Donata was born from the belief that food should be simple, honest, and incredibly delicious.
We bring the warmth of Italian cooking and honest ingredients to everyday kitchens.
Chef Danny Smiles created Donata to offer better options to your pantry.
Each product reflects his belief that great cooking should feel easy, joyful, and worth gathering for. Every meal should be something special, yet simple enough to make any weeknight feel like Sunday lunch.
Honest food is the best food!
We use real, high-quality ingredients. No fillers, no shortcuts. Every recipe is crafted with Danny's culinary expertise to offer incredible flavour that's kid and chef-approved.
Danny is one of Canada’s most recognized culinary talents. He was a Top Chef Canada finalist, and he is the co-executive chef and co-owner of Montreal’s Le Violon, the recently named Canada’s Best New Restaurant and No. 11 on Canada’s 100 Best, as well as a Michelin Guide Recommended destination.
With his signature ingredient-driven, soulful cooking, Danny crafts every recipe so your table feels like his own.
Ask Us Anything
Where are your tomato sauces made?
Our tomato sauces are made in Italy using 100% Italian tomatoes. Our sauces contain no preservatives, are gluten free and have no added water. Many other sauces on the market add water as filler, but ours only contain what's essential.
Can I get Donata shipped to my house?
We’re focused on stocking local grocery stores and fine retailers first. But stay tuned—online ordering is in the works. In the meantime, check our Store Locator.
How long does it last once opened?
Once opened, refrigerate and enjoy within 5 days for the best flavour and freshness.
Is your packaging recyclable?
Yes! Just give the jars a quick rinse and recycle them curbside - or use them to pot plants or herbs in your kitchen.
