Good times are best reserved for the morning, that way I know they're fresh. Hot, sticky and Shipley!! Man o' man, I have eaten donuts all over, but hotn'fresh is unbeatable. The mistaken notion of machine made is overrated, gimme a hand cut, properly proofed and fried to a golden brown sugar glazed Shipley Do-Nut anyday!!!
I just discovered fresh doughnut holes at the Cherry Creek Farmers Market in Denver this past weekend. I forget the name of the stand, but you'll know it as they only sell fries (with delicious aioli) and doughnuts. The doughnuts are light, greaseless and go down easy. They are the best I've tasted in Colorado.
@Kate- I hear ya! I really love Dom Bakeries in Ypsi (I'm an EMU alum). Z's donuts aren't even that good-- Zingerman's is great but sometimes people just assume their entire menu is great (which it's not)
But I was happy to see at least one of the great polish bakeries in Hamtramck.... we got Paczki from there every Fat Tuesday cause my dad worked at AAM (formally GM).
Boo hoo I miss home. And I want a donut.
Not only is Zingerman's not the best donut in Michigan, it's not even the best cake donut in Ann Arbor! (That would be Washtenaw Dairy.)
Yay for Donut Pub! I LOVE their honey dip! And, for the Maryland and Delaware peeps, I love Fractured Prune... so good!
Texas - Lone Star Bakery - The Round Rock Donut. People begin waiting at 2 am for the shop to open at 4:30 am every day. The yellowest insides ever - from organic eggs, not articficial flavoring. Mention Round Rock Donuts to anyone in Central Texas and everyone will know exactly where to go, what is needed and how good those donuts are.
You couldn't find ONE donut shop worth mentioning in the the whole state of Pennsylvania?? I'm sure the amish make a mean donut or apple fritter or something. poor form!
