Decadent Desserts

Like others who have bought cakes here, they are VERY overpriced and likely kept in the freezer for untold lengths of time, before they are purchased.
What bothers me, is that the owner is so greedy – money and price is everything. I have bought several cakes from her and THEY ARE VERY EXPENSIVE, plus I have referred several of my friends here, who have also purchased many cakes.
But today when I picked up a birthday cake for my husband she wanted to charge me an extra FIVE DOLLARS to write «Happy Birthday on a «chocolate medallion.»
I was so disappointed, actually I was quite disgusted.
It is ALL about the money, not about caring, appreciative service.
Last cake I buy from her.

We bought a cake for BD party of one of our friends from here and it was fantastic. The taste was really good, not too sweet, perfect design. Also got few of the slices they had up front and they also were fresh and tasting really good. I would definitely go back and recommend.

This is THE shop for chocolate lovers out there. How many chocolate cakes have you been disappointed by??? Well DD will for sure not be in that list. The owner knows exactly how to satisfy that will-​die-​without-​chocolate craving. I have the worst sweet tooth, I can never get enough of chocolate. But DD is that one shop where I can eat just one slice of something and actually feel satisfied.
I have been coming here for years and have never left disappointed. My favourite treats are the chocolate obsession cake, callebaut brownies and the half dipped choc chip cookies. The coconut cake is great for non-​choc lovers. Its a tradition now in my family to get birthday cakes from here. Everyone gets so excited!
DD IS expensive. But I think that’s a great thing. Otherwise I would definitely be overweight and diabetic!

a few deserts. only 2 display cases so limited selection. Cakes are the same as everywhere but a bit more pricey for the MEC crowd.

Over priced. What a disappointment after paying 70 $. Your better off going to Tim Hortons and getting a donut. I bought the coconut cake and I do not recommend it to anyone. It was very dry. Never again!

Hugely disappointed by the $ 60 cake I purchased from Decadent Desserts for my Nana’s 82^nd birthday.
I ordered a lemon raspberry cake and I simply cannot describe how dry the cake layers were. What’s worse is that the cake was actually dry from being STALE, not over baked. An incredible disappointment for such an expensive cake and special occasion.
I would not recommend this bakery based on
1. Over priced
2. Lack of quality (ie: stale cake)
3. Clearly not a consistent offering based on the mix of good and bad reviews.
(Which is not worth the risk for the money you pay). I was obviously a victim of the good reviews and got the short end of the stick.

Decadent Desserts made our wedding cake in 2009. It was amazing! We had 3 tiers — top was a moist delicious carrot cake, middle layer was a vanilla cake with raspberry filling, and the bottom layer was chocolate with a chocolate gauche filling. Not only was in devoured by our guests but it was beautiful and simple just as we requested. I have posted a picture.

Wow, I am absolutely taken aback by these reviews, and clearly I ordered the wrong things, which were all expensive. The staff was extremely friendly, but the small piece of cheesecake I ordered was largely tasteless and totally crumbly. I also ordered a lemon square, which was very lemony, but I found the crust to be a little bit too savory.
I may go back and try some of the other suggestions, but given the cost, this is highly unlikely.

Brownies that are out of this world! I always buy a full slab. I want my birthday cake from Pam’s kitchen! Yummmmmm

Have the Seymour! I’m not sure I can say anything else after such a sinfully delicious experience!
You know you’re going to experience quality when you walk in to such an amazing smell in a dessert place! I asked for a suggestion and it was recommended that I have the Seymour since I can’t get it anywhere else!
It was chocolatey and nutty and sinful. Definitely stop in and check them out if you’re in the area… especially if you need a cake or desserts for an event!!!

All I can really say is… YUM!!!

It’s pricey… but my god it’s worth it. The cakes are… well… DECADENT. I’ve tried quite a few over the years, and I bring these cakes in for special occasions only as a personal rule, because if I was eating these under normal regular situations, I probably would be on the floor most days twitching from diabetic shock.
Of especial note to me, the Raspberry WHite Chocolate and the Chocolate Overload. If you weren’t a diabetic previously, you will get precariously close to being one. To put it quite simply, they are to die for.
They normally only make a small number for walk in sale, but also a number of cookies and other goodies (though a limited selection as their bread and butter seems to be their cake to order selection). If you reaaaaally want any particular cake, you’ll need to give them about 48 hours or so warning, and then… ENJOY.
PS: They’re not only rich, but they’re dense in the yummiest form of the word. It’s not a cake for sissies and by god it’s way superior than store bought. Store bought isn’t even in the same scale as these cakes. Hell, barely the same planet!

It’s a small bakery. There is no coffee and just a single table, but none of that matters. I had a this thing called Dark ChocolateSeymours, it had pecans and was dipped in dark chocolate. Awesome. It came straight down from the heaven. The cakes looked really yummy too. There were a lot other goodies, I wanted to try, but I ran out of calories for the day.

I used to work quite close to Decadent Desserts but never went in. Then, in 2010, I happened to be in the neighbourhood on my birthday and wandered in on a whim. What I found there has changed my view of desserts entirely.
I’ve only tried a few different things at Decadent — namely their cupcakes, shortbread cookies and the lemon slice — and each is better than the last. This is the place to go for a real, tart and tasty lemon slice that’s flaky, delicious and not too sweet.
I’m positively in love with their Italian buttercream cupcakes. I celebrated my birthday with one and instantly decided to make it a birthday tradition. Crave cupcakes are tasty, but those at Decadent Desserts are simply divine.
They’re conveniently located next to one of my favorite Calgary spots — The Holy Grill — so stopping in for a truly amazing lunch and dessert couldn’t be easier.

I don’t know why it took me three years to step into this bakery? Maybe unconsciously I know how good this place is and it will be bad for me???
If it was not for my coworker, I guess I still wouldn’t/haven’t gone into this place and tried their cakes. (yes plural, cakesssssssssss).
Other than Bliss cupcakes, Decadent’s cupcakes are my favorite! I actually feel like I was cheating on my Bliss cupcakes when I was eating the Decadent cupcakes. Savory! Yummy! Delicious!

MMMM MMMMM MMMMM.
I’ve fallen head over heels in love with this place. It’s hard not to — I mean, EVERYTHING they make makes me happy down to the core. How can anything compete with that??? Sorry fellows… DD’s got this one.
Dinah G. has done a fantastic job of providing a recap of just some of the amazingness that DD offers its clients.
I will tell you that their cookies and cakes leave me absolutely speechless… which is a feat in itself.
All you need to know is this: Decadent Desserts is a slice of heaven, right here in our city. It’s time you had a taste.

OMG
This is the only expression that comes to mind when visiting this shop, this is one of the most elegant and classy bakeries that I have been to in the city. The cake showcase was slim pickings today, I guess they have had a mad rush for their cakes for Christmas and I can understand why. The best way to describe DD is to give a rundown of what they have.

Pies and Tarts: Callebaut Chocolate Cream Pie, Chocolate Cream Pie, Pecan Pie, Strawberry Rhubarb Pie, Very Berry Pie, Apple Pie, Frangipane Fruit Tart, Lemon Meringue Pie, Lemon Tart, and Chocolate Silk Pie.

All desserts made from scratch, I believe I don’t need to say more.

wow. if you need a birthday cake. and would like something better than your average Safeway cake. trek down to 10^th ave.
I think they are about $ 50. serves PLENTY of people (10inch cocunut cake. mmmmmmmm so delicious I HAD to try it!!). we had a party of 20+ people and they say it serves 15. but the cake is so delicious and rich you can easily serve more people. Service is quick… just call a few days ahead to place your order.
