Best Cake Places in Coquitlam

"A warm and roomy corner on Vancouver’s bustling Main Street, Trafiq Bakery & Cafe makes for a perfect spot to drop by for a coffee break, breakfast or lunch… or to be straightforward, their insanely good Salted Caramel Cake and Matcha Tart. Trafiq specializes in their own variety of house-made buttery croissants, pastries, sandwiches and bread, but it’s the above two that are breaking the ceiling. If a single salted caramel cake is not enough for you, they even cater tiered cakes (6” cake on top of a 10” one)."

"Not only does Trafiq create the most charmingly aesthetic cakes, but they have flavours so fulfilling you’ll find yourself coming back every week to try out a new one!. With a friendly, responsive staff and each cake layer oozing with taste, Mount Pleasant’s Trafiq is one of our favourite places to get our baked goodies from."

"A post shared by Alana Yee (@yvreats) on Feb 25, 2018 at 8:35pm PST. Trafiq’s multi-layered cakes are loved by Vancouverites and they come in a variety of flavours. Try their signature salted caramel, drizzled with homemade caramel sauc,e or the carrot cake, which is iced with a decadent cream cheese frosting."

"Known for their cheesecake, this 18-year old Kitsilano bakery uses real ingredients (no artificial stabilizers, colours or flavours) that are sourced locally when possible. Sweet Obsession is essentially zero waste with an on-site composter. Customization of cakes, which range from 10” to 16”, is quite simple (extra fruit, different masking), but a personalized message can be added at no charge."

"Seriously, we cannot be expected to pick just one–not when the selections include Hedgehog (hazelnut and chocolate with Frangelico), Chocolate Obsession (chocolate truffle), Carrot cake with roasted hazelnuts, or Roasted Coconut Chiffon…just to name a few. Address: 2611 West 16th Avenue, Vancouver. Instagram: @trafalgars_sweetobsession"

"Venturing out to the west side of Vancouver, this almond croissant was the cheapest non-Starbucks variant, but it came at a price. Rise was probably the best point of this croissant with just a few gaps in layering. Look closely though, and notice the lack of almond paste either on top or within the croissant."

"Ganache, as the name suggests, offers a little bit of Parisian elegance in the heart of Yaletown. Visit this talented team of artisans to enjoy eye-catching desserts that are pretty enough to provide a wow factor, and delicious enough to keep you coming back. Individual strawberry and rhubarb cheesecakes taste like a fresh summer’s day; these enchanting edibles feature an almond biscotti base, a tart strawberry balsamic glaze and a white chocolate garnish."

"Coco Exotique, Passion et Chocolat, Cassis et Matcha are three of the 24 cake types offered at Yaletown’s preeminent French patisserie, run by veteran pastry chef Peter Fong. Looking for something Fancy?. Ganache hand-makes custom, handcrafted bonbons, chocolate sculpture centerpieces and unique personalized cake decorations, like Louis Vuitton or Nike shoes (pictured), with quality ingredients like Cacao Barry Chocolate."

"Uniquely designed and handcrafted by a team of pastry chefs, the menu at Ganache is inspired by the seasons and changes regularly. The one consistent theme at Ganache is French technique with subtle Asian influences running throughout each of their incredible delicious pastries."

"Everyone talks about the double bake from Thomas Haas, but what if I told you there was a cheaper double bake option, and at least in a case-by-case comparison in my analysis, that came from a newer entrant in the Vancouver almond croissant scene?. While the almond paste was a little on the short side, it feels like the intention here was to showcase the mastery in flakiness and overall croissant mastery. The folds here were immaculate to say the least and the rise was off the charts relative to everything else on this list."

"We are an independent bakery specializing in naturally leavened sourdough bread and French inspired pastries. We believe in making everything from scratch, with fresh, high quality ingredients. All of our breads are made with whole grains and baked"

"Ladurée is a famous French bakery that’s all about their macarons. Their Vancouver shop was the first location in Canada, and you can find all kinds of delicious treats and drinks. The macarons are the perfect mix of slightly crunchy on the outside and decadently soft on the inside, and they’re so good."

"Vancouver was lucky enough to be the first Canadian home of Ladurée back in 2016. While the French sweet shop was best known for their macarons, they have since introduced a line of perfectly Parisian cakes and pastries that are so dainty and so cute that you’ll almost question devouring them (almost)."

"Our readers turned us on to the awesomeness that are Breka’s freshly made doughnuts. With Boston Cream and Apple Fritters available 24-hours a day, it should definitely be on you go-to list. Address: Four Vancouver locations (Fraser, Bute, Davie, and 4th Ave); check website for details"

"Breka is more than a tourist spot and a late-night study option for university students. For 15 years now, the bakery has been serving great donuts (starting at $1.50) alongside a whole bunch of other reasonably priced items. But, this is a donut list, and they deserve a spot on here."

"We're offering 2 options: pick-up in store at all 5 locations, or you can order from UberEats and get free delivery at this time."

"The Marble Slab Creamery offers more than 50 flavours of ice cream and 20 mixins – fruits, nuts, candies, chocolates and cookies. There are also milkshakes, smoothies and more. Located in the Lower Lonsdale neighbourhood close to the Seabus, the Pinnacle Hotel at the Pier, Lonsdale Quay and the Lonsdale Quay Hotel."

"The Lion’s Gate Bridge is Vancouver’s most iconic bridge, and the best views of it are from Stanley Park. See it from the Prospect Point Lookout or walk a little bit down Stanley Park Drive to see it straight on like in the photo above!. Fun fact: the Guinness family (yes, the Irish brewing company) built the bridge in 1938!"

"There are multiple ways to get amazing views of Lions Gate Bridge in Vancouver. The Lions Gate Bridge frames the mountain peaks of The Lions in the distance and you’ll find stone lions “protecting” the entrance to the bridge. The Lions Gate Bridge can be viewed from the Sea Wall or from Prospect Point"

"We couldn’t write a list of the best donuts in Vancouver without including this absolute titan. We’re not going to sit here and say it’s off the charts, flavour-wise. But, there’s no denying that Duffin’s is a magical place in Vancouver, has a tremendous range of donuts to choose from, and the best value in the city by far."

"A post shared by Duffins Donuts (@duffins_donuts) on Jul 4, 2017 at 8:45am PDT. A hidden Vancouver gem, Duffin’s is open 24 hours a day and has an enticing menu full of cheap eats. Their subs sell for less than $5, they have an all-day breakfast for $4.75, and of course, fresh doughnuts."

"Their 30-year run of fresh baked and prepared in-house donuts has made them a Vancouver staple. They offer 50 varieties and also serve fried chicken, Chinese food, and torta subs and are open 24 hours a day. What more could you ask of donut shop?"
