National Doughnut Day is just around the corner and there is no better way to mark the occasion on June 2 by indulging in the mouth-watering treats. If you live, work or play in Coquitlam, you probably already know the city is home to some amazing bakeries and doughnut shops, each offering a unique selection of tasty treats that are sure to satisfy any sweet tooth. Here’s why you should check them out:

  1. Support Local Businesses – By patronizing local doughnut shops, you’re supporting the local economy and helping these creative small businesses deliver the treats we love. So not only will you be indulging in some tasty treats, but you’ll also be doing your part to support your community. Here’s a few of the great options we have in Coquitlam, but let us know if we missed any on the list: Doughnut Love, Urban Gate, JJ Bean and Mochido (Coming soon in Summer 2023).
  2. Wide Variety of Flavours – Coquitlam’s local doughnut shops offer a wide variety of flavours, from classic glazed and chocolate to unique creations like coconut crème brûlée and margarita. These small shops are always creating new flavours and styles making it a must to visit them regularly.
  3. Freshly Made – One of the best things about local doughnut shops is that they make their doughnuts fresh every day. This means that you’ll always get a warm, fresh doughnut that is crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. There’s nothing quite like biting into a freshly made doughnut that’s still warm from the oven. Locals tip – go early as they often sell out before noon.
  4. Perfect for Special Occasions – Doughnuts make the perfect treat for special occasions, whether it’s a birthday party, office gathering, or just a weekend brunch with friends. If you’re in a rush – see if you can order ahead. Doughnut Love even has an online ordering option.
  5. Great for a Quick Snack – If you’re on the go and need a quick snack, doughnuts are a perfect option. They’re portable, easy to eat, and will give you a quick burst of energy to get through the day.

So, what are you waiting for? Head on over to one of Coquitlam’s local doughnut shops and treat yourself to some delicious doughnuts on National Doughnut Day. You won’t regret it!
