Our Story

Born From a Sweet Idea. Built Into a National Brand.

What started as Cinnamini Donuts at the Philadelphia Premium Outlets has grown into a nationwide franchise with 140+ locations across 25+ states. DonutNV is more than a donut business - it's an experience people seek out, share online, and book again and again.

Founders Amanda and Alex Gingold built DonutNV on a simple belief: fresh, interactive, fun food wins every time. They spent 12+ years perfecting the model so you don't have to. You get a turnkey system, a beloved brand, and two founders genuinely invested in your success.

Flat Royalty. Not a Percentage.

Most food franchises take 5-8% of your gross sales forever. DonutNV charges a flat $750/month. The more you earn, the more you keep. That's a fundamental difference in how your business scales.

Made Fresh On-Site

Guests watch donuts made right in front of them. The experience IS the product.

Mobile and Flexible

No fixed lease, no landlord. Go where the business is.

Weddings and Events

High-ticket bookings that fill your calendar fast and repeat every season.

Scale to Multi-Unit

Top franchisees run multiple units and territories. Built to grow with you.

Community Impact

DonutNV raised $330K+ for local organizations in 2025 alone.

Full Playbook

Proven scripts, marketing templates, and ops manuals from day one.
