Japanese Fluffy Pancake in Toronto?

Plenty of people in Toronto search for a Japanese fluffy pancake — those tall, jiggly, cloud-like stacks you have seen wobble on camera. A fluffy pancake (also called a Japanese soufflé pancake) is made by whipping egg whites into a meringue, folding them into a light batter, and cooking the stacks low and slow in a ring so they rise into a thick, airy, melt-in-your-mouth pancake, usually served hot with butter, syrup or cream.

So let us be upfront, because honesty matters: 6 Cloud does not sell hot fluffy soufflé pancakes. We are not a pancake griddle café. If a stack of hot soufflé pancakes is exactly what you are after, we would rather tell you straight than have you walk in expecting something we do not make.

Here is the good news. We are obsessed with the same fluffy Japanese soufflé at the heart of that pancake — and we built our whole signature around it.

If you came searching for a soufflé pancake in Toronto or a fluffy Japanese pancake in North York, give the cream sando a try — most people tell us it scratches exactly the itch they had, and it travels far better than a hot pancake ever could. You can eat it on the move, pop it in a 2-pack to share, or order a box for a group.

We make them fresh every day at both Toronto shops. Visit Midtown Toronto on Yonge Street, or Yonge & Finch in North York. Open Mon–Thu 12–8pm, Fri–Sun 12–9pm. Browse the full menu, and while you are at it, cool off with our gelato or dairy-free sorbet.
