Description

We are looking for a well experienced “Chef De Partie” for The Food Dudes Inc. located at 24 Carlaw Ave Toronto, ON M4M 2R7, Canada.

 

No. of position: 02

Tasks and Responsibilities:

 

  • Plan, lead, and execute daily pastry production (viennoiserie, entremets, plated desserts, celebration cakes) with flawless timing, taste, and presentation.

  • Design seasonal dessert menus and chef’s specials; engineer recipes and costings to hit margin and waste targets.

  • Customize and Innovate new pastry desserts (nut-free, eggless, gelatin-free, gluten-aware, vegan) with validated cross-contact controls and document gold-standard specs/SOPs.

  • Create emergency contingencies (ingredient swaps, partial bakes, décor alternates) to protect service during supply or equipment disruptions.

  • Build master production plans for holidays and events (Valentine’s, Mother’s Day, weddings), including pre-orders, pickups, and last-mile plating guides.

  • Standardize finishing techniques (tempering curves, glazing viscosity, mousse aeration, lamination turns) and lock in visual brand standards.

  • Lead, schedule, and mentor pastry cooks/assistants; run mise en place checks and pre-service tastings for consistency.

  • Enforce Ontario food-safety, sanitation, allergen-control, and temperature-log practices (HACCP-style) across prep, service, and display.

  • Optimize inventory and yields (FIFO, batch planning, blast-chill/cool-down logs) to reduce waste and protect food cost.

  • Guard quality at every pass: portion control, finish standards, freshness rotation, and impeccable plating.

  • Build a pastry “mise kit” for the pass (garnishes, sauces, quenelles, micro-herbs) to accelerate plate-up during peak fire times.

  • Forecast, requisition, and receive pastry ingredients; set pars for dairy, chocolate, purées, and yeasted doughs; reconcile delivery variances. 

  • Maintain and calibrate ovens, mixers, sheeters, thermometers, and blast chillers; coordinate repairs to minimize downtime.
