Le Dolci Bakery

After being laid off from her job and getting excited for her friend Deepika’s wedding Lisa decided she would make the wedding cake! With no experience Lisa delved into the cake world going to cake shows across the UK –she lugged home a suitcase of cake supplies from Manchester, and testing out recipes and making lots of treats for neighbours who could hear her baking in her tiny oven ‘til midnight. At the wedding, Lisa was asked if she had a business and she said, YES! Eek, she didn’t, but this is how her journey started. She got some international press for her Cake Box of the Week and started teaching cupcake decorating classes at her friend Clara’s little Italian café in Notting Hill and voilà her business was born. She moved back to Canada and in 2011 and moved into her first retail space on Dundas West, with a beautiful view of Trinity Bellwoods Park. Between those cosy brick walls Lisa & her team taught classes each weekend and sold beautiful cakes and cupcakes.
