake. Nothing much to say about this cake other than it's super sweet and moist. Super chocolatie! Just the way I like my chocolate cake. Actually, I like to have my cake without the cream part. If only they would make a cake that's just chocolate cake! Picture taken with my iPhone 5.

After a long Sunday Beach walk I found „true Confections“ before taking the Bus from West Broadway: This tarts and cakes and trifles in the cooling shelf where amazing! The decision where really hard which one to order... and I choosed the best one! Strawberry tarte, so tasty, light and in a good size... delicious and every cent worthy!!! I definitely have to come back and taste more of this wide selection of real true confection! Congratulation!!! There are two Caffees: one on 866 Denman St. and one on 3701 West Broadway Don’t miss it when you’re visiting Vancouver! More...

Craving for something sweet, or need a date night idea? This dainty café is just a few blocks away from English Bay .. honestly, the only bad thing I can say is that they need more locations! It's worth the trip for the abundant yummy cakes and desserts they have. My personal favorite (and a must-try) would be the Devil's Food cake! Layers of moist chocolate cake and smooth, silky chocolate mousse enrobed in marshmallow frosting .. it's pure temptation in a slice. It's soo good that I have to always order another one to go! Grab a london fog or vanilla latte and you will be in heaven. Their cheesecakes are quite creamy, and there are tons of variations and toppings that you can have! More...

Is anyone else surprised that this appears to be the only dedicated dessert place around downtown that's opened passed 8pm on a weekend? That fact doesn't take anything away from the cakes, cheesecakes and trifles. Reasonable prices at $7-10 each. More...

Hazelnut dark chocolate mousse is to die for! Light and fluffy. Mmm. Flourless cakes melt easily in the mouth and so does chocolate mousse. I decided to make my own flourless cake and chocolate mousse, Taste pretty good too. I guess any chocolate mousse paired with flourless cake done right is tasty. I've been to True Confections three times and had the Hazelnut dark chocolate mousse twice and the Napoleon. The Napoleon isn't very good. More...

Mouth watering feast for the eyes as soon as you walk in. Very cool relaxed vibe, I suggest checking this place out with someone you want to share with. Often busy, somewhat crowded but an intimate feeling once seated. Enjoy an assortment of beverages and as far as dessert choices...let your taste buds guide you. Always serving delicious favourites and seasonal treats. Anything chocolate...you won't be disappointed. An autumn staple, got to have the pumpkin pie cream cheese. Friendly service and you never wait long for your very own slice. @TrueConfexions Enjoy! More...

How can we forget about the most important meal of the day? Not breakfast, we mean dessert. If you're a fan of cheesecake and live in Vancouver, we definitely recommend checking out True Confections. They've been making the best cakes in Vancouver since 1989. The best part is they're open late! If you ever need some comfort food at 11pm, they have you covered!! vancitydives.com More...

I don't understand the hype.. My friend recommended this place, but I really don't understand the hype. The cakes do not taste homemade. .. They're yummy, but definitely not homemade. The service is quite normal. The decor... I can't really judge cause it is usually very dark. The prices, they're okay, about $6-$8 per slice. I give this place 3.5/5 stars. "B-" because its not extraordinary, but still good! Perks being its open till late night. More...

Best dessert place in town. I am a dessert fanatic and I think I may have tried 20+ recommended dessert places in the Vancouver area. True Confections is the only place that does simple VERY well. There are no weird experimental desserts here, most are classic and made in a very old fashioned method. I have tried about half the cakes on the menu (chocolate ganache orange is my favourite), banana cream pies (regular and chocolate) choc mousse and hazelnut mousse, and many of the teas & milkshakes. This is a special occasion place. At $7-8 per item you are still paying less than most restaurant freezer burned desserts, but more than day old stale coffee shop items. You get what you pay for, which is real classic ingredients and I am pretty sure they use lard instead of shortening in their desserts judging from the flakiness of the crusts. I don't agree at all that the portion sizes are small as some have mentioned here, I have brought 200+ pound male Viking friends who haven't been able to finish their desserts. I can't ever finish all in one sitting and very few people I know have. My older relatives who have come here tell me that this is what desserts used to taste like in grandma's kitchen 40+ years ago, and I am pretty sure that is the best compliment anyone can give regarding a dessert place! Highly recommending the banana cream pies, the vanilla tea, and the milkshakes (and any seasonal items). More...
