The 2010 Winter Games are coming to an end this weekend, and what a GAME ON Olympics it has been so far!

Although none of us here at Dufflet Pastries were able to make the trip to Vancouver to enjoy the events in person, one of our favourite customers, Wendy Battler from Waterloo, sent us these photos she took earlier this week when she toured Ontario House.

Top to bottom:

Interactive screen behind the bar/lounge at Ontario House where customers noshed on Dufflet's Iced Brownies and Kahlua Toffee Bars along with other Ontario made gourmet foods and bevvies while playing 4D games or enjoying live music performances.

Serving it up sweet outside Ontario House - Vancouver weather was BLISS for folks walking from pavilion to pavilion.

Sponsor displays inside Ontario House add a homey touch; one of the posters shows Grace, Dufflet's head decorator, adding the finishing touches to a wedding cake.

We are super proud of our athletes and congratulate them whole-heartedly! For a list of Canada's medals won to date, check out CTV http://www.ctvolympics.ca/team-canada/medals/index.html


EAT MORE CAKE ... WIN MORE GOLD ... LET YOUR BEER SEE SOME ICE-TIME!

winter games > lover games > family games

Kicking off the long weekend in style will be the opening ceremonies for the Olympic Winter Games in Vancouver tonight.

Those of you already in Vancouver, please note 3 very important things:
1)  Dufflet brownies will be available in Ontario House
2)  I'm really jealous of you being there playing with all the neat interactive stuff in Ontario House
3)  The first 5 people to TWEET a photo to @tourdedufflet that shows a screen shot of the Dufflet interactive presentation in Ontario house will win something sweet from our Small Indulgences line of confections. (must live in Canada to receive prize!)

It's Valentine's Day on Sunday. Have you pre-ordered your special heart shaped cake yet? If the answer is no, I would not want to be you on Sunday *insert sad face here*

Monday is Family Day, and both Dufflet Downtown and Uptown will be closed.

But WAIT!!! Dufflet Beach will be open from 11am to 5pm and will have a section in the dining room where kids can decorate their own cupcakes. *sprinkle fights discouraged*

GO CANADA!!!

let the games begin!

Dufflet Rosenberg, aka the "Queen of Cake", celebrates 35 years of baking for the masses in 2010 and invites you to EAT MORE CAKE with special events and fun partnerships throughout the year.

The festivities began when Dufflet's flag-ship Downtown cafe celebrated 28 sweet years at 787 Queen Street West with anniversary cake on Saturday, January 23rd.
