We’re thrilled over how popular our Unicorn Cakes have become here at Le Dolci. They are as cute as they are tasty and make the perfect celebration cake. The only thing we can think of better than receiving one is learning how to make your very own! If you would like to learn the magical tips and tricks behind our Unicorn Cakes, join our Unicorn Cake Class this Sunday from 2pm-5:30pm!

This class will teach you all the unicorn pastry essentials. Students will learn how to mask their cakes in buttercream, paint their own golden unicorn horn, create fondant eyes and ears and finish off with piping a colourful mane! Students will learn unique techniques that will allow them to improve and develop their decorating skills. Not only that, but they’ll get to take home their very own Unicorn Cake!

Sign up here today and book your spot to create your very own Unicorn Cake! Our studio is located at 1006 Dundas Street West across from Trinity Bellwoods Park. We can’t wait to see you and start decorating!

We at Le Dolci take pride in creating amazing cakes and providing unique culinary experiences to those who take our classes. Our combination of sweet treats and hands-on collaboration in our studio has been loved by the masses for over five years strong.

We take the time to create your dream cake and teach you special baking techniques, so it is always nice when our customers take time out of their own busy schedules to write us back about their positive experiences. It means a lot to our hard working staff when they receive your positive feedback.

Here are some of the great things people have said to us after receiving one of our cakes or attending one of our classes.

I just wanted to say thank you so much because the cake was amazing! Delivery was so worth it. I really appreciate everything and how easily you assisted me – I’ll for sure be a repeat customer. I raved about your great service to all of our guests – you were kind, helpful and very great at helping me organise- thank you!

 Hi there! Just wanted to let you know I absolutely loved the class. My husband gifted it to me for Christmas. The instructor was wonderful. She was funny and really entertained while instructing, keeping our attention and teaching such interesting tips and tricks. I left feeling like I am a doughnut master now! I wrote a 5-star review on Google for Le Dolci as well as on my 5k Cakewalk Facebook page. Thanks for the recipes and a great time!

I’m so sorry it has taken me more than a week to get back to you. First off I have to say the cake was absolutely GORGEOUS! It was a spectacular hit for children and adults alike. But the best part was it tasted even better than it looked! (Which sounds quite impossible – but it’s actually not.) The texture of the Funfetti was divine. I must admit I had a terribly hard time sharing the leftovers with the birthday girl and I find my heart racing at just the thought of the cake. I have a special secret trick: I nuke my slice until the buttercream is so soft that it actually starts melting. The cake is way more flavourful that way and has a superior texture. Of course, you can’t serve it that way, but if you ever sneak a slice, please try it. Simply put, it was perfection.

From all of us at Team Le Dolci, thank you for your continued love and support. Your kind words make all of our hard work purposeful. Here is to many more years of cool classes and great cakes!

Jane Bowen is Le Dolci’s cake decorator extraordinaire. She wows us constantly, not only with her awesome decorating skills but with all the funny things she says. A minute of speaking with her often results in crazy bouts of laughter because she is a comedy queen without even trying. We asked her some fun questions to get to know her better. Here’s presenting “Meet Our Staff!” with Jane Bowen:

Q 1. If you were a new entry to the cake case, which cake would you be?

I would be a lemon cake because it is refreshing and zesty, very much like me.

Q 2. If you could be a cupcake, what flavour would you choose?

I would definitely be a vanilla funfetti cupcake with vanilla icing and colourful sprinkles.

Q 3. Who is your favourite superhero?

The Flash is my all-time favourite superhero.

Q 4. What is your spirit animal?

A cat because just like me, they like to sleep a lot!

Q 5. What is one word to describe you best?

A boss (said with much swag and a side tilt of the head).

Q 6. What is your favourite part about being a cake baker/decorator?

I love the creative aspect of decoration and the freedom to create unique treats.

Q 7. Are there any suggestions or pieces of advice you would like to give customers?

When you place an order, give us an overall theme but also trust the designer to fulfil your vision.

Q 8.  What has been your best creation so far?

Mastering our Unicorn Cake has to be my best experience and creation.

Q 9. Who inspires you the most and why?

I take inspiration from my co-decorator Rita, whose work is just flawless!

Q 10.  Who would you like to share a piece of cake with, dead or alive?

Easy, with my husband for sure!

Our staff are in shop Monday-Friday putting cakes together for various different events and retailers. Located at 1006 Dundas Street West across from Trinity Bellwoods Park, you can see them through our store front window working their hardest to meet the demands of our beloved clients. Drop by and take a look for yourself!

Stay tuned for our next Staff Portrait!

The true north strong and free is turning 150-years-old in a few short days! Our country offers so many amazing sights, sounds and people. It really is what makes Canada the beautiful place we love to call home. To embrace all that is Canadian, we at Le Dolci have created three amazing Canada Day themed cakes for the tastiest birthday celebration ever!

The Justin

This cake is perfectly simple but tremendously tasty. The Justin has a white exterior and a red maple leaf flat on top just like our flag! Tiny red candies are placed around the bottom for a pop of colour. So good we know Mr. Trudeau would love it. Sounds neat eh?

Canada 150

A red-hot gem! This cake is the best combination of personality and taste. Featuring white chocolate drizzle, white chocolate bark, macarons, pretzels and caramel popcorn, the Canada 150 cake is guaranteed to bring the flavour to Canada’s birthday.

Oh Canada

Our Perfect Disaster Cake takes on a Canadian twist! Chocolate drizzle and fondant maple leafs cover the exterior of this cake with our classic Canadian expression of “EH” acting as the cake’s centrepiece. Topped with macarons, cookies, pretzels and caramel popcorn for the sweetest birthday treat!

 

We will be featuring a few Canada Day cakes in our shop over the weekend. Feel free to stop in and take a look! We would love to help you celebrate our country’s milestone. We are located at 1006 Dundas Street West across from Trinity Bellwoods Park.

Happy Canada Day, Toronto!

-Nathan & Team Le Dolci

We’ve been open for business in Toronto for six years! With all the love and support we have received regarding our cakes, classes and staff, we couldn’t be happier with where we are today!

To celebrate, we got a brand new window display designed and painted by our friend Lynzie Kent & her fab sidekick Tanisha! The display features a white number 6 with rainbows streaming from the top and bottom. The inside window features shiny gifts on our table surrounded by our cake displays and floating party hats hanging from the ceiling!

This past weekend we also created a GIANT unicorn made out of balloons with the help from our friends at Balloon Bar TO. Complete with a golden horn and black eye lash, this stunning masterpiece was a sight to behold. From rainbow windows and giant balloon-icorns, our 6th birthday celebration was a hit! It was also PRIDE weekend so we hope we spread an extra amount of rainbow love to the city.

Come by and see our displays while they’re still here and celebrate with us! We are located at 1006 Dundas Street West across from Trinity Bellwoods Park.

BIRTHDAY SALE! Use the hashtag #SixInTheSix for a chance to be featured on our Instagram page! We hope you love the celebration window as much as we do.
