How Sweet It Is

Our tastebuds are tingling perusing the locally produced goodies lining the shelves at the newly opened Sweetgrass Market—Calgary’s first year round, seven-days-a-week, metro marketplace. Here’s a Sweet guide to some of the tastiest treats being offered:
Sweet Goodness: Apple Guavas ($2.50 each) from More Than Mangos are sweet with an edible rind that has five times the vitamin C of an orange.
Sweet Spice: A Touch of India’s butter chicken ($14 for 1 litre) and the Thai green curry with coconut rice ($10 for ½ litre) from The Headless Chef—our kind of take-out.
Sweet Fun: A candy bra ($14.99) from The Candy Kid is the perfect gift for next week’s staggette.
Sweet Style: Our love for glass beads and silver find perfect harmony in the jewellery at Burnt Glass Studio (earrings start at $50).
Sweet Snack: Valta Bison Farm’s bison garlic ring ($4.95) paired with some seven year-old XXX aged Cheddar from Springbank Cheese ($9.43 per 300 grams).
Sweet morning: Red Barn Bread Company’s sticky cinnamon buns (2 for $5).
Sweet anticipation: The opening of Rouge Market, a take-home version of our favourite Inglewood restaurant.
