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!

In the Spirit of Fairness

This may only be our third summer as The Little Tart, but Bill and I have operated our business here for seven summers now and each year we have had to implement changes in order to operate our business effectively. We realize not all of our decisions will be met with approval, however there are only TWO of us working here. We give every consideration to every decision we make and when we make a decision is it because it is necessary for us to be able to continue. We do not have a staff. We do not have voluntary help. The Little Tart is a genuine mom and pop shop which means we do all the preparations, baking, dishes, clean up, accounting, marketing, and the occasional stock run all by ourselves. It's hard work, but it's the way we like it. 

Going into our third summer as The Little Tart we have noticed the popularity of our business has grown. We are thrilled! And we are busy. Very very busy and we are trying to meet the growing demand of our customers which leads us to our latest decision.

Due to the overwhelming volume of baking and in the spirit of fairness, The Little Tart will now operate on a first come first serve basis and we will no longer accept advance orders. We apologize for this decision, but it is a necessary one to maintain a sufficiently stocked store and to make sure all of our customers feel appreciated because we do greatly appreciate everyone who comes through out door. 

Thank you for understanding and your continued support.

Bring on the Summer!

HAPPY CANADA DAY!


The Canada Day long weekend is only days away and that means Bill and I about to get crazy busy here at The Little Tart, which also means no more blogging until September. But that doesn't mean you can't still follow us because now we're on Twitter!

This is good news because now with a quick tweet we can let you know of any sudden changes (ie: we've sold out and are closing early). We are trying our best to keep the doors open as long as possible this summer by trying to bake more, but there are only two of us and selling out is an unavoidable possibility.

So, if you don't want to make the long drive only to find out we're closed, follow us @the_little_tart on twitter and we'll do our best to keep you up to date.

See you there and hopefully we'll see you here!
