We’re here to remind you that taking time to enjoy yourself isn’t just a luxury—it’s essential.

THE PERFECT TIME TO INDULGE

As 2024 draws to a close, the economic outlook is growing more optimistic, and that’s especially exciting for the hospitality and dessert industries. At Drizzl’d, we’re already seeing this renewed energy in our customers over the past month who are embracing the simple joys of dining out and treating themselves to something truly delightful. We’ve been preparing for this moment, expanding our franchise opportunities and perfecting our menu, all with the goal of delivering high-quality, memorable desserts that make every visit special because our customers deserve it!

“Yeah, you deserve it!”

One of the biggest trends right now is experiential spending—a shift that’s music to our ears at Drizzl’d. Although we haven’t yet unveiled our upcoming menu changes, our customers’ excitement and requests for something new are loud and clear. After months (if not years) of restraint due to the economic issues Australia has faced this year, people are ready to indulge in those satisfying moments that feel a little extra. With our signature Hot Ball Doughnuts, churros, and inventive flavor combinations, Drizzl’d offers exactly the kind of experience customers crave—a sweet escape that feels like a “you deserve it” treat with every bite. Our artisanal, made-to-order approach is all about turning dessert into an experience.

For budding entrepreneurs, this economic upswing also marks an ideal time to consider franchising. The decision to offer franchising wasn’t a coincidence—it was a well-planned move based on economic trends we anticipated even before launching Drizzl’d in 2021. Now, as we gear up for growth in 2025, our franchise model provides an exciting chance to join a brand poised to benefit from these positive shifts. With customers increasingly drawn to unique, Instagram-worthy treats, Drizzl’d franchisees are perfectly positioned to spread the joy and bring unforgettable dessert experiences to new communities. It’s about more than just dessert; it’s about giving people a reason to indulge because, after all, they deserve it.

Whether you’re looking to satisfy a craving or invest in a rewarding business opportunity, Drizzl’d is here to make 2025 your sweetest year yet. Embrace the “you deserve it” spirit with us, and let’s create memories, one delicious bite at a time. The future looks bright, and at Drizzl’d, we’re just getting started!

WHAT’S NEXT??

At Drizzl’d, our hot ball doughnuts might go by a few different names depending on where you’re from—some call them little Greek donuts, others know them as Luqaimat, loukoumades, or loukma. But here, we simply call them ‘Hot Ball Doughnuts’. They’re a little bit traditional, a little bit innovative, but one thing’s for sure: they pack a flavour punch that’ll take you straight back to those sweet, nostalgic moments of the past.

Irresistible - you deserve it!

These aren’t your average doughnuts; they’re warm, golden bites of bliss, perfectly paired with flavours that awaken the senses. With every bite, our Hot Ball Doughnuts deliver a rush of cosy, familiar sweetness that’s as comforting as it is crave-worthy. And since day one, they’ve been stealing hearts and winning over taste buds all across the board.

But we didn’t stop there. We knew we had to keep things exciting, so we introduced more drool-worthy treats to our lineup. Enter our famous churros—crisp, sugar-dusted sticks of deliciousness, made fresh to order just like our Hot Ball Doughnuts. They’ve quickly become a fan favourite, satisfying sweet cravings with every warm, cinnamon-infused bite.

But here’s the scoop…we’re not done yet! It’s almost time to take things up a notch, to push the boundaries of flavour even further. Yep, we’re cooking up something new behind the scenes, and you won’t want to miss what’s coming next. What’s on the horizon? Let’s just say, you’ll want to be the first to know when our new menu drops. We’re tipping 2025 to be a huge year for us so we figured we may as well start sooner.

Keen for a taste? Hungry for more? Join “THE BALLERS CLUB” for exclusive first looks, sneak peeks, and a chance to be the *very first* to taste our new creations during the soft launch! Stay tuned, because something sweet and surprising is coming your way—and trust us, you’re going to want to be here when it hits!

THE FUTURE GENERATION

At Drizzl’d, we believe that investing in the future starts with engaging the youngest members of our community. Supporting school fundraisers is one of the meaningful ways we contribute to this goal. By participating in these events, we’re not only helping schools raise much-needed funds but also fostering a sense of community and responsibility among young people.

The future!

School fundraisers play a critical role in providing students with the resources they need to succeed—whether it’s new technology, sports equipment, or educational trips. These activities often rely on the generosity and involvement of local businesses, and we’re proud to be a part of that support network. By contributing to school fundraisers, Drizzl’d is helping to ensure that students have access to the tools and experiences that will shape their futures.

But our involvement goes beyond just donating raffle prizes or sponsoring events. We see these fundraisers as an opportunity to connect with the next generation and show them the importance of community involvement. When students see local businesses like Drizzl’d actively supporting their school, it sends a powerful message about the value of giving back. It also encourages them to engage in their own acts of kindness and community service as they grow.

We believe that by supporting school fundraisers, we’re helping to create a brighter future for everyone. These young people are tomorrow’s leaders, and by contributing to their education and extracurricular activities, we’re investing in the future of our community. At Drizzl’d, we’re committed to continuing our support for local schools and encouraging the next generation to take pride in their community, just as we do.

Engaging with young people today means shaping a better tomorrow, and we’re honored to play a small part in that important journey.

THE POWER OF LOCAL KNOWLEDGE

In the world of franchising, data and statistics play a crucial role in making informed decisions, but nothing can replace the deep connection a franchisee has with their local community. At Drizzl’d, we understand that while data provides a valuable framework, it’s the local knowledge and insights that truly drive success on the ground. Current and future franchisees who harness their understanding of local culture, preferences, and trends can turn statistical insights into actionable strategies that resonate with their customers.

Being local has its advantages when you're a franchisee!

We found that local knowledge gives franchisees a distinct advantage when interpreting and applying the data we provide. For example, while market research might show a growing trend towards a certain flavour pallet, a franchisee with strong community ties can work with us to refine this information with the aim to potentially offer menu options that cater specifically to the local audience. This combination of data-driven insights and local expertise ensures that the offerings are not just trendy but also relevant and appealing to the community.

Moreover, franchisees can use their community connections to validate and enhance the data. Engaging with local customers, attending community events, and partnering with local businesses and schools can provide real-time feedback that complements broader market trends. This feedback loop allows our brand to adapt quickly to changing tastes and preferences, giving them a competitive edge in their market. Remember, we’re here for the long term - we’re not interested in promoting ‘get rich quick schemes’ that you may have seen lately.

At Drizzl’d, we empower our franchisees to blend the power of data with their local knowledge to make informed, effective decisions. By doing so, they can create a more personalized and authentic customer experience, leading to stronger loyalty and sustainable growth. Ultimately, it’s this synergy between local insights and statistical analysis that helps our franchisees succeed and enables Drizzl’d to thrive across diverse markets.

WE LOVE YOUR CONTENT

In today’s digital age, user-generated content (UGC) has become a powerful tool for brands, especially in the food and dessert industry. At Drizzl’d, we’ve seen firsthand how our customers’ love for sharing their dessert experiences on social media can significantly boost our brand, spread awareness, and enhance our credibility.

Photogenic balls @ Drizzl'd.

User-generated content is any form of content—photos, videos, reviews—created by customers and shared on social media platforms. For Drizzl’d, this means every time a customer snaps a picture of our beautifully crafted doughnuts and churros or shares a video of their first bite, they’re not just enjoying a treat—they’re also becoming brand ambassadors. This organic content helps us reach a wider audience, as each post has the potential to be seen by hundreds, if not thousands, of new eyes.

What makes UGC so valuable is its authenticity. Unlike traditional advertising, which is often seen as a brand’s attempt to sell, UGC comes directly from the customers. It’s real people sharing real experiences, which resonates more deeply with others. When someone sees a friend or influencer they trust enjoying Drizzl’d, it adds a level of credibility that’s hard to achieve through other means.

At Drizzl’d, we love seeing our customers share their experiences. For us, it's not just about promotion; it's about building a community. We actively engage by liking, commenting, and reposting your content—and we’re known to surprise you with gift vouchers when your posts make us smile! This interaction shows our appreciation and fosters a genuine connection, making our customers feel valued and encouraging them to share their experiences with us again.

We’re incredibly grateful to our customers for spreading the word about Drizzl’d. Your posts, photos, and reviews help us grow and connect with more dessert lovers every day. So, keep sharing those sweet moments—your content not only delights us but also helps make Drizzl’d a brand that everyone can enjoy and trust.

The Freshness Difference

There’s something inherently magical about watching your dessert come to life. From the moment you place your order, our skilled dessert artisans get to work, crafting your treat with precision and care. This process ensures that every bite you take is as fresh as possible, bursting with flavour and perfectly textured. The aroma of fresh dough, the sight of golden churros being dusted with sugar, and the sound of a scoop of gelato being expertly placed into a cup all combine to create a sensory experience like no other.

Unmatched Taste and Quality

Freshly made desserts have a distinct taste and quality that pre-made treats simply cannot match. The ingredients are at their peak, providing a vibrant flavour profile that delights the senses. Imagine biting into a warm, gooey hot ball doughnut or churro, its crisp exterior giving way to a soft, melt-in-your-mouth centre. The flavours are rich and intense, with each bite delivering a perfect balance of sweetness and texture. Our churros, freshly fried and coated in cinnamon sugar, offer a satisfying crunch that contrasts beautifully with their tender interior. And our gelato, made from the finest ingredients and churned to creamy perfection, provides a refreshing and indulgent finish to any meal.

Customer satisfaction is at the heart of everything we do at Drizzl’d. By making our desserts to order, we ensure that each customer receives a product that meets our high standards of excellence. This approach allows us to cater to specific preferences and dietary needs, providing a personalised experience that keeps our customers coming back for more. Whether it’s adjusting the sweetness level, adding extra toppings, or accommodating dietary restrictions, our made-to-order model allows us to deliver exactly what our customers crave.

The Theatrical Experience

Beyond the taste and quality, there’s an element of theatre in our made-to-order process. Watching our dessert chefs create your treat adds an extra layer of excitement and anticipation. The sight of your fresh hot-ball doughnuts being Drizzl’d in sauce, the sizzle of churros hitting hot oil, and the gentle hum of the gelato machine all contribute to an immersive experience that engages all your senses. The process is mesmerising, drawing you in and making the moment of indulgence even more special.
