cake! in the shape of a heart!

.
What's new for Valentine's Day at Dufflet? Glad you asked!

With 3 flavours of 6" heart-shaped cakes, there's a sweetheart for every taste! Choose from Strawberry Mousse with golden ladyfingers, sour cream Chocolate Fudge or Pink Velvet with its unforgettable cream cheese icing.

We've added a collection of filled cupcakes to our roster including Devil's Raspberry, Caramel Milk Chocolate and Lemon Blueberry.

For the chocolate lover we have a brand new Chocolate Ganache Whoopie Cookie and our single-serve Chocolate + Raspberry Mousse Heart returns for the season.

Pre-order your Valentine's cakes now at any Dufflet cafe and avoid sadface (or a night in the dog house!)

lunch money day, lunch money month!

.
Lunch Money Day is a campaign that asks Torontonians to run fundraisers in support of Second Harvest on February 16th.

Dufflet Pastries will donate $1.00 from every 4” Cowboy Cookie sold (price $1.80 each) for the entire month of February at all 3 Dufflet locations!

What's in a Cowboy cookie? Chunks of dark chocolate and marshmallows, raisins, coconut, peanuts and oats. 

Last year, over 250 Toronto companies ran Lunch Money Day fundraisers and raised funds to provide for almost 500,000 meals! Visit lunchmoneyday.com to find out more and how you can participate.

how can you eat just one?

.
Serious question, folks!

Dufflet mini-cupcakes in Devil's Food and Real Vanilla pack a lot of delicious for their 1.5" size and their naturally tinted buttercreams


You can eat these like bonbons so that makes them perfect for next week's episode of Downton Abbey or maybe the weekend's NFL playoff games?

Mini-cupcakes go with everything, and are available at all 3 Dufflet cafes for $1.50 each.

breakfast meetings can be sweet!

.
Need a fresh idea for your next breakfast meeting munchies tray? How about a Dufflet Cranberry Orange Bundt?

Our 3" bundt has been scientifically proven to be perfect for sharing, or hoarding to yourself. 


What's inside? Moist, buttery orange pound cake with tart cranberries soaked with orange syrup and lightly dusted with icing sugar.

Grab them to go, or pre-order a Dufflet platter with a fine variety of mini bundts and coffeecakes and see how productive you become.

Ok, back to work everyone!
