Our Story

Autumn’s Donuts began with a dream and a cup of coffee.

In 2016, in the small town of Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, Autumn started experimenting with donut recipes in her cafe kitchen. She mixed, fried, and glazed until she discovered a donut recipe that was exactly what she set out to make — a donut that’s comforting, satisfying, and made to pair perfectly with a great cup of coffee. Her intuition was right. Word spread quickly, and soon her donuts had a following all their own.

When life led her south to middle Tennessee, she brought the same handcrafted recipe with her, and her donuts sparked excitement once again. Starting with small batches among friends and neighbors, the response was overwhelming. Nearly 8,000 donuts were sold in the very first month — and they still sell out often.


People ask for Autumn’s Donuts by name and go out of their way to find them. Made with care and meant to be shared, they’ve become a familiar favorite wherever they show up — and they rarely last long.

Too Good Not To Share

Share Them With Your Community

Autumn’s Donuts are shared through a small and growing group of cafes, coffee shops, and community spaces that value quality and care.

As a small-batch donut maker, availability is limited. But for venues that believe great food is meant to be shared, we occasionally welcome new partners to become part of the Autumn’s Donuts story.
