Dufflet presents CAKE HAPPY HOUR ...

.

"Of all the cake joints, in all the towns, in all the world, she walks into mine."


We feel for you Rick, we really do. 

That's why the Dufflet Cake Happy Hour happens at all 3 Dufflet locations, every Wednesday from 2pm-6pm.

Buy 1 slice of cake and get one for Free!

Slice selection will vary weekly at each location.
Applicable to slices of equal or lesser value.
While quantities last.
No pre-orders.

Also, we will not be playing "As Time Goes By" because that song makes Rick really sad.

you don't need lederhosen to enjoy these ...

This is a Dufflet German Brownie. It has coconut, walnuts and chocolate cake topped with a gooey layer of more coconut and walnuts combined in a buttery vanilla icing.

It is delicious. You should have one. You will like it!

smores? ok!

.
Chewy and gooey, Dufflet Smores bars are a sweet way to perk up a coffee break! Graham crust with a chocolate fudge filling, topped with toasted marshmallows and chocolate drizzle. Campfire songs are optional!

Daily Bread Ultimate Food Challenge 2012

.

Daily Bread invites you to experience a sublime culinary adventure as they kick off their inaugural Ultimate Food Challenge event presented by Campbell’s on Wednesday, May 2, 2012.

Join our crowd of taste-leaders for a well-deserved after-work cocktail with friends as you watch the action ringside. Whet your appetite with gourmet appetizers prepared by Daily Bread’s Catering Kitchen, enjoy the hospitality provided by graduates and trainees of the Food Services Training Program (run by Daily Bread), and observe the creative process of some the most talented chefs in Toronto.

See who rises to the top as Chefs Nick auf der Mauer, Steve Gonzalez, and Rob Rossi battle it out to win the taste buds of our judges. Watch as our Chefs whip the contents of an ordinary food bank hamper box into palatable art. Sample their signature dishes and let your stomach decide who wins the way to your heart. Toast the winner with a little bubbly by Barefoot Wine & Bubbly or kick back with a cold one by Beau’s All Natural Brewing Co., indulge your sweet tooth with a little chocolate by Ferrero Rocher and dessert by Dufflet.

Ultimate Food Challenge is Daily Bread’s largest signature fundraising event of the year. All proceeds benefit Daily Bread’s programs to help thousands of families in Toronto who need your help in the fight against hunger in our city.

WEDNESDAY, MAY 2, 2012

Christopher Hutsul is pretty awesome!

.
Christopher Hutsul is a Toronto-based artist and filmmaker whose work you might know from the hilarious "Nasty Clown" ad for Telus (turn off autocorrect LOL!) There's a clip of it on his blog at http://www.hutsul.com/index.php?/project/blog/

I nipped into Cherry Bomb on Roncesvalles to snap a photo of Hutsul's artwork on their wall, but what I really wanted to share with you is one small detail ... our Dufflet delivery truck made it into his ART!!! We're really flattered (and super proud) to be included in this really cool landmark piece.

Check out Hutsul's site at www.hutsul.com or his Tumblr for the full image of the installation at Cherry Bomb.

And if you're on the Roncy strip, check out Cherry Bomb at 79 Roncesvalles or visit their site at http://www.cherrybombcoffee.ca

eat more cake, ride more bike 2012!

Participate in the 5th annual Tour de Dufflet during Toronto Bike Month. 

Get a little exercise and something sweet by cycling to all 3 Dufflet cafes in one day! 

Registered participants will receive a souvenir and refreshments as they get their passports stamped at each location.

A $5 registration fee (payable on the day of your ride) will be donated to the Toronto Cyclists Union. 

You will visit your first cafe only once to register and to receive stamp #1; you may tour our 3 locations in any order.

The Tour de Dufflet was designed for singles and pairs to explore the city's bike paths. If you are cycling with a large group, please stagger your starts/arrivals into foursomes at least 15 minutes apart to allow our staff to serve both our regular store customers and Tour de Dufflet participants.

Refreshments include bottled water or regular coffee, and a choice from that day’s brownies or savoury snacks (spanokopita or samosa). Daily selections will vary. At your final location (stamp #3) you will hand in your stamped passport to be eligible for a grand prize draw at the end of bike month.

... because Dufflet has added a new filled cupcake flavour - Strawberry Shortcake! 

Imagine a moist golden vanilla 3" cupcake injected with strawberry compote, topped with vanilla and strawberry swirled buttercream and garnished with shortcake crumbs.

Hey - get off the floor!

Strawberry Shortcake cupcakes are available at all 3 Dufflet cafes for $2.85 each along with other filled cupcakes in Devil's Raspberry and Lemon Blueberry.
