Indulge in Sweet Home Bakery's legendary Napoleon Pastry — our most celebrated signature item that has been delighting Calgarians for over 50 years. Each Napoleon is meticulously crafted with multiple layers of delicate, flaky puff pastry, generously filled with luscious fresh whipped cream, and finished with a light dusting of icing sugar. The contrast between the crispy, buttery pastry layers and the silky smooth cream creates a heavenly texture that melts in your mouth. This classic European pastry has been perfected over decades in our Bowness bakery and remains the item customers drive across Calgary to experience.
At Sweet Home Bakery, we take pride in baking the best Napoleon Pastry in Calgary. Our Bowness bakery has been crafting baked goods from scratch for over 50 years, using the freshest ingredients and time-honoured recipes passed down through generations.
Every item is baked in-house daily with care and attention to detail, ensuring that every bite delivers the authentic, homestyle quality that has made Sweet Home Bakery a beloved cornerstone of the Bowness community since the 1960s.
What sets our Napoleon Pastry apart is our dedication to the traditional European method of pastry-making. We laminate our puff pastry dough by hand, creating hundreds of paper-thin layers that bake into impossibly light, flaky sheets. The fresh whipped cream is made daily — never from a can or pre-made — ensuring each Napoleon tastes as fresh as if it were made just for you. Over 50 years of perfecting this recipe means every bite is a testament to artisan baking at its finest.
"What they are known for is their NAPOLEON pastry. It is similar to a vanilla slice but with the fresh cream sensational. Absolutely incredible — worth the trip to Bowness!"
"We opted for the Napoleon this time around and were not disappointed. With layers of flaky puff pastry filled with fresh whipped cream and sprinkled with icing sugar it is a spectacular way to start a Saturday morning."
