Dufflet Pastries - Old Toronto

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!

I really really don’t know how this place got such great reviews!It looks cute, cozy, and inviting, from the outside, but the service is lacking; the regular brew coffee tastes watered down and unappetizing, and although the pastries look delicious the pastry we got were hard like they had been sitting exposed for too long.My girlfriend and I were the only customers and it took forever to get our order. The server never heated up her apple crumble properly, as she requested, or it could be that by the time he heated it and stood chatting in the back with someone while holding her pastry over their unmasked faces it was brought out cold and sprinkled with unseen salivary fluids!A couple of ladies came in and left after about 10 minutes.The place has a weird vibe it is really not a hip coffee/pastry place that you can relax in or get delicious coffee, or warm melt in your mouth scrumptious pastries.??

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.

DEVILS OF YOUR OWN SUCCESS!!!Ordered a carrot cake and specifically said that I did not want the garnish on top nuts and carrots made of icing. When I picked up the cake it was garnished with nuts. I asked the manager if they could remove the nuts and re ice the top of the cake. He graciously agreed and when he returned it looked like my 2.5 year old grandson had taken a shovel to the cake. The manager agreed. He then very nicely offered me the cake that was in the showcase which had the iced carrots on it and took it to the back for them to be removed. Once again it looked like a hatchet had been taken to the cake. He kindly offered me a gift certificate for another cake which I declined. Top is all off it looks like the cake has shrunk in size. He also advised me that the cakes are not fresh; rather they are flash frozen and delivered to the retail store. All for $32.00. Next time I will bake it myself.

While there has been a surge of cake and cupcakes stores in downtown Toronto, you can count on Difflet for fresh cakes in multiple variations. Lots of new vegan and gluten free choices. Easy to order and pick up. I got a caramel cheesecake and everyone loved it. It was a huge plus for me that they had everything you need in terms of cards, candles, etc. Making this a one stop shop for a birthday celebration.
