Florida Donut Shop Closes After Being Open for Just 3 Days
Dixie Highway Donuts was the brainchild of owner Sarah Callis, who has spent more than two decades in the donut-making business. On May 30, Callis hosted a soft opening at the shop located at 6108 S. Dixie Highway in West Palm Beach, with the grand opening scheduled for one week later.
The grand opening took place as scheduled last Friday, June 6, which was National Donut Day. However, on Monday, Callis posted a surprising social media message announcing that the business was closing after it had just opened.
'Dear Guests, [due] to a dissolution of partnership on grand opening day unfortunately we are no longer open. I am deeply saddened by this event. I apologize from the bottom of my heart," Callis said, via the Sun Sentinel.
All social media pages for the donut shop have been shut down as well. It appears that Callis had some kind of dispute with her business partner, who she referenced, but not by name, in an article with the Palm Beach Post before Dixie Highway Donuts opened.
The official website for the now defunct establishment remains up and running.
"Our bakers start work before the sun rises each day to ensure that every batch is as fresh as possible before it gets to you. The warm smell of baking often escapes onto the street before we've even opened," reads one portion of the homepage.
It's crazy that a fledgling business could disintegrate so quickly just because of a fight between owners, but things must have gotten crazy.
It's a shame for prospective customers, as the menu for Dixie Highway Donuts looked rather enticing.

Palm Beach County condo wars erupt this summer with infighting, lawsuits, and mean nicknames
Welcome to The Dirt! I'm real estate, weather and critter reporter Kimberly Miller with the latest developments in the sizzling market. This summer has mostly been a deep dive lesson for Palm Beach Countians (Countyites, Countiers?) in politics and I don't mean whatever shenanigans are happening in Tallahassee or Washington or Syndey Sweeney's genes jeans. No, I mean the real deal politics of what we used to call Condo Commandos, which now seems like an erudite title for a gentler time when The Real Grandmas of Century Village just talked smack behind each other's backs and ate the last pudding out of spite. Palm Beach Post reporters have written an estimated 1,670 stories about scorched Earth condominium wars the past few months and this week is no different with "The Beast of Beach Sound" (true nickname) and the "Not so Halcyon Days at the Halcyon" (made up nickname.) In "The Beast of Beach Sound," developers bought out the majority of an oceanfront condo because developers gonna develop and are doubling the size of a four-story building to the chagrin of neighbors who see no beauty in building an eight-story complex just 25 feet from Beach Sound Road.

In other real estate-related news, Palm Beach County home prices slumped in June putting the market in firmly-balanced territory, a judge says the Halcyon Condominium Association in Palm Beach is so wrecked it needs a receiver, and health care companies are flocking to Palm Beach County as wealthy residents escape from L.A. and New York because, as it turns out, Snake Plissken is a prophet. Halcyon Condominium Association in Palm Beach messed up big, according to judge This is a total stereotype but don't you assume Palm Beachers would be good money managers? I mean, they're Palm Beachers, right? Not so says Circuit Judge Maxine Cheesman who has ordered the appointment of a receover to oversee the association management at the Halcyon Condominium Association. A resident sued the association after it failed to have a vote on installing a $2.5 million air conditioning system and, hey, BTW, there's $15 million in expenditures that aren't accounted for, according to the filings. The association is asking the judge to reconsider and maybe it's too much to ask retirees who just want to, well, retire, to be in charge of a multi-million-dollar association budget and still be friends at the pool. Palm Beach County existing home prices drop in June for first time in at least five years There's debate about whether Palm Beach County is morphing into a year-round real estate market with more families looking to buy in the summer before school starts. Traditionally, June has been a slumpy month until the pandemic when prices could not be tamed. But this year, June home sale prices were down 5% from the previous year. And this is a message from the Emergency Broadcast System; Don't panic. Repeat. Do. Not. Panic. It's likely just a readjustment after we all lost our ever-loving minds during Covid-19 and it's a good thing for buyers who have more room to negotiate. Plus, the median price is still $626,000 and the average price is still more than $1 million. So, yeah, home ownership remains unaffordable for a lot of folks. Healthcare companies flock to heaven's waiting room The definitive and informative round up of what healthcare companies are expanding into Palm Beach County is out with lead business reporter Alexandra Clough's deeply-reported piece on plans for new medical facilities and treatments. Companies are coming from New York, Ohio and Massachusetts to boost their local offerings. Sure, they're following the moneyed and insured folks moving to Palm Beach County, but local providers are upping their game to compete, and that, my friends, is the American way! Also, some of us have genes jeans that are wrinkled, faded, full of holes and just generally distressed. We need all the medical facilities we can get. Live lightly.

Clean dining: See all 74 South Florida restaurants, food trucks with perfect inspections in June 2025
June marked the return of report-card season at our schools — and that included our South Florida eateries, where 74 restaurants and food trucks earned straight As. In June, 74 'gold-star' restaurants and food trucks made the list of perfect inspections because not one violation — minor, intermediate or high-priority — was red-flagged at the time of the surprise visit from Florida safety and sanitation inspectors. Inspections typically take place at random every six months to a year. In Broward County, 46 eateries earned perfect scores. Meanwhile, in Palm Beach County, 28 passed their inspections without a single incident. The Sun Sentinel has tallied them all up in an easy-to-read format below. NOTE: All restaurants and food trucks listed below have been sorted by city. Those without physical addresses on their Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation inspection reports have been trimmed from the list. Food and drink concessionaires, professional caterers, event planners — any purveyor that's not a restaurant, food truck, flea market stall or food hall vendor — are also excluded from the roundup. If your city isn't listed, either no restaurants there were inspected that month, or none earned a perfect score.
