Rip & Dip Bagels Are Coming to Winnipeg
Mark your calendars, Winnipeg— Saturday, March 14th is about to get a whole lot sweeter. For one day only, our flagship shop at 580 Academy Road will host the Rip & Dip Dessert Bagel Pop-Up, a limited-edition collaboration between The Forge Bagel Co. and Jenna Rae Cakes.
Think a playful, indulgent, and totally Instagram-worthy experience inspired by New York–style Pop-Up Bagel that has taken the world by the sweetest storm.
Why We Chose The Forge Bagel Co.
There are a lot of bagels out there, but our collaboration is all about quality first. We chose The Forge Bagel Co because their attention to detail, wholesome ingredients, and dedication to flavour make every bite exceptional. Their bagels are a Polishire bagel that uses a traditional poke & stretch method to deliver a creamy chew with a touch of brioche-like softness— perfect for pairing with our dessert dips.
This partnership is about more than bringing something fun and unique to Winnipeg! It’s about bringing together two brands that care deeply about craftsmanship and taste.
Meet the Dessert Bagel Lineup
Each combo features a freshly baked bagel from The Forge Bagel Co, paired with one of our decadent Whipped Dessert Dips, served in a colourful JRC cookie dough cup. Every dip is light, airy, ultra-dippable, and layered with flavour and texture so every bagel dip is extra decadent.
🍌 Salty Banana Bread
🥯 Banana Bread w/ Chocolate Chip Bagel, finished with Maldon salt
🍥 Whipped Salted Caramel Dessert Dip — a creamy whipped salted caramel cream cheese, folded with thick ribbons of salted caramel and a drizzle of salted caramel on top.
🎂 Birthday Cake
🥯 Confetti Cake (TBC) Bagel
