Mix. Chill. Enjoy.

Party-ready dip in five minutes flat.

Every mix is measured for one batch. Nothing to weigh, nothing to guess, nothing artificial.

1

Open a pack

Herbs, spices and vegetables, dried and blended by hand in Glenora, Manitoba.

2

Add sour cream and mayo

One cup of each for most flavours. A few use cream cheese, and the fruit dip takes vanilla yogurt.

3

Chill and serve

Two hours in the fridge lets the flavour bloom, and overnight is even better. Then bring out the chips, crackers and veggies.

Meet Patti

Born an entrepreneur, back at the market.

Patti first launched Patti Cakes in 1990, and her passion for gourmet food and market days grew from there. After selling the business in 2020, she realised how much she missed the people, the chatter across the table, and making something delicious by hand.

In May 2024 she bought Tasty Tidbits and brought that love of flavour back to the market scene. Every mix is still blended in small batches with quality ingredients, and every packet still gets packed by Patti.

Thanks for supporting local. Patti
