Five Daughters Bakery is a family-owned bakery with six locations (Tennessee, Georgia and Florida) owned by Isaac and Stephanie Meek. Founded in 2015, the bakery is known for making donuts. They are known for making the 100-layer doughnut which takes three days to make.[1][2] The signature donut is a cross between a donut and a croissant: a cronut.[3]

Company details

The bakery was started in the couple's Franklin Tennessee home and named after the Meek family's five daughters: Dylan, Lucy, Maggie, Evangeline, and Constance. The bakery uses organic ingredients and grape seed oil for frying.[1] The company became nationally renowned for the three-inch thick 100 Layer Donut. Many celebrities have expressed their infatuation with the donut.[4][5]

In 2018, the company opened a location in Atlanta, Georgia.[6] In 2019, the company opened a second location in Georgia and several in Florida.[7][3]
