Perfected by a husband and wife duo, Samantha Armstrong and her spouse Tyler created an epic gourmet donut like no other.
After discovering a unique donut concept in Nashville, Tyler and Sam were inspired to create their own version. It was during COVID that Tyler brought the idea forward to Sam, and the couple decided to pursue it. Despite having no culinary experience, the couple dedicated months to perfecting their 140-layer donut before launching it on social media. Fast forward 4 years later, Holey Confections can now be found at 3 locations across Ottawa and the couple even struck a Dragon's Den deal in early 2024!
