What is the only good brand/kind of donut...in your opinion?

44 Replies (last)

Krispy Kremes glazed right off the press!

Old Fashioned/Buttermilk Bar (not Krispy Kreme's, their's are not very good)

From this little bakery in the middle of town.  Everyone went there and they were sold out by 8am.  If you wanted the good stuff you'd have to get there at 5:30 am.

I think the place closed down when the Wal-Mart SuperCenter moved in down the road. 

wow I'm not up on them! I just get whatever is on show in the bakers, but my favourite is caramel topped icing with fresh cream in the middle. they are to die for.

Damn Wal-Mart Super Centers for displacing little donut shops!  Or is that another topic?

Boston Creme donuts, any brand.

Any kind of cake donuts from The Cider Mill in Endicott, NY.

apple cider cake donuts from our local grocery store....only seasonal and the best.

Dunkin Doughnuts, chocolate glazed. end of story. :]

If anyone dares to say Tim Hortons, I'm going through my old computer to find pictures of when I worked there.  The horrors they put those doughnuts through...

Krispy Kream...since we don't have that brand in Thailand. But in general, I just need a 'nice-looking'....not the one that looks like a chuck of ugly fried-batter.

 

My favorite one in general is the jelly/strawberry-blueberry jam inside. I can eat like...half of the Krispy Kream cream-filled with chocolate glazed.

Well, I like them, but I would try to eat them very very very once in a while.

I cannot eat Krispy Kreme (I made the mistake of eating three one morning, made me so sick- couldn't look at  donut over the next two months without feeling sick) I love Dunkin Donuts eclair or chocolate frosted and Shipley's bear claws, and there is a place in Corpus Christi that makes the best apple fritters!!!!! And my local grocery store (H-E-B) makes really good glazed & sour cream donuts!!!

Tim Hortons Canadian Maple.

Neener.

Dunkin' Donuts, obviously.  America runs on Dunkin' -- the fine Boston-based institution.

Plain donuts - warm...from a cider mill

Clearly you are a donut light weight!  It took me almost a dozen to slip and fall and hit my head (yes, I know this explains a lot).

lol, yes, i read that in the other donut thread... And on a side note, if you look at the other threads you'll see we share a love of Firefly, so that immediately makes you awesome in my book!!!

blech!  donuts (doughnuts) suck!

I was like raised on Yum Yum Donuts sugar glazed and coated. :D

Krispy Kreme is way to sweet for me, and they taste like air with sugar.
