For 2026 Heritage Week, the Pitt Meadows Museum is tracing sweet traditions through time, offering its spoon-licking Just Desserts features.
BC Heritage Week takes place from Feb. 16 to 22, and each day the museum will post virtual sweet treats – historical recipes from their collection, while offering a bit of history as icing on the cake.
Then, on. Feb. 22 the museum will invite the public to join them to decorate a recipe book cover that will be available, featuring all of the recipes.
Find the recipes, and learn more, at pittmeadowsmuseum.com.
