There’s something about doughnuts that just feels like home and for the woman behind Sprinkles Mini Doughnuts, that feeling is more than nostalgia. It’s part of her story.
This week on Fondy Famous, we’re shining the spotlight on Sprinkles Mini Doughnuts, a bite-sized treat with a big heart (and even bigger flavor). These colorful, festive little doughnuts are quickly becoming a local favorite at farmers’ markets and events across the Fond du Lac area. And it all started with a memory.
Growing up, she spent Sunday mornings baking in her grandparents’ grocery store kitchen. The smell of fresh dough, the frosting, the sprinkles was more than a weekly tradition. It was quality time, and it left a lasting impression. While they never made mini doughnuts back then, those early mornings would eventually become the foundation for something sweet and new.
Fast forward to today, and she’s making magic with mini doughnuts. And get this she figured it out in just two weeks. That’s right. Armed with determination and a whole lot of heart, she took her childhood love of baking and turned it into a fully operating mobile doughnut biz. The result? A bite-sized treat that makes people smile, one sprinkle at a time.
What makes Sprinkles Mini Doughnuts so special (aside from how fun they are to eat) is that each one comes with a little bit of family history and a whole lot of local love. They’re a throwback to simpler times when baking was a way to connect, create, and bring people together.
So whether you’re catching them at a summer market, a community festival, or scrolling through their sweet photos online know that behind every mini doughnut is a story of grit, joy, and deep Wisconsin roots.
We were lucky enough to have Sprinkles Mini Doughnuts as our very first in-studio feature here at Fondy Famous. And let me tell you it smelled just as amazing as it sounds.
Follow along as this local business continues to grow and sprinkle a little happiness wherever they go. Because here in Fond du Lac, it’s the small things like a mini doughnut and a big dream that leave the biggest impact.
