Give me light and fluffy while not a wad of sugar.

Post by: HyperZoneWasAwesome on November 03, 2017, 07:08:15 PM: the maple custard bismark (bottom row) from my hometown bakery (https://www.yelp.com/biz/the-moose-is-loose-soldotna). It might just be the nostalgia talking, but their crème filling was perfect, as was the whole overstuffed construction of the whole thing. I've traveled far, I've not yet tasted a better doughnut in the Western hemisphere.

Post by: Cryo on November 03, 2017, 07:18:15 PM: Does anyone else here consider Krispy Kreme to be bottom-tier donuts? I get that the ethereal aspect of them can be appealing, but I never feel satisfied after finishing one and it's also never as good as I might have imagined it would've been prior to taking a bite, similarly to most of Taco Bell's offerings these days. :beli

edit: ok cool I can agree with etoliet on something for once

Title: Re: Best Donut
Post by: nachobro on November 03, 2017, 07:26:04 PM: Yeah other than a fresh original, KK is low tier. Dunkin is definitely better as far as chains. Been tough to skip out on donuts lately cause I'm avoiding sweets, but also a Dunkin opened up within short walking distance to my house. :-\

They're not awesome, and they become less awesome quickly. God-tier donuts are still edible the morning after you bought them. KK is not edible without microwaving a couple hours after they come off the mesh.

And in Japan they're ¥200 each. A two dollar donut? Give me a break, you ain't artisan millenial military-grade donuttery.

You have not been close enough the New Orleans.

The closer you get to New Orleans the better the donuts get.

I actually like the morning after test. A coworker brought some glazed old fashioned donuts from a local joint and hid them upstairs for us, and they were fucking incredible even 2 days after they first showed up.

Post by: team filler on November 03, 2017, 11:48:48 PM: krappy kreme is nothing but garbage, they got the frosting to doughtnut ratio all fucked up. It's like taco bell in donut form, or when you look up recipes to try to recreate your favorite chinese food dishes and nothing comes out right. Better off going to a real doughnut shop or even hitting up a Dunks. Chocolate bars, raspberry filled, maple bar with crispy bacon on top, blueberry cake doughnuts :jawalrus

I'll drop reasonable change on Psycho Donuts in San Jose, CA. I'm also up for spending on Voodoo Donuts.

KK is a massive franchise that's proud of their conveyor belt process. Why in the aytch-eeh-double-hockey-sticks am I going to pay more for that than the 99¢ donuts at mom-and-pop places, or even the ¥120 donuts of the ubiquitous Mr. Donut?

Hint: I won't.

There was a great shop in San Jose, CA called Lou's Living History Donut Museum. They mixed mashed potatoes in with their dough. Those things were great well into the next day, and enjoyably edible the day after that. When the owner retired, he didn't leave it to anyone, so it closed. :'(
