Yummmmmmmmmmm.

Went for the first time today and it was 2-1 Wednesday. What a great deal, 2 slices for approx $5. That's amazing actually, in a city with a lot of expensive dessert options. My friend and I each had a slice- the Lemon Parfait and the Strawberry Mousse. Wow, so good. Not overly sweet, but light and delicious. I also had a cuppa.

The staff was friendly and quick, and there were... more

Dufflet Pastries Inc has a very cute vintage website that progandas people to eat more cake. Dufflet Rosenberg began baking since 1975. Since opening the first pastry café on Queen Street West, Dufflet has had a couple locations throughout the Greater Toronto Region: Yonge Street, the Beaches neighborhood on Queen Street East, etc.

Besides giant size portions, we hardly find Dufflet to be the... more

The carrot cake was amazing. The cake was moist and the icing was not too sweet, but just right. The slice they cut was pretty big for the price. Will come back again.

I technically still like Dufflet's but am so put off by the "better than you" attitude now. Used to come here with my Dad for carrot cake slices way back in the day (like 15+ years ago) and it was such a fun experience. Now, I feel like an annoyance simply by walking through their door. For my birthday last year, my fiancé asked for them to do a black spiderweb design on my cake (I'm a... more

I love Dufflet Pastries.

Their pie crust is delicious. Their lemon meringue tarts are lovely. The brownie-s'mores bar is delicious.

This little shop will take requests/orders if you submit them online or by the phone in advance. I suggest ordering 1 of everything for your next binge.

Inside, it is small and cozy. I have never stopped to eat my treat there, but instead have parked in front... more

Very Yummy, the cake slices never disappoint!! I find the best time of the day is to go during lunch, much more selection!

Stop #3 on the Chocolate Tour by Great Food Tours.

Nice shop with beautiful looking cakes and squares. Small spot but could definitely stop here for a coffee and a treat.

The chocolate tour included THE BEST brownie that I have ever tasted!!

I first discovered Dufflet's about 17 years ago or so when I was a driver and I stopped in on a cafe in Roncesvalles to grab a drink when I saw these absolutely gorgeous key lime tarts. Anybody that knows me knows that I'm not a dessert person but there are certain desserts like cheesecake, or key lime pie that will make me make an exception to eating sweets.

Needless to say I returned to this... more

Dufflets cakes are never disappointing.
Carrot, coconut and chocolate are all delicious!

Bonus points for them expanding to cater to the vegan market with both a vegan carrot cake and a vegan chocolate cake.

5 stars for consistently good product. A birthday is not a birthday without a dufflet cake!

Confession: I have a slight obsession with cupcakes! I know it's all the rage and the hype is getting slightly old. In my defence I consider it a science experiment- how else is one to find the best cupcakes in the city?! I will gladly try every butter cream and cream cheese frosting out there for my fellow Yelpers out there and hope that I stick to my running regime to combat my indulgences.... more

OK place for Brit-style sweets

If one was looking for say, French style pastries then this place might not fit the bill. But most items here are tasty. Our default fave is their apple tart. Service always seems to border on the 'blah, rather be elsewhere' side. Toronto is not necessarily known for its great pastry shops. I am done. The end.

Little cake shop down on Queen St. West. Wow. They do make amazing cakes. I got some mini cakes and also got a big chocolate truffle something. ( I forgot the actual name). It was heaven! It was not too sweet and not too heavy. I couldn't stop eating it. If you all get a chance. Go and try it!

Decent pastries,, wasn't too big a fan of the chocolate cupcakes, but their smores were amazing. Also had a red velvet cupcake that was good, and a date in some sort of crumble that I didn't find all that great.

Blueberry cheese cake is amazing.
Cupcake is nice too.
Love this store.
Parking lot not sure, street parking available.

One of the last great pastry places left

Dufflets is always good. The last real user of cream around. Wild cherry cream cheese cake and a Earl Grey is the way for me!

Love this cute little cake shop. Great selection of baked goods, dessert, and different sized cakes. My only complaint is that they can be very understaffed sometimes and the wait time can be long.

The cakes are amazing--not too sweet and they taste divine.

I bought some mini cakes and macaroons.

The classic New York cheese cake is great. The cheese cake texture is smooth and fluffy. The graham cracker layer was soft, crumbly, and not too dry. The chocolate mousse cake is great too. The mousse is rich, creamy, and not too sweet.

I loved the macaroons. They have an awesome deal of 3 macaroons for $1 for day old macaroons. Or $1.25 for fresh ones.... more

Just saying the name Dufflet's makes me drool.

Okay, I will admit it right up front - I have a sweet tooth as big as all outdoors. Dufflet's provided the cake for my daughter's engagement party and again for her wedding. Everyone raved about the... more

Left a bit disappointed

I went to their 2638 Yonge St. location and tried a slice of Pink velvet cake and a slice of Tiramisu cake. The cream cheese filling in Pink velvet was tasty but extremely heavy. I could only eat... more

Sweet Tooth Destination of Choice

Visited the 2638 Yonge location Sat Sept 14 2013. Purchased 2 strawberry shortcake cupcakes, 2 pumpkin cupcakes and 2 pumpkin pie tarts for $18. The location was very busy and the service was very quick and friendly. The gentleman with the moustache wearing the "Eat More Cake" shirt was great. The cupcakes were delish, the buttercream is rich but feels... more

While I have always loved Dufflet cakes and tarts, I should have never gone to the shop. The disinterested staff tried to stay as far from me as they could, one leaning against the counter behind the glass with her arms akimbo, clearly exasperated with my lack of ordering. Given there were 4 people in the shop at the time I am unclear why my attendance at the counter was met with such negative... more

FANTASTIC cheese cake !!! My favourite Blueberry Lemon!!!

Delicious Pasteries and cakes

I wen there with my husband by referral to try the dessert there. They have Awesome Butter cream strawberry cakes. They also do custom cakes including wedding cakes.

Amazing bakery

I like to find bakeries and cafes on my own. With the help of a few reviews, I finally made the trip downtown Toronto with a friend and ventured out to Queen Street West to find Dufflet. It took us approximately 10-15 minutes. We were very excited when we found this cute little bakery shop. When we went in, I... more

Fantastic tastes

I happened on this pastry shop by chance with a colleague. The cakes which I tasted was Fantastic. I tried some other pastries and it was worth my visit. I have been back there twice since my first visit and I truly enjoy the service, cleanliness and even though the location for me is a bit of a trek, it... more

Still excellent after all these years

The cheesecakes are amazing + I'm not even a cheese cake fan! Both butter tarts and pecan tarts are sublime. I have never tasted a less than delicious cake here, however coconut is still my favourite. The Queen West location is the best and they'll make you a cake for pick up with only 24 hours notice. You get what... more

Sweet tooth cravings

I used to work as a baker during the summer as a part time gig at the main factory by ossingon back when I was in highschool/college so I know their ingredients used were always fresh. Its been years since i wore their baking uniform, 7 to be exact but I always get their pecan and chocolate glazed tarts whenever... more

French without tears

The overall standard of patisseries in Toronto is pretty dismal ---- with one shining exception. Dufflets have a sort of cafe at both extremes of Queen Street and a 3rd at Yonge St in midtown that I have never visited. None are easy for tourists to get to, but their products are mercifully available at a number of grocery stores... more

Top Quality for more than 15 Years

My family and I have been ordering our birthday and Christmas Cakes from Dufflet Pastries for more time than I can actually remember. Their desserts are of the highest quality and their prices are great. I should warn you, if you are one of those people who goes out to buy a birthday cake from Costco or Loblaws, that is... more

I love cake

The only thing I ever order in Dufflet's is cake and coffee. I like the chocolate raspberry truffle cake and have even requested this one for my birthday cake. The coconut is my second favourite slice and it's big enough to share if you're feeling especially gluttonous. I like going Wednesdays with a friend for the twofer which makes it... more

Just happened upon a great cafe/lunch spot

We stopped into the children's bookstore next door to Dufflet and decided to grab a bite to eat. Funky eating are at the back with lots of sunshine! Good sandwiches, not a bad latte and a great dessert selection! Staff was also friendly and enthusiastic! A fun spot for a quick bite in the Beaches!

Amazing Bakery

Not cheap, but consistently among the best cakes and pastries in the city. Get in early for best selection.

Dufflet is a Toronto institution--even if you've never gone into the store, you've probably had a Dufflet pastry at some point (a catered work lunch, a friend's baby shower, a pick-me-up as you leave Whole Foods).

The shop itself isn't huge, but there's charming art on the walls and it's easy to strike up a conversation with other people in the shop. I chose a day-old molten lava cake (day-old... more

Nice

It was okay, but certainly did not wow me. Dufflet has gone mass market (can be found at Loblaw's supermarkets across Toronto), and somewhere along the way they have lost the wow factor that they used to have.

Coffee is not that good

But the cakes and pastries are delicious.
Basic space, a little cold.
Better for take out.
Always friendly helpful service.

Good pastry

Coffee is a little basic.
Pastries are delicious.
Space is a little scarce and cold.
Free parking north of queen.

I've had worse, that's why two stars. Have you ever tried those super market cakes, you expect those to be bad. With Dufflets what use to be a unique tasty treat has for the most part gone main stream and has become nothing more than sugar sweet that looks better than it taste. Typically too sweet to enjoy. You would be better off putting your straw in a bowl of sugar and sucking. Sorry to... more

Whats the big deal

I went there today at 4:30pm- the staff was ready to jet out! Grill was turned off and they were as if just counting down the time... Pasteries- too buttery and believe me there are some REAL good places around... I hear their cakes are real good but anything apart from that is over rated... more

I got a tiramisu cake for my brother's birthday. It was delicious. I would highly recommend this place.

Something for everyone

People will tell you they have favorite Dufflets--mine is the butter tart. Perfectly flaky and sweet, like I remember my mom making. And every cake I've had--even flavors I didn't think I'd like--has been delicious.

Sinful

But worth the calories. My favourite (I'm not a huge chocolate fan) is the dacquoise. You're welcome.

Totally overrated

I really don't get why people like this stuff so much...I've had their pastries several times, and I find them completely unexceptional...in fact, a total waste of A LOT of calories.

This One is Hard to Beat

These are some of the most delectable desserts I have ever had. And I work in the food industry so that is a big statement. The quality is consistent, decadent and unbeatable. LOVE Dufflet's Pastries!

White Chocolate Cake

I think this is the best white chocolate cake in the city.
Affordable and moist and tasty and never a slice left at the table it is so good. Dufflet's has a ton more to choose from and you can always order ahead. Easy friendly service. Chocolate peacan pie is also incredible.

simply quality

Dufflet's is a standard for special event cakes for us, or for when we're simply in need of a bit of a pick-me-up. Great, helpful staff too.

Good Sandwiches too

We always try to be along Queen Street West around the lunch hour so that we can pop into Dufflets to enjoy a sandwich and one (or two) of their great desserts. I usually have the grilled granny Smith sliced apple with melted sharp cheddar cheese one and a butter tart or other decadent pastry. Also their coffee is very... more

I go often

This is a great place for sweets and to buy cakes for special occasions or any occasions! However, I usually go for a snack or lunch and really enjoy the savoury foods they offer. You can have a great bite for under $5.00 Their coffee and tea are top notch and there always seems to be a place to sit... more

Yummy!

Love the choices which are made fresh

We love all the cakes Dufflets has to offer - in particular - all their gluton free choices! Staff (Beaches location) is always friendly and even if I don't remember to order ahead - there is always ample selection on the weekend. If you do remember though - hop on their website and order ahead - Holidays like Christmas, Easter... more

The very best when it comes to desserts

Whenever I have a special occasion and I am in charge of desserts it is Dufflet absolutely the best when it comes to pastries ,to many to mention one as a favor they are all delicious .Not cheap but worth it.
Ernie Kohler Toronto

Love their triple chocolate mousse cake and blueberry cheesecake. seating available at the front and back of the caffe

Their carrot cake is amazing.

Best birthday cake

I LOVE Dufflet Pastries and always order all of my family birthday cakes from here. A fantastic selection of cake flavours, choices of fillings, icing and beautiful decorations. In short, a visual treat as well as delicious birthday cake every time. Many locations throughout the city of Toronto- easy access by public transportation. Great cupcakes, cookies, squares, pies and other... more

Taste: Great! Got the White and Dark chocolate Mousse minicake. It was soft and fluffy, not too sweet, and was delicate.

Looks: Average.. It looked like I could get the same from loblaws or something. Also came apart when we put our fork in it!

Value: Average... came to 5 dollars and it was SMALL. My girfriend and I each got like 2 bites and it was already all gone... I would pay 3.50 for... more

Melts in your mouth

Super yumm pastries, with generous portions, each cake slice is like a small meal and serious calorie overload, lol. Loved the Raspberry chocolate truffle cake, which we took home to Hamilton.

A fantastic bakery experience

Just when you thought you had tasted every cake, every new 'fad' - you walk into a place like Dufflet Pasties. The taste sensations are out of this world and worth every single penny... more

Delicious Cake

We came by to try their cake as we had a coupon. Their cake is absolutely delicious! One of the best I've had. The slices are HUGE. It's probably about twice the size as a normal slice elsewhere. Definitely worth it for $5. If you're in the area, definitely drop by.

Chocolate Delight

The pastries are absolutely wonderful with matching customer service. Every time I come here I am always greeting kindly. I've also purchased a custom cake online for when fiancee came with me to visit Toronto. They did an excellent job creating my vision though a simple typed description. As for the desserts the cakes are always moist and the mousses... more

Best Pastries in GTA-Toronto

Please check out the pastries of the Canadian famous Dufflet's. They are simply the best. Personal favorites are the "Canadian butter tarts" and the Raspberry chocolate truffle cake, is to die for...I buy it for every occasion, lol. There are so many choices, its crazy check out their website. The best part is the quality & quantity of ingredients, super... more

Yummmy

Dufflet pastries are fantastic. Not always inexpensive but very, very good. You can purchase goodies by the slice or whole cakes. The raspberry/chocolate combo cake is absolutely fantastic...very light even though it looks very rich.

Superb desserts

Dufflet make superb desserts: and they are not limited to pastries. they make absolutely the best carrot cake that have tasted in more than half a century. their skill is in juxtaposing flavours, textures and weight to create new taste experiences from familiar foods. Kudos to them!

Great Selection - vegan choices

If you can make a vegan cake taste good, you must be talented! This place has such a large selection for all kinds of palettes.

Delicious

I believe that the cakes and pastries baked here are the best anywhere. I try to get a Dufflet cake for every special occasions.

Not as stupendous as I had been led to believe

I was disappointed at the tough pastry of the lemon tart. My cappuccino
however was the best ever. I will try a different dessert if I ever return again.

delicious chocolate cake and vanilla cupcakes

OMG! What is not to savour in this bakery. Everything is delicious! Their tarts are tasty too! The chocolate icing with vanilla cake, and vanilla cupcakes are scrump-dilly!!!!!! I would rip my box open everytime if it weren't so pretty ;)

Simply the Best

Fifty words will not flow when you are simply the best. This store supplies all of the up scales restaurants in town and some specialty grocery stores. Don't leave town without a taste.

Coffee and cake

A nice place for tea, great selection of cakes and other baked goods. I've seen a fly in their display area on more than once occasion though. They girl there wasn't too concerned and just shooed the fly away. I watched her to make sure she didn't give me the piece that the fly landed on!

Always great treats

You can never go wrong with Dufflet Pastries! I haven't had anything that I didn't like.

When you decide to cast the diet aside, do it here

Fresh made pasteries of almost every discription and a selection of well selected other interesting items and foods make Dufflet a repeat stop for us when we are in Toronto. On our stop in April we bought items that we brought back to Michigan to share with family for Easter, and even a few days less fresh due to our... more

Nice treat

nice simple atmostphere, delicous cream-filled pastry with pastry just right and cream delicous and just enough in portion

sensational desserts

home grown pastry chef - our family's go to bakery for all special occasions!

Ummm...cake

They never fail to create something quite delicious. Though their stuff may look expensive, each will go a long way. They manage to add some new items, but manage to keep all my favorites on the board.

Yummy Desserts

After a lunch in Chinatown in Toronto, we drove to Dufflet's for dessert. They have an amazing selection of freshly made baked goods, and it was well worth the trip. If you are looking for a great treat, be sure to visit Dufflet's . . . it is well worth the calories!

Pink Velvet Cake

Went to the location on Yonge Street to pick up a cake for a birthday. The cake was pre-ordered; staff were very friendly. Cake was absolutely up to their usual standard. The only place I know you can get a Pink Velvet Cake. Delicious.

Delicious Pastries

I love Dufflet Pastries, especially the chocolate ones. It has various sizes of cakes which is good for me because I like to eat a variety and not be stuck with a large one. It has two outlets that I am aware of. One is located on 1917 Queen Street East in the Beaches area and one is on 2638... more

Omg yum

On a stroll along Queen West we decided to "window shop" inside this place. We knew the name and the reputation but we weren't sure we wanted to splurge on a treat. Then we saw it...the day old chocolate tarts. Only 75cents each. We bought them and I can honestly say that I cannot imagine how they could have been... more

I am a sucker for bakeries. Rarely can I go into a bakery and not buy anything and Dufflet Pastries is not an exception! I got a hazelnut cakelet for I don't remember the price but I do remember it was a very reasonable price. You're suppose to keep this cake refrigerated but I left it in the trunk (inside a cooler) for almost the whole day and it was totally fine with I got it home.

Drool.
