Cupcake of the month!

July already?!
It's summertime and it's HOT-leave your oven off and let us do your baking for you!



This months feature cupcake is delicious- take my word for it! It's a walnut cupcake topped with a maple buttercream frosting... it gets even yummier with a piece of candied walnut on top...Mmmm!

We have added a few exciting (and yummy) items to our shop in the past few weeks: homemade granola and Ontario strawberry jam (the strawberries were hand picked by one of our own yummy staff!) We are also excited about the super cute aprons (kid sizes too!) arriving later this week!

Check back during the summer for more updates on our yummy seasonal baked goods!

Fathers Day Treats!



Do you have the best dad ever? I do. It seems as though Dads are pre-programmed with a unique set of skills and can, on any day, be one (or all) of the following: fixer of all things broken, professional landscaper, BBQ-er extraordinaire, champion beer drinker, plumber, personal finance adviser and comedian. Let's all give our Dads a big hug and spend some time with him this weekend.

We have you covered this Fathers Day: swing by the shop and pick up something yummy to show your Dad how much you care. How about some cookies in the shapes of his favorite things? Maybe your Dad likes cake? Maybe he fancies pie? Or, maybe he is a golfer- why not pick him up a chocolate cupcake with "golf green" frosting and a golf ball topper he can use for his next tee time?

Time to treat Dad. The weather in Toronto is supposed be beautiful this weekend. I'm thinking a BBQ (burgers of course!) with potato salad, coleslaw, cold beers and lots of yummy stuff!

Cupcake of the month!

Wow! June already? The month of May sped by us- we spent a lot of time making some really beautiful custom cakes for many happy customers!

This month's cupcake is a real treat: orange and poppyseed, another winning flavour combo. It's the perfect treat to begin our transition into summer: light, spongy and delicate. Also perfect for snacking while strolling along Queen west- come by the shop and pick one up! Yum!

In other news... are pastry case has been home to some pretty great treats in the last few weeks. Nothing beats the extra-special treats we had this weekend: open faced strawberry pie made with... local Ontario strawberries! Summer bounty is here! Stay tuned for lots of yummy updates!

Sushi for Dessert!

Take a look at this fun cake we made a few weeks ago!
A customer came to us with several ideas and pictures of what she wanted and this is our interpretation- an entirely edible (even the chopsticks) cake!

This cake is a great example of what yummy stuff can do for you. Do you have a great and unique idea that you don't see featured on our website or blog? Give us a quick email or phone call and we can work together to make you a great cake!

If you are interested in having your own sushi cake, please take note that we need a minimum of 7 days notice. This particular cake costs $6.00/ serving and can be made to feed a crowd of any size!
