Dulcinella

Tres Leches cake was amazing! It was moist, very flavorful, and had everyone going back for seconds!

I messaged Dulcinella on Instagram with questions about pre-ordering a birthday cake and they were so helpful and friendly! Ended up ordering a tres leches one day in advance over the phone. Needed to pay 50% deposit upfront when I placed the order, which was fine. Pick up was smooth. The cake is quite moist - need to be careful when transiting otherwise it might leak a bit.

Definitely coming back here to try more!

I highly recommend Dulcinella. Heaven in every bite of their Venezuelan-style Tres Leches Cake. Their Dulce de Leche Cheesecake is also a must-try. As someone from the Philippines which was also a colony of Spain for more than 3 centuries, Dulcinella reminds me of the food culture we have back home which we share with Latin American countries such as flan and empanada. You gotta try Dulcinella and you won't regret it! The seller is also accommodating and approachable. Here are the photos I took from my visit earlier:

Super friendly staff! Blueberry cheesecake had great texture and not too sweet. First time trying alfajores and what a treat - would recommend. Initially, they were all out of empanadas but the staff kindly offered to make some fresh ones for us and WOW the filling had so much flavour. Our new favourite spot in the east end 😄

Ordered via phone. Called twice, and both times the staff were pleasant. They were patient with all my questions and took time to inform me of their product. Bought the tres leches and it was delicious. Although a little too sweet for me, it was addictive and a crowd-pleaser. I made sure to take a picture because I couldn’t seem to find any on Google last time I checked. I got the small tray, and it serves around 6-8 people. It tastes like a leche flan with the texture of a tiramisu. A little pricey (about $60), but I thought it was still worth it. If you need to bring dessert to a potluck or party, I would recommend their tres leches.

Ordered the tres leches for a birthday party and it was absolutely delicious. It had the right level of moist for ppl with sweet tooth and not too much of a sweet tooth. Everyone loved it and was sure to plug the name. Had delivery issues initially but they were prompt in figuring an alternative. Will be ordering again!

Yesterday we were celebrating the baby shower of our first son I would like to thank Dulcinella who made the best cake I have ever seen in my life just as I dreamed of it with every detail and the preparation that truly surprised me was without a doubt what best of the party. do not hesitate to make your cake with them they are the best
100% I recommend them both in the flavor of the cake and in the creativity and details and the elaboration of the fondants.

This small Venezuelan bakery has big verve and vibrancy. My wife and I dropped in one day, and were welcomed by the kindest people. While I think Dulcinella is known most for its custom cakes, they have a bunch of sweet and savoury treats on hand.
- Sweets: Oooh these definitely pleased my sweet tooth. The tres leches mini cake was heavily and heavenly milky. The vegan chocolate cupcake was super moist with a really dense chocolate icing. The shortbread cookies were delicate and paired just perfectly when dipped in Dulcinella's OUTSTANDING homemade dulche de leche. And the chocolate loaf we brought home was again really moist with a rich balance of dark and white chocolate.
- Savoury: Tequenos for the win! They were properly fried, not overly oily, and stuffed with cheeeeeeeeeese. The beef empanada we brought home was just as stuffed as well.

Though Dulcinella does have 2 bar sears and a couple of sidewalk tables, think it's mainly a grab-and-go place. That said, it's really near the beaches, so make sure to stop by for a treat to enjoy by the water (or anywhere really!)
