AWESOME THING WE ATE #867: House-Made Ice Cream Sundaes From Cadeaux

by Michelle Sproule | The good folks over at Cadeaux Bakery on Powell St. (conveniently located around the corner from the No. 5 Orange) are now serving Vanilla Bean Ice Cream Sundaes. As you can see from the above shot, we tried the Strawberry and Caramel and they were both pretty awesome (as good as they look). The toppings will change according to what berries or fruits are in season, so we’re looking forward to trying blueberries and raspberries, then peach and cherry, then maybe even a blackberry toward the end of the summer. Caramel and fudge flavours are also available. $5 per and worth every penny.
