Amazing Vegan Pastries - Edit
All of their desserts and pastries I’ve tried so far are wonderful. Who doesn’t love a Butter pecan tart? But The Jalapeño Pull Aparts are at the top of my list.

Delicious vegan desserts - Edit
Although their physical location is temporarily closed, King of Tarts has a stand at the Old Strathcona Farmer's Market on Saturdays and at the 124 Grand Market on Sundays.
Read moreAll their treats are vegan! The Biscoff croissant ($6) was delicious - it was crispy on the outside but soft on the inside, covered and stuffed with Biscoff. I loved their Biscoff Nanaimo bar ($5.50) too, especially the THICK custard cream which had a great flavour and consistency.

Check out the bakery and cafe! - Edit
***March 2024 temporarily closed due to flooding** Has goods for sale at Strathcona Market or order online through the website***. So great to see someone move from a market stall to a bricks and mortar cafe! The cafe is on the back of a strip mall on Stony Plain Road that houses Revolution Cycle. It’s kind of at the back of the strip, facing the parking lot. The cafe itself is larger than I expected, with lots of tables and a nice gas fireplace. They serve many of their classics, such as filled croissants, and tarts, but are constantly experimenting with new items. Novembers offerings included a fantastic chocolate pie, tiger meringue cookies, and excellent Ube brownies. They serve drinks including coffee with both dairy milk and non dairy milk, and have recently added some savoury items like sandwiches, soup and chilli. They have a separate case of gluten free items. Definitely check them out!

Vegan baking that can compete with the best baking anywhere! - Edit
We discovered https://www.instagram.com/the_pastry_jeff/ this winter and have been regularly ordering vegan pastries, tarts, pies, danish and treats.
Read moreIt's simple..... IT IS ALL REALLY REALLY GOOD! Like REALLY REALLY GOOD! ANd Jeff has been so supportive and responsive to the vegan community over the past few months.
In general, if you were to ask me what if anything I miss in my diet after moving to a completely plant-based and vegan diet, it would be a laundry list of desserts. I have not tried anything from the King of Tarts that isn't either as good, if not better than what I would expect from a local bakery or restaurant offering fresh-baked pastries and desserts.
The tarts are cravable, and the croissants are fabulous, but our most recent discovery and soon to be regular order was Jeff's vegan lemon meringue pie. It's jaw-droppingly good!
If you haven't tried it....please do. Supporting great vegan friendly businesses at this time is so importnant.
Pros: Amazing vegan baking
Cons: Only deliverys once a week
