There’s something about Thanksgiving that always brings us back to the table.
It’s a time for gathering with family and friends, sharing favourite dishes, carrying on traditions, and, of course, saving a little extra room for dessert.
At JJ Bakes, the holidays give us another reason to create the flavours and treats we love sharing with our community. This Thanksgiving, we’re bringing a little homemade paradise to the table with seasonal desserts made for sharing.
Fall Flavours Have Arrived in Langley BC
There’s a reason we look forward to fall flavours every year.
Pumpkin, apple, cinnamon, and warm spices have a way of bringing back memories of cooler days, family gatherings, and the desserts we grew up enjoying. This season, we’re taking those familiar favourites and giving them a little JJ Bakes twist, with a fall menu filled with layers of nostalgic flavours and a few unexpected combinations.
Our Apple Pie Cupcakes brings a classic fall dessert into cupcake form. A cinnamon brown sugar cupcake is stuffed with homemade apple pie filling, topped with mascarpone cream cheese icing, and finished with a made-from-scratch apple pie cookie. It’s apple pie, cake, and cookies all wrapped into one.
For the pumpkin lovers, our Pumpkin Cupcakes goes beyond the classic pumpkin spice combination. The pumpkin spice cupcake is stuffed with both cheesecake and pumpkin pie, then topped with spiced whipped cream for a dessert that brings together a few fall favourites in every bite.
Our Turon Cupcake takes the season in a different direction, pairing a brown sugar cupcake with vanilla pudding and banana jam, finished with brown butter cream cheese icing. Turon is a popular Filipino snack traditionally made with banana wrapped in a thin spring roll wrapper, coated in sugar, and fried until golden and caramelized. Inspired by those familiar flavours, this cupcake brings a distinctly JJ Bakes twist to the fall lineup.
And there’s plenty more waiting in the bakery case. This season’s menu also includes a Dulce de Leche Malasada, Pumpkin Pie Tart, Pumpkin Cheesecake Muffin, and Gluten-Free Orange Cranberry Muffin, giving you plenty of options whether you gravitate toward pumpkin and warm spices or something a little different.
From familiar fall favourites to flavours inspired by our roots, this menu is all about celebrating the season the JJ Bakes way. Pick up something for an afternoon treat, build a box to share, or bring a selection to your Thanksgiving table, because there’s always room for something sweet.
A Little Homemade Paradise for Your Thanksgiving
Food has been part of the JJ Bakes story from the very beginning.
Growing up, our family gatherings were filled with dishes made by our mom, Jeanette. Some recipes were passed down from her grandmother, who grew up in Slovakia, while others were inspired by our dad’s Filipino culture. Those traditions and flavours helped shape the food we grew up with and, eventually, JJ Bakes itself.
For our family, food has always been about more than what’s on the table. It’s the recipes you look forward to every year, the dishes that remind you of home, and the time spent together in the kitchen and around the table. Those are the kinds of moments that continue to inspire what we create at JJ Bakes today.
Thanksgiving feels like a natural extension of that story. It’s a holiday centred around gathering, sharing food, and making time for the people who matter most. And while every family has their own traditions, there’s something special about bringing everyone together over a meal—and ending it with something sweet.
Whether you’re hosting the whole family, heading to Friendsgiving, or simply showing up with dessert in hand, we love getting to be a small part of those moments. Because for us, sharing JJ Bakes with your table means getting to share a little piece of our family’s story with yours.
Thanksgiving Dessert, Taken Care Of
We also know Thanksgiving comes with a pretty long to-do list.
Between planning dinner, preparing dishes, and getting everyone together, dessert doesn’t need to be one more thing to worry about.

Made for Your Thanksgiving Table
For us, some of the best food is the food you get to share.
A cake sliced around the table. A box of cupcakes passed between friends. A familiar flavour that brings back a favourite memory.
This Thanksgiving, we hope JJ Bakes can be a small part of the traditions and memories you’re creating around your own table.
