I don't burn tarts, but the teas...well, that's RIGHT up my alley!!
I actually don't like Teavana very much. They had a good coconut tea I liked, but truthfully, I find them overpriced for their goods. I don't mind spending money on good tea, but I don't like spending money on tea that is just 'eh'.
That said, my favorites lately:
I like Mighty Leaf, it's pricey but good. I especially like the orange de leche tea, fabulous. The African Nectar is also great.
I like Gypsy tea. I've been drinking a ton of it lately. The coconut chai is FABULOUS and definitely worth trying. Their Cacao Berry green tea (in the pink line) is also great. I don't love that shipping is SO expensive, but I do have a store near me that carries it for LESS than they sell it on their sight. I've tried a lot of these teas and those are two of my faves although they are ALL good and can't go wrong. I do have to say that the Mojito Mint just tastes like plain mint tea that you can get anywhere so skip that one.
I like Adagio teas, too! It's been a while since I've had them, actually, since I've been on the Gypsy tea kick. Their tea pots/cups/etc are all FABULOUS too. Microwaveable and dishwasher safe but look amazing. Highly recommend.
My other brand that I've been loving is Eastern Shore Tea Company http://www.easternshoretea.com. They have a ton of unique flavored teas for CHEAP!!! $3.95 each (or cheaper at the store I go to). I especially love their coconut rum tea because teavana discontinued their coconut tea. But they are all great and very unique.
Tea is my thing, if you haven't noticed. 
Enjoy!
