About Us
Dipped Donuts is a Toronto-based specialty donut shop known for creative, scratch-made product and bold flavour combinations. We take our craft seriously — and we're looking for someone who does too.
If you love the craft of making great donuts AND get excited dreaming up what's next — this role was built for you.
The Opportunity
We're looking for a skilled pastry chef to join us 3 days a week — 2 days running donut production and 1 day dedicated to flavour development, recipe testing, and training our team on new products. You'll have real creative ownership over what goes in our case each month, while also being hands-on in the kitchen keeping production tight. right now this is a Parttime Position but can move to a Full time one.
What You'll Be Doing
- Running donut production 2 days per week — Making dough, cutting, frying, finishing — to our quality standards
- Dedicating 1 day per week to flavour R&D — developing, testing, and refining our monthly lineup
- Bringing fresh flavour ideas to the table each month — seasonal concepts, creative pairings, limited releases - ideas will have to be done 1 month in advance (e.g. something for September will need to be figured out in July)
- Training kitchen staff on new products, prep techniques, and quality standards when new flavours launch
- Collaborating directly with the owner on menu direction and special releases
- Troubleshooting production issues and helping maintain kitchen consistency
What We're Looking For
- 2+ years experience in a pastry kitchen, production bakery, or specialty baked goods environment
- Comfortable running a full production shift independently from start to finish
- A genuine creative streak — you have flavour ideas and aren't shy about pitching them
- Experience developing and testing recipes in a professional setting
- Reliable, hardworking, and solutions-oriented when things go sideways
- Available to start within the next 2–3 weeks
Nice to Have
- Pastry arts diploma or culinary school background (George Brown, Centennial, etc.)
- Experience in a donut shop or high-volume bakery
- An Instagram or portfolio of past pastry or flavour work
- Food handlers Certificate
The Details
- 3 days per week (2 production shifts + 1 R&D/training day)
- Shifts are approximately 8–10 hours
- $2,500–$3,000/month based on experience
- Based at our Toronto kitchen
