Best fall treats to get in Vancouver this season

Oct 1 2020, 4:22 pm

Fall is here, and so are the top-notch treats that come with it.

Cakes, tarts, chocolates, specialty pies, and more – there’s really no way to move through the season without trying at least a few of the special seasonal creations Vancouver’s bakeries, cafes, and patisseries have put together for us.

Use this list as a must eat scavenger hunt and be sure to try all these offerings before they are gone, as they won’t be around for long.

Here are the best fall treats to get in and around Vancouver this season.
