Sunshine Donuts is a community delight for locals and visitors alike who want a great-tasting donut served with a smile and light conversation. This welcoming donut shop has been winning the hearts and taste buds of the community since it opened back in 2004. Offering a delightful array of delicious treats that are sure to brighten anyone's day, this has been my go-to since I was a kid. Located at 2681 Geer Road here in Turlock, it is only nine minutes from Turlock Self Storage so next time you pop in to load or unload your unit make sure you spare us a donut.
The Warm Welcome
From the moment you step through the door, Sunshine Donuts welcomes you with the inviting aroma of freshly baked donuts and a warm, friendly atmosphere. The cozy interior, adorned with donut decor, creates the perfect setting for a delightful experience. Whether you're a regular or a first-time visitor, the staff at Sunshine Donuts go above and beyond to make you feel like part of the family.
Being a family-owned shop, I've personally grown up with the owner's son so they've always felt like family to me and my friends. They are and have been the go-to place after church on Sundays. I remember going there almost every Sunday as a kid and they always greeted me as if they were one of my aunts or uncles. I think this is the same interaction shared with more customers, not just me.
Diverse and Delicious Selection
Sunshine Donuts takes pride in offering a diverse selection of donuts that cater to all tastes and allergy restrictions. From classic glazed and old-fashioned to innovative and creative flavors, there's something for everyone. Whether you're a fan of traditional flavors or eager to try something new, Sunshine Donuts has you covered. My favorite has to be their puffed chocolate-covered donut with sprinkles on top but a close second would have to be their old fashion glazed. It's a little denser than most shops but that's how I like mine.
Signature Creations
What sets Sunshine Donuts apart are their signature creations that showcase the skill and imagination of their bakers. They've recently added to their box of delights, is their take on Mochi Donuts which are a new style of donuts for us here in the Central Valley. Mochi donuts are a fusion pastry that is crossed with both the traditional American donut and the soft and chewy Japanese dessert, mochi. They use a hybrid batter that makes their donuts moist, fluffy, and very satisfying. Sunshine Donuts has different types such as cookies & creme, sprinkles, glaze, and of course chocolate.
Community Engagement
Beyond being a haven for donut enthusiasts, Sunshine Donuts actively engages with the local community. They were recently voted Neighborhood Fave on the Nextdoor app for this previous year. From sponsoring local events to supporting charitable causes, the establishment strives to give back and make a positive impact. The sense of community at Sunshine Donuts extends beyond the glazed and sprinkled delights, creating a warm and inclusive space for everyone. There is a group of older customers that come in from time to time and if you were to ask them, they would all tell you the same thing that this is like a second home and this is so much more than just a donut shop.
Turlock Self Storage
Sunshine Donuts stands as a testament to the power of delicious treats and a strong community connection.

I think one of my favorite things is when I open my pink box and notice a few extra donuts that were tossed into my box before they tapped it closed. They don’t have to do that but it's the little things like that that keep me coming back. Almost an equally awesome deal is our current Fall Special, which includes 50% off your unit for the first three months! There are a lot of great sizes to come look at and I’d say this might be the best time to get a unit, the discount won't last forever!
