> Depending on where you go, expect different flavours. Cheese Boutique has a variety pack with flavours like cinnamon-raison, hazelnut, coconut and crème brûlée; while San Remo has toasted marshmallow and Brazil nut, for example.

I have a friend who makes the best butter tarts in Ontario. I know this because A: I also make very good buttertarts and B: I think I’ve tried every butter tart in Ontario that’s with trying.
It’s very convenient for me.

I went to a play in Stratford a few years ago and this diner advertised they had the “best” butter tarts but they were so gross, my friend and I agreed WAY too sweet, wrong texture, etc.
I am very tempted to try these though. Anyone know how they are sold at San Remo? Like as individual tarts?
