Holey Confections

Holey Confections: Ottawa’s One-of-a-Kind Donut Shop

Holey Confections isn’t just any donut shop. With three locations across Ottawa — one in Orleans, one in Barrhaven, and another in Carleton Place — this family-owned business has redefined what a donut can be. Each of their donuts is crafted from 140 decadent layers, making every bite an unforgettable experience. Their unique creations, like the “Peanut Butter Munchkin” and “Cookies n’ Dream,” cater to every sweet tooth. Plus, every glaze is made from scratch with locally sourced ingredients, ensuring a fresh and authentic taste. And for those with dietary preferences, Holey Confections even offers some vegan flavors, proving there’s truly something for everyone.

 #DietStartsTomorrow: Embrace the Sweetness of Life

The shop’s playful slogan, “#Dietstartstomorrow,” speaks to a belief that indulgence is a part of balanced living. At Holey Confections, they’re challenging the notion that we need to restrict desserts, carbs, and sweets. Instead, they encourage everyone to live a little — because life’s too short to skip dessert. The shop’s motto is more than a cheeky hashtag; it’s a reminder to embrace life’s sweetness without guilt. 

Custom Donuts & Event Catering

Looking to customize an order or cater an event? Holey Confections’ Barrhaven location offers customization options to bring your vision to life. Whether you want donuts branded to match your business logo or an event theme, they’ve got you covered! For larger orders, Holey Confections even offers bulk discounts, making it easy and affordable to add a special touch to your next event with donuts that are as unique as they are delicious.

From Hard Times to Dream Donuts

Holey Confections was born out of resilience. Like many others, the family behind this shop was laid off from their “regular” jobs during COVID-19. Rather than giving up, they turned their passion into a business, creating a community around their love for unique, artisanal donuts. Every customer and referral keeps their dream alive, supporting a small business that began with hope, creativity, and a love for delicious confections.
