Delicious layered doughnuts, really amazing approach to use light fluffy puff pastry with fillings and great flavors. They don't leave that heavy feeling and are very satisfying.

Awesome decadent delights, as expected. They are way too large and unbitable. Two of us shared 6 items. Neither of us were able to take a full height bite. We resorted to cutting them into smaller pieces or nibbling them at awkward angles that resulted in toppings falling off. A bit too pricey. It would seem that reducing the size to be bite-friendly, would also reduce production cost, and perhaps make it possible lower the per unit retail price. I realize there could be other realities in the retail doughnut trade that don't make price reduction as simple a reducing unit size. As periodic decadent treat, I would prefer an easily bitable product regardless of the cost.

Love these donuts, great service!

A delicious delight in Orleans! Note: These are not traditional donuts- more like a cruffin or a croissant with flaky layers.

I tried this pastry shop for an anniversary treat. This “donut” shop has fresh pastries with hi when flavours. I went 10 minutes to closing so the donuts were 6/ 28$ instead of the regular price of 35$. Bonus savings!
I was pleasantly greeted by the gentleman that worked there, and he took the time to explain the flavours/fillings/ non filling options.
Definitely a treat worth trying for special occasions or a pick me up.

I’ll be back!

I’ve always loved donuts and beignets, and Holey Confections Orleans hits the perfect sweet spot between the two. Their donuts are more like beignets—super fluffy, light, and not oily at all. If you’re a fan of Mr. Puffs, imagine a fluffier, cleaner version with even better texture. Compared to Lokma, these are way less greasy and way more satisfying.

The outside has a nice flaky crunch, and the inside is unbelievably soft and airy. I used to think Suzy Q and Maverick Donuts were the best in Ottawa, but Holey Confections has officially raised the bar.

Each donut is $5.80, which might sound a bit pricey at first, but they’re almost twice as thick as a Suzy Q donut, and much more generous with icing and toppings. The flavours are just as fun and creative, but the quality and portion feel like a serious upgrade.

The shop itself is super clean and welcoming, and the gentleman at the counter is incredibly friendly and helpful. Orleans is really lucky to have a local spot offering this kind of quality.

Highly recommend checking them out—you won’t be disappointed!

The cronut was okay. A bit pricey, very dry, and overly sweet, though to be fair I came later in the day, so the fresh stock was already gone. On the bright side, the staff were friendly and helpful, which made the visit pleasant.

Went in for the first time Thursday afternoon to pick up dessert to bring to friends. The man working was very rude and unprofessional. He was discourteous, outright insulted me and even laughed at my very reasonable requests. Although the donuts were very delicious I would NEVER accept such disrespect again.
