About The Mini Donut Company

How It Started…

What’s one of the biggest things The Mini Donut Company founder Matt Whiffen learned from his corporate background? Everyone loves donuts! But no one wanted to be "that person" in the office who takes an entire donut. Lightbulb moment: If mini-sized, no more splitting – everyone in the office can take two or three!

Thus, The Mini Donut Company was born. What started in Seattle back in 2019 as a delivery-only business catering to offices is now a full-fledged mini donut company serving all of San Diego.

…How It’s Going

The Mini Donut Company opened our first location in San Diego’s Liberty Public Market. A second location quickly followed suit, at the Little Italy Food Hall, and we now have a third location at the Windmill Food Hall in Carlsbad.

With more locations on the horizon, we’re excited to spread the mini donut love!

Mad Love for Minis

Biting into the little pillows of delight was an experience! They were warm, soft, and fresh. You know they prepared these with so much care. But the taste! OMG, they were so good. Just the right amount if sweet. Not gimmicky or pretentious. If I was by myself, I probably could have eaten them all in one sitting.
