Growing up in small-town Indiana, Andy Arrendale, now owner of Quack Daddy Donuts, occasionally dreamed of one day serving up sweet treats to the public. “I had always joked about opening an ice cream shop or something in town,” says Arrendale, a native of Swayzee, Indiana. “I remember being little and making a menu.” Now a resident of Westfield, Arrendale is happy to finally open the new Quack Daddy Donuts franchise location in Westfield’s new Spring Mill Grand Station. Originally founded by Bryan Williams and Lisa
DeLey in Pendleton, Quack Daddy Donuts specializes in made-to-order doughnuts, meaning customers get to choose what kind of icing and topping they’d like, right on the spot.
“I was down in Florida and came across the made-to-order doughnut concept at a small shop down there,” Arrendale says. “I thought it was a cool idea, and we didn’t really have anything around here like that.”
Having lived in Westfield for about nine years now, Arrendale and his wife both work as nurses.
Arrendale began thinking about opening his own made-to-order doughnut shop in the Carmel-Westfield area, but the idea was quickly squashed by his wife.
“She works in cardiac transplant at St. Vincent, and I work in dialysis at St. Vincent,” he says. During a visit to Florida, Arrendale began contemplating the idea of opening his own made-to-order doughnut shop here in Indiana.
“She’s more of the sensible one in the relationship,” he says with a laugh. Arrendale eventually came in contact with Bryan Williams and Lisa DeLey, who had already found success with the made-toorder concept at Quack Daddy Donuts.
