The Sunshine Doughnut Company is guaranteed to make your day brighter, with a bit of sunshine and sweetness. Started by the same legendary Burlington restauranteurs who launched Son Of A Peach Pizzeria, Sunshine Doughnuts has that same stylish and balanced execution.

Like most doughnut shops, The Sunshine Doughnut Company has classic doughnuts available all-day, every day, as well as special seasonal doughnuts. Their lineup of classics include Original Glazed, Pink Sprinkles, Chocolate Sprinkles, Lemony Lemon, Dulce de Leche, Burly Cream, Apple Fritters, and Sugar twists.

Each weekend, the selection of doughnuts changes, with new flavours and seasonal options. It gives you a good reason to keep coming back… one day you’ll walk in and find yourself a cream-filled Piña Colada doughnut, as shown in the picture above, and the next you’ll find a Raspberry Poptart doughnut, as shown in the picture below.

Sunshine has become so popular, in part because they come up with the most inventive flavours, perfectly suited to the four seasons. In the spring, they have a Rainbow Sunshine Donut perfect for a weather, and a mood, change. During summer, their cozy apple fritters turn into refreshing blueberry-lemon fritters.

In the fall, there are a ton of imaginative ideas are created for Halloween. Their Caramel Pumpkin flavour really captures the taste of the brisk autumn season. In the winter, try out a cozy S’mores Cream Doughnut. Their sweet selection changes every time you walk in the store, so it’s incredibly exciting to see which flavour will be the next to bring a little sunshine into your life.

Maverick’s Donut company is a charming donut shop in Downtown Oakville. Their donuts are made in-house and from scratch in their back kitchen. Donuts can be bought individually or in boxes of 6. If you’re looking for a sweet treat, this is a great place to check out.

There sure is something sweet about this Kerr Village confectionary – and it all started in a tiny home kitchen. In 2007, Erin Harris was baking everything from simple birthday cakes to feed five people, to elaborate tiered confections for hundreds. As the business grew, so did the need for more space. And in 2028, Erin and her husband, Scott, opened The Sweetest Thing’s flagship location in Kerr Village.

While Erin is still creating specialty cakes, her menu also includes a large selection of cookies, cupcakes, soft serve ice cream, and desserts (all showcased beautifully at their front counter). Customer’s love their seasonal offerings, hot drinks, and delicious take home treats. Open 6 days a week, The Sweetest Thing is the spot to fulfill a craving.
