Mouthwatering Donut Flavors That You Should Try

Everybody loves donuts! Doesn’t matter if you love classic flavors like the chocolate glazed ones or have the heart to venture for something unusual like black licorice, we’ve got them all for you.

National Donut Day

National Donut Day is celebrated in America on the first Friday of June every year to honor the members of the Salvation Army who served donuts to soldiers during World War I.

When it comes to making your stomach growl, nothing beats the aroma of a batch of freshly made donuts! From chocolate glazed, to jelly filled, to candied bacon, there’s a perfect donut for no matter what mood you’re in or what your hankering may be. 

Although donuts are found all over the world in different shapes and names, we Americans seem to be excessively passionate about donuts (and why shouldn’t we be?) No matter where you go, every city in this country boasts of a place that makes donuts the best! Not to mention that every baker has his or her own version of this uber fancy dessert. Here are some of the classic donuts that we suggest that you should try.

All-time Favorite Donut Flavors

Glazed Donut

A classic will always remain just that-classic! The classic glazed donuts will always reign on top when it comes to donuts. No matter what time of the day or what month of the year, a simple glazed yeast dough donut always works best.

Chocolate Glazed Donut

A simple yeast dough donut iced with chocolate frosting, and a cup of coffee, is a match made in heaven! Add a topping of colorful sprinkles or tiny little colorful marshmallows, and you get a sight as good as the taste.

Double Chocolate

A chocolate cake dough cooked to perfection and topped with a chocolate frosting brings to you a chocolaty goodness you just can’t resist. This glistening treat is a dream snack for every donut fanatic.

Powdered Donut

A moist and rich cake dough donut covered with snowy powdered sugar. This donut will reign supreme when it comes to satiating your appetite.

Jelly Filled

Be it strawberry, raspberry, or blueberry, these donuts are every berry lover’s dream come true. A donut filled with a rich lemony filling will never fail to disappoint a great of the tangy citrus flavor.

Boston Crème

A yeast risen dough filled with creamy vanilla flavored custard and topped with a chocolate icing is everyone’s favorite. Such good is this donut that it has a song written about it.

Cinnamon Roll

Sweet, buttery, yeast leavened dough with generous hints of cinnamon baked until it dons a golden color. Accompanied with black coffee or tea, it is one hell of a way to start a day!

Cinnamon and Sugar Dusted

Donut with a crunchy exterior and spongy heart, coated with powdery sugar along with the sweet heat of cinnamon; these delicious treats will never go out of fashion.

Bear Claw

This sweet Danish pastry is a homegrown classic that every American loves! It is usually flavored with almonds and sometimes has an added pizzaz of raisins.

Apple Fritters

A crunchy deep-fried dough along with bite-sized chunks of apples. Add to that a mildly robust flavor of cinnamon and the dazzle of glaze; it just doesn’t get any better than this!

Long Johns

Yeast risen bar-shaped donuts coated with an embellishment of shiny icing. Whether it is a Long John topped with a chocolate frosting or the medley of maple flavored icing and salty bacon, picking one that we like best just doesn’t seem possible.

Cronuts

A cross between a croissant and a donut, a cronut is of those things New Yorkers get to brag about! Deep-fried layered pastry rolled in sugar, with a cream-filled center, and a final grace of glaze added to it. This dessert is so famous that it has been featured in many TV series and talk shows!
