Parfait Cakes are single serve cakes from Crema House in Ottawa, made in our own pasticceria. Each one is a small cake meant for one person, so it can be taken on its own with a coffee from the caffè. There are two flavours to choose from. Caramel Pistachio is built around caramel and pistachio, and Dubai Chocolate is built around chocolate in the Dubai style. Both flavours are priced the same. Because pistachio is part of the cakes, they contain nuts. We keep the description simple because the flavours are the point: pick the one that suits you, and ask at the counter if you would like to know more.
