A youthful love of fine desserts became the obsession that spurred pastry chef Lorne Tyczenski to open Sweet Obsession with partner Stephen Greenham in 1993. Together the pair has developed a loyal following for their ultra-decadent, richly flavoured cakes, tarts, flans and pastries.

Sweet Obsession offers a retail counter for take-home confections and a 16-seat cafe, where the day’s fresh-baked desserts can be enjoyed over a caffe latte, espresso or herbal, green and black teas.

Or for elegant, adventurous and affordable multi-course menus for daytime and dinner, visit partner restaurant Trafalgars Bistro, just two doors down at 2603 West 16th Avenue.
