The Best Bakeries in Halifax, Nova Scotia
"Long-time baker Tony Odell experienced an epiphany when, prompted by concerns about gluten intolerance, he baked a gluten-free pound cake for his family – and “no one could tell the difference.” Odell and his team create the usual assortment of bakery items (cakes, squares, cookies), but also whole pies, which aren’t offered in many bakeries. Odell’s customers have their pick of gluten-free coconut cream, pumpkin, blueberry, chocolate cream, pecan, apple and banana cream pies."

Taste tantalizing ice cream at these Halifax shops | YP Smart Lists
"Dive into Halifax's deepest hipster scene with Humani-T, a self-described community hub and "portal to building a better society." Don't be surprised at the overwhelming amount of hemp or dreadlocks, nor the fact that both this and their North End location close for Baha'i holidays – their handmade gelato is very, very good. Their strict mandate to use exclusively local ingredients and no artificial flavours makes their unique offerings, such as chai masala or Persian rose, all the more alluring."

The Evolution of Halifax Ice Cream
"A post shared by Humani-T Cafe (@humani_tcafe) on May 23, 2018 at 1:56pm PDT. Humani-T Café gained control of the gelato market in North End Halifax with a mouth-watering selection of unique gelato flavours, hand-crafted from scratch, with a focus on vegan options. Its most popular flavour is Mini-egg gelato, but coffee lovers will want to try an affogato – the café’s Espresso 1749 blend poured over your favourite gelato."
