FAQ
Donut cart and catering questions
Quick answers about setup, weather, booking, delivery, allergies and more.
On-site events
What is a live donut cart?
We bring a donut cart with a working fryer to your event and make the donuts fresh while your guests watch.
What does the donut cart need to set up?
We bring everything: all of the equipment, the team to run it, and our own generators to power it. All we need is an outdoor spot, such as a patio, lawn, driveway or courtyard, because frying has to be done outdoors for ventilation. Tell us about your venue in your quote request and we will confirm the space.
What happens if the weather is bad on the day of my event?
We can typically work in light rain, and we bring a tent so we are covered. In the event of inclement weather, we are happy to issue a refund with advance notice. If we know a few days ahead, we are happy to cancel for that event.
Can you make mini donuts?
Yes, we can do mini donuts for on-site events. They are served with your choice of toppings, including whipped cream and syrup.
Do you add coffee to events?
We have a separate barista cart with lattes, specialty coffee and hot cocoa. It is an optional add-on that we quote with your event.
Booking, delivery and orders
How do I book, and how far ahead should I ask?
Send a quote request with your date, location and estimated guest count. We confirm availability, discuss the setup and send you a quote. We do get booked up ahead of time, so the earlier you book, the better.
Do you deliver donuts, and is there a minimum?
Yes. Delivery orders start at 3 dozen. Classic flavors are $20 per dozen and premium flavors are $25 per dozen. Delivery charges, if any, are confirmed in your quote.
Can you make custom donuts?
Yes. We can do custom flavors, colors, and shapes or letters. Tell us what you have in mind in your quote request and we will confirm what is possible and the price.
What about allergies?
We can let you know which allergens are in each donut, and none of our donuts contain nuts. Please tell us about any allergies in your quote request so we can advise you before you book.
About Dad's Donuts
Do you have a storefront?
No, we don't sell out of a retail store. We do have a commercial kitchen space in Port Chester, but we don't sell via storefront. We bring everything to you and serve events, deliveries, wholesale customers and fundraisers.
Do you run donut fundraisers for schools and groups?
Yes. Your school or community group can earn a percentage of sales, or students can sell with a sign-up sheet. We confirm how the proceeds are shared before you start.
Do you sell donuts wholesale?
Yes, to cafés, bakeries and markets. Tell us what you sell and how often you want deliveries and we will put together a wholesale plan.
