    I visited this place many a few times on weekends during COVID-19 pandemic, but it had a huge lineup every time. Finally I decided to go in the middle of the week and I'm really glad I did. I bought "PB Banana Pie", "Cookie + Cream Cheesecake", "Blood Orange Mimosa" and "Blueberry Fritter". They all tasted great, but my favorite was Cookie & Cream Cheesecake.

    Not bad. ... They get you with the cuteness. Everything is super cute and Instagram ready lol. I visited on a Friday around noon. The flavours were boring I didn't care to try any of them but since I drove so far I settled with the tea cookie, coconut lime, lemon and the og. My largest NEGATIVE is the glaze. The glaze is incredibly messy as soon as you bite into it it all crumbles everywhere and falls off the donut I will say it's the perfect texture fluffy and not to doughy. All the flavours were on the light side wish it was richer in flavours especially when you are spending $3.20-5.00 per donut!

    I thought they were just okay. I've Defs had better. I do still prefer Daddy O Doughnuts. We came on a Thursday afternoon and there were just 2 individuals ahead of us. Their front and side entrance make it really easy to social distance, as you can only enter from one side and exit out the other door. There is a limit of 2 groups inside at a time, 3 people max per group. We decided to get an Elvis, Pink Sprinkles and raspberry cheesecake. My bf liked the raspberry the best. I do appreciate that the icing is infused with real raspberries. I know this because I even got some seeds stuck in my teeth =p it had that sweet/tart after taste of a raspberry but I wasn't getting any "cheesecake" vibes? I thought maybe the donut was filled with cream cheese or something. ??? it wasn't. The pink sprinkles was just ok. It didn't really have anything special about it. I appreciate how soft and chewy the dough was but that's pretty much the highlight. Nice donut to judge texture of the dough, though. Ha ha The Elvis was probably my fave BUT I could've done without the banana bread sprinkle on top. I also appreciate what they were going for here but sometimes less is more. It was a whole chocolate banana peanut butter vibe but I just wanted to focus on the donut and chocolate peanut butter flavour. Lately, I am loving peanut butter donuts, so I would've been ok with just this and letting that flavour shine. The donuts here are hellllla expensive because they are individually priced. Like I saw the Apple fritter was a whopping $5. To be fair, it's pretty huge. But still, $5 for a singular donut? Nah. Just for the three donuts we got, it was already like $12 or something. Probably won't be back. I got all my basic b*tch photos with the huge donut, so I'm good.

    Everyone seems to love it here. I should start off by saying that I'm not a donut connoisseur. My cousin brought me here for my birthday since she's had a coworker absolutely rave about the donuts. The shop was bright and airy when we walked in and there was a huge pink donut mural on the wall as well as some tables and chairs to the side. Since we've never been a staff member explained to us the different flavours of donuts available that day. I decided on the Earl Grey Lavender while my cousin got the Bronte Sugar Shack. These donuts are not cheap. They start at $3 for the small ones and go to $5 for the apple fritter. My cousin and I enjoyed our donuts at a picnic table at a park. It was nice tasting the Earl Grey in the icing with the purple drizzle tasting of lavender but it was too sweet for me. I ended up having as little of the icing as possible. I'm not sure what the extra bits on top of the donut were but they were crunchy and a nice change in texture with the softness of the donut. The donut itself tasted like any other plain donut I've had before.

    Sunshine is by far one of the best Donuts I had. If your ever near the area I would highly recommend you stop by and try their donuts. Everything is made fresh every day the ingredients they use are fresh as well. When I'm out in Oakville i will always make sure to stop by to grab my donuts. I've tried many donut places and by far this is one of my favourites. They always have so many different flavours and they are so cute! Even after a day old, I do find the donuts still taste really good and not hard like a rock like most other places I've tried before.

    This was our first visit to Sunshine doughnuts. A friend had highly recommended we give it a try, so we went on Father's Day. We ordered 2 Vietnamese coffees and the Burly cream doughnut. The Vietnamese coffees were good, if a little bit sweeter and less strong than when we get them at a Vietnamese restaurant. We really enjoyed them though and would probably order them again. The Burly cream was outstanding!!! I'm not a fan of icing, so that was too sweet for me but the actual dough of the doughnut was perfection. It was yeasty, a tiny bit sweet and a tiny bit salty. The balance of flavours and textures was just right. The pastry cream was delicious too. The store was very bright, airy and extremely clean. The bathroom was also spotless. The person at the cash register was friendly and helpful. We will definitely be returning!!

    I'm by no means a sweets person- but I would never say no to a Sunshine doughnut. Have been here a few times now and favourite is apple fritter always. The doughnuts are big, never dried out- and always pack good flavour and resulting sugar rush lol I like their creativity and everyone's very friendly even when it's packed in there. They've also got drinks which are tasty too my baes: apple fritter, cinnamon sugar, chocolate cake doughnut

Duck donuts prepares their donuts to order, so you always getting a pipping fresh donut that gets glazed and topped off right in front of your eyes. We ordered a mixture of their classic and seasonal flavours: -Blueberry cheesecake -PB&J -Classic Sugared (my favourite!) -Coconut island (also my favourite) -Peach -S'mores Their flavour selection is impressive, but that's also because the donut base is the same amongst all of them, it's just the variety of toppings that changes it up. The texture of the donut is like a cake donut, BUT IT WAS SO LIGHT & FLUFFY. Pretty much will crumble and melt in your mouth! I've never had a donut texture like this! Worth a try if you're in the area :) Prepare for a decently long line up though, people generally take a while at the cash register to decide on the flavours too.

The reason is they make the donuts fresh when you order them - these are not par-baked like what the TH guys do. Duck Donuts are cake donuts - think Tiny Tom, but bigger... and oh, so many toppings! They have dozens of flavour combinations or you can make your own... dips, icings, sprinkles, even bacon! (Yes, bacon on a donut is absolutely delicious.) Of course, I have to mention the incredible staff who greet you warmly when you come in and help you choose from the slightly intimidating menu. I also love the beautiful, open, and bright space - the wall-to-ceiling windows let in lots of sun and make this an amazing place for a morning donut sandwich (yum) or a milkshake made with lots of real ice cream. They don't have online ordering at the time of this review, but I've called ahead a few times to order a "Duck Dozen" assorted box, and these make gifts for the office, or as dessert for family gatherings. They are always a big hit!

Every time I come here I find that the average demographic leans a bit older so I'd like to share with younger people especially if you like to cook with hard to find ingredients. This place is especially great if you love making Italian dishes and baked goods like me and don't want to drive all the way out towards Mississauga and spend more than anticipated at other specialty stores, or even somewhere like Fortino's where you get charged an arm and a leg for certain produce and meat. Everything here is so fresh, and I love that they sell their prepared handmade pasta at the hot table for CHEAP. I got one serving of their handmade tortellini in alfredo sauce for just $6.99 and I was able to make two meals out of it without any extra sides or drinks. I haven't tried anything else because they had already closed most of the hot table when I got the tortellini but what was still out looked really good. Their desserts are pretty good too, I prefer their cookies over their cakes as I feel I've had better elsewhere, but nonetheless have a great selection with good pricing as well. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area, I feel like even if you came in without the intention of buying something, you'll still manage to make a purchase of some sort lol.

Unfortunately 3 weeks before his party he had a really bad fall and had to be airlifted to the hospital. I called the bakery almost 12 days in advance - more than enough time before they even began prepping anything for this small party - and they refused. Well actually, the employee on the phone was extremely unhelpful to begin with and when I requested I talk to the manager they left me waiting for almost 20 minutes on hold. When I did speak with the manager, I explained the situation I believed she understood and offered me a refund. I was clear we were going to rebook the party for the summer time and I'd be sure to call on them again for the order. In the end, I never got the refund. I've emailed the bakery numerous times with no response. I was even warned it was pointless to email customer service as I would not get a response. What honest business does that? So we are going ahead with the party and I highly recommend you go with the professionals at Pusateri's or Eataly. It's been a much better more positive and honest experience from the get go.
