Best Cake for Delivery in Toronto?
January 18, 2022 7:47 AM

Very straightforward question here. I want to send someone in Toronto a delicious cake today. (I am in the US.) They live in the Harbourfront, if that matters. Hit me with your cake concepts. Thanks!

Due to the snow, hardly any type of delivery is active today. But for when cars may car properly again in a day or two, I recommend Cake Loft! They're the decadent cake of choice in my household and we live right next to Dufflet Cakes, one of the more famous local cake bakeries.

I was going to recommend Dufflet, Bobbette and Belle, or Nadege, but now I want a Cake Loft cake, those look gorgeous.

Same day cake delivery in Toronto can be really hard. You may want to go with Instacart and a grocery store.

Dufflet’s is reliable and uses only good / real ingredients. I agree that (given the recent blizzard) your best bet is to look for a supermarket that carries their cakes (Loblaws is a good bet) and do Instacart.

Agree that "same day cake delivery" is going to be a grocery store/supermarket thing; how fancy were you hoping to go? (My admittedly non-Toronto experience of trying to get a fancy bakery cake delivered, even a small one, was a minimum lead time of 48-72 hours.)

Thanks for the dose of reality. I was unaware of the current Snowmageddon, actually. Definitely will be recalibrating my expectations about same-day delivery. Great choices here though!

You can use Uber Eats to deliver cake same-day quite easily in Toronto! Someone sent me one on my birthday and I was so delighted that sending them a cake is now my go-to bday present for pals during the pandemic.
