"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."

"When you hear about Trafiq, it's not about their almond croissants, that's for sure. The almond croissant here was more of a foldover and the saddest part was the upper shell of the croissant I bought fell off the rest of the croissant when I opened my takeout box. I had to place it back carefully to take my photo."

"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."

"Known for more than just their cheesecake, this popular pastry and cake shop is a dream for anyone with a sweet tooth. But their cheesecakes are, simply, to die for. A simple selection of four — New York, chocolate marble, mango and lemon — the recipe manages to be both sweet and savoury, with that kick of salty cheese shining through as it should."

"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.
