Indulge in Autumn Treats in Vancouver
The world's first pumpkin spice lattes were brewed in Vancouver in 2003 and our city has been pumpkin spice crazy ever since. Taste your way around town, discovering new bakeries, restaurants, and cafes serving up delectable autumn treats.
Pecan Pumpkin Loaf at To Live For
The seasonal pecan pumpkin loaf is back for fall at Erin Ireland's East Vancouver vegan bakery, To Live For. Their cafe also offers vegan pumpkin spiced lattes made with real pumpkin, coconut cream, brown sugar, and spices.
