We had a lot of fun chatting the other day with the radio guys from Evolution 107.9FM about what makes organic coffee awesome and how you feel after you’ve had a slice of our famous cheesecake. Have a quick listen to our interview below!
Here’s our favorite part, right near the end, with Trees Organic owner Doron Levy giving his impression after the interviewer bites into his cheesecake:
“That is Belgian chocolate… Now you are in heaven. For one hour at least, you can’t stop smiling.”

A fabulously creative customer decided to create a short fast-motion film of enjoying a cheesecake at Trees cafe on Granville. “Cheesecake gobble, gobble cheesecake, munchin’ on a cheesecake.”
In case you were curious, here’s the original for that tune, courtesy of the immortal Louis Armstrong:

Chunks of fresh mango nestled in our traditional New York base, swirled with mango puree make a fluffy, smooth summer treat. You can even throw it in the freezer for a cheesecake/ice-cream- inspired delight. This cheesecake already has a major fan following!
Sounds good? It tastes even better. And we can prove it.

Honestly, I know it may sound biased considering I work with the people at Trees, but there truly is no better way to enjoy the distinctive flavour of pumpkin than in cheesecake.
To those who are die-hard pumpkin pie fanatics, I bet that after one little bite you’ll be convinced there’s no better way to enjoy the flavours of pumpkin, cinnamon and spice than in a decadently creamy cheesecake from Trees.
Trees Organic Coffee & Roasting House (45 Granville St., Vancouver) is known for pouring some of Vancouver’s finest java, but did you know it also topped a 2006 poll for dishing up the city’s choicest cheesecake? So why not conduct your own taste test at the BC-owned cafe, which is now slicing up a taste of summer in the form of a Mango Splash Cheesecake. Not mad for mango? Choose one of the many other equally delectable flavours. For more info, visit treescoffee.com or call 604-684-5060.
The weather is finally getting nice and if you’re like me that means it’s the beginning of the much dreaded bathing suit season! I’d attempted to start yet another diet in anticipation of an upcoming pool party when I was faced with a major dilemma. Trees brought back its mango cheesecake for the summer and as a PR consultant for the cafe, I needed to try it if I was going to start promoting it.
I’ve tried sampling many of Trees sensational cheesecakes before – the Cranberry Orange at Christmas, the Irish Cream for St. Patty’s Day, the Sin for Valentine’s Day – and every time a little sample turned into a full on binge. Trees cheesecakes are truly the creamiest most irresistible cakes in town and the mango cheesecake is no exception. With its fresh chunks of mango and velvety texture, I was over my diet the moment it hit my lips. It was all worth it though, even if it stays forever on my hips.
I’d highly recommend coming into Trees for a piece of mango cheesecake while its still available. Or how about bringing an entire cheesecake to your next pool party and watch those bikini babes just try to resist!
Life is short, make it sweet – eat some cheesecake!
IN HIS WORLD:Doron Levy, owner of Trees Organic Coffee & Roasting House
Favourite summer dessert: Trees’ mango cheesecake is my absolute favourite summer dessert because its rich and creamy yet refreshing – plus its the perfect ending to a barbeque dinner on a hot summer night.
Favourite summer drink: Ice cold Limoncello, an Italian liqueur that I keep in the freezer all summer long. It tastes incredible with our mango cheesecake. Also, there’s nothing better than a cold glass of Stella Artois beer!
Best perk about your job: Chatting with our regular customers about everything from politics to coffee, and meeting new people from around the world every day.
Favourite hang-outs: Other than Trees, my favourite local hang-outs are the Latin Quarter on Commercial Drive, Kino Cafe Flamenco on Cambie Street and my deck at home overlooking the Seymour River.
Best place in the world to source organic coffee beans: I travelled the world sourcing the hightest quality organic coffee beans and found the best beans in Costa Rica. We’ve been selling them at the cafe for years.
Guilty pleasures: My favourite guilty pleasures are playing tennis on a regular basis and watching So You Think You Can Dance, American Idol and re-runs of M*A*S*H.
Reading right now: I’m an avid reader and love historical fiction. I just finished reading Patrick O’Brian’s 20 volume Aubrey-Maturin series about the Royal Navy during the Napoleonic Wars from 1801-1815. I’ve also read the Harry Potter series several times.
Must-haves for summer: At least four pairs of sunglasses and a good tennis racquet like my Wilson K Factor.
