“We have always been looking for something to take our lives to the next level and when we found Yonutz, we just knew it was it.” says the store owner and operator Jaimie Okeefe, local Farmington resident and mother of 3. Her husband and veteran Chad adds “Once she told me this is what she wanted to do, I just knew I had to support her in achieving her dreams.” Yonutz Farmington officially opened at the beginning of April to help work through supply chain shortages and provide adequate training for their staff in preparation for this month’s grand opening celebrations.
Upon entering Yonutz, guests will be transported into a whimsical dessert wonderland featuring an Instagram able photo wall with a neon ‘SMASHED THE ORDINARY’ sign. “By creating such an inviting and immersive atmosphere, coupled with our focus on making sure every fan that walks through our doors is taken on the ‘experience tour’ in preparation for indulging in our one-of-a-kind products, like the SMASHED Donut, is what truly sets us apart, you can see it in their faces.” says Matthew Dickerson, Jaimie and Chad’s business partner and Yonutz Master Franchisee for the Utah region.
Yonutz’s menu features items such as their original and signature Nutella Crunch SMASHED Donut, a fluffy donut stuffed with cookie dough ice cream, smashed with a hot-pressed, topped with Oreos, butter crunch, and Nutella drizzle. The dessert rush does not end there. Yonutz’s Farmington location is the first to offer a front row seat to watch as one of their skilled employees makes your SMASHED donut creation in front of your very eyes. They are also the first to roll out Yonutz’s new “Create Your Own” menu, allowing fans to create their own SMASHED creations with thousands of different delicious combinations. This creative franchise has also caught the attention of now Yonutz Partner, Kevin Harrington, an original “Shark” from NBC’s hit show, “Shark Tank.”
