Dufflet Pastries - Old Toronto

Oh what a huge disappointment!!! Carrot Cake. I tried it at a party about a year ago and it became my favourite right away. I bought it a few more times and still enjoyed it until I bought it again few days ago.Presentation leaves a lot of room for improvement. Layers were so uneven that I could see it even without measuring (1.5 cm difference).But the “icing on the cake” is that it’s barely existing icing. And sloppily applied outer layer. Even mature could have done a better job.$30 for a smallish cake which is not complicated to make at all mix and bake apply icing. Someone at the store told me it comes in frozen and then gets defrosted) so it’s not freshly made either.That’s really disrespectful to me as a customer. I will not buy it again or anything else from Dufflet.

I’ve been meaning to get a pastry from Dufflet for a while and finally went in today. The really nice staff helped me pick a not-sweet tart: key lime. Delicious! I highly recommend Dufflet.

Wanted a quality birthday cake in a pinch so I went for a Dufflet cake. Big mistake!! Dufflet cake used to mean quality. I paid $20 for a small lemon cake covered in that really gross artificial icing that’s used on those cheap kid cakes, and there was little to no lemon flavour. What happened to the buttercream you used to use? 2 stars because it was pretty, and the sponge cake was moist. Actually though the cake out and I love cake. The icing and flavour was that disappointing and ruined the cake part of night.

Great service as always. Forgot my tile log pickup yesterday and they honoured the order today without problem. Another reason we always get cakes for important events for the last 25 years!

Two good experiences with Dufflet so far, including purchasing our wedding cake.Aside from being picturesque, the cakes have been absolutely delicious both times.They were easy to communicate with, delivered on time, and loved by our guests.
