EAST BEND, NC – Donut Shark is preparing to soft open by the end of May at 425 NC 67 hwy, East Bend, NC 27018 in East Bend, owner Jason Lassen shared with Business Debut.

Lassen said the mobile donut business will be regularly stationed in East Bend during the week, while also traveling to events and farmers markets on weekends. The plan is for Donut Shark to be fully open daily in East Bend by mid-July.

What to Expect

Donut Shark will focus on artistic, over-the-top donuts, with a menu built around raised donuts, cake donuts, gluten-free donuts, keto donuts, coffee, iced coffee, cold brew, and cinnamon rolls.

The business is also connected to Sweet Dane’s Farm, which Lassen and his family own. Lassen said many of the fruits and related ingredients used by Donut Shark will come from the farm.

Where It Will Be

During the week, Donut Shark plans to operate from a regular spot in front of Queen Bee Piercing & Tattoo in East Bend, which is owned by Lassen’s wife.

Lassen said the location sits along a main roadway into Winston-Salem, giving Donut Shark a chance to serve morning commuters.

On weekends, the business plans to move around to shows, events, farmers markets, and similar gatherings.

Hours and Opening Timeline

Lassen said he plans to operate six days a week, with regular weekday hours in East Bend expected to run from about 5:30 am until noon.

Weekend hours will depend on the events Donut Shark attends.
