5 Tim Hortons' goods that are a country treasure

I love to eat. I love to go to new places, try new restaurants and diverse foods. That was something that changed our game the first year that we arrived in Canada. As a multicultural country, we could try food from all over the world: Chinese, Greek, Vietnamese, Korean, etc.

I would love to talk about my experiences trying these fantastic foods, but today I will start with the one and only: Oh Canada!

Being Brazilian, we are constantly reminded of some country's inheritance as our cheese bread or Brazilian barbecue. Still, every time someone asks about food in Canada, we need to think about it. They do have poutine, which I am passionate about it, but what else?

A certain day, my husband was at work, and they come up with the question: So, what is the typical Canadian food?

And, almost as a chorus, every Canadian in the room answered: TIM HORTONS!

How could we not think about that? Of course! 

After this long introduction, I decided to share my five favourite things at Tim Hortons and why they are a Canadian treasure! 



Boston Cream


I started the list with a homage to my husband. He is the one that is crazy for Boston cream, and there is no order on Tims without a Boston Cream on it.  Boston cream is a soft donut with a cream filling that reminds me of our sonho/dream in Brazil, and it is dipped in chocolate fondant. It worth the try!


Donut: Dream Donut - Dulce de Leche


Talking about "Sonho/dream," those are in a unique collection they had last year. It was my favourite, and I hope that they come back.

The dream donut had 3 different flavours: strawberry, chocolate and dulce de leche (definitely my favourite). If you have a sweet tooth, you need to try it.


Cookies



Although Tim Hortons has a variation of cookies, that is nothing really extraordinary about them. That been said, I must say that they are my favourite combination when I order a double-double or any hot beverage. It is sooo good!


Cinnamon Bun 


Another lovely sweety that I got to know better here in Canada and I wanted to try from every different place. And the Tim Horton's one doesn't get behind. 


Bagel with cream cheese

I know the list is only with sweets, BUT I want to add this discover that is always a good try: bagel with cream cheese. 

They have many different options of bagels, and I can't decide, so I always go with "Everything." It can't go wrong. Right?


This is my list, and I know that everyone should have a different one. So, here is my invitation to reply to this posts with your top 5.

Now, excuse me, I need to order a medium double-double with a chocolate chunk, please.
