We are located just 8km south of Haliburton off of Gelert Road (That's only a ten minute drive from downtown!) or follow the Rail Trail.
Here at The Little Tart all of our baked goods are created from scratch and made by hand fresh daily the way home baking should be.
We take pride in everything we do from our baking to our friendly and courteous customer service. All of our recipes are tried and retried until they are our absolute best.
Visit us at The Little Tart and fall in love at first bite!

Opening Easter Weekend!

 
In my eagerness to open, I had announced we will be opening Easter Weekend before I checked to see what weekend Easter fell on this year. Nonetheless, we will be opening Easter Weekend (next weekend) and if you are in or around the Haliburton Highlands we hope you'll pay us a visit!
 
Have a great weekend!

Cross Legged and Yoga Posed

It has been a busy week. The Little Tart may be a tiny store, but there's always lots to do to prepare to open.

Every year we try to update the names of our products or create new slogans and sayings for our product cards. I know I've said it before (it's good to know before you get here) that Bill and I have a - what's the word? - bizzare? strange? weird? (All of the above.) sense of humor and we have a lot of fun coming up with some of the things we put on our product cards.... I guess you could say it's another way we get "jazzed up" (That's right, I gots the lingo because I'm hip with the kids today.) and excited about opening.

Hey, we may be middle aged, but we are immature.

Needless to say, we don't put "everything" we come up with on our product cards and I wont post examples, but we are aware that we sometimes push the limits. Here's the thing - as much as we want you to enjoy our baked goods (and we really want you to enjoy our baked goods), whether we're a part of your cottage country traditions or you just happened upon us while passing through, we want your visit to our store (which is also our home) to be a memorable experience that lasts long after the treats are gone.

Having said all that, let me add, that while we were working and creating our new product cards, and we were both trying to outdo one another, I was cross-legged and yoga posed. (I'm claiming that phrase, and trust me, if you're middle aged and menopausal - it's a thing.) Word.

The countdown continues...

We're All About the Tarts!

The countdown is on here at The Little Tart as we get ready to launch our 2015 season. Bill is busy putting a fresh coat of paint on the store and I am going to tempt your taste buds.
 
We are only two weeks away from opening day and we hope you'll join us!

What's in a Name?

The Little Tart - Haliburton, Ontario 
When you're name is The Little Tart there's the double entendre and that, my friends, was not by accident.

Bill and I have often talked about what The Little Tart might look like and what you see is what we came up with. She's a little sweet treat "all that and a butter tart", but you wont be seeing her behind the counter (sorry fellas!).

It's always funny to see and hear a new customer's reaction when they walk into The Little Tart and find Bill behind the counter.

We're starting to look toward opening day which falls on Easter Weekend so please check back for future posts (I know I've neglected this blog a bit lately. I'll work on that.) and hours of operation.

We'll look forward to seeing you again as we kick off our 2015 season!
