Fried Croissant or Fried Danish Cruller?

Image
Michael recently developed a fondness for Fried Croissants and of course they are delicious. So I get it. But I feel one of my favorite types of doughnuts is being overlooked- the Fried Danish Cruller - the figure 8 shaped doughnut with twisty middle. And my main question: do these actually exist in Denmark? So we taste tested them from Schnuck's bakery one day & agreed the Fried Croissant was better. I still think the Danish from Federhoffer's tops it, but will have to do further research to be sure. If you know anywhere that makes delicious Fried Croissants or Danish Crullers, please comment below!

New Vincent Van Doughnut Location in The Grove!

Image
My mom is in town and staying with me for a few weeks, so this morning I convinced her to join me for some pre-work doughnuts! I made sure to wear my Fitbit and put it in the foreground of the pic so that everyone knows I'm actually a very healthy person that just happens to eat donuts ;) I'm super happy about the new Vincent Van Doughnut location in The Grove! I work in the CIC buildings right by IKEA and as the official self-dubbed Party Planning Committee of my company, I can plan company outings here now! We ordered a  Coffee Chocolate Doughnut  and a variety of  Doughnut Holes - cinnamon sugar & glazed.  We also got a  savory breakfast pocket with Ham, Egg and Cheese .

Travel Edition - Pikes Peak "World Famous Donuts" at 14,000 ft

Image
The sign says they are "World Famous", so I had to break my gluten free streak for 1 bite. Maybe 2. But honestly, they are really only good if you dunk them in coffee. Otherwise, they were really oily. Kind of crunchy on the outside and more like a french fry than a donut. Or a funnel cake minus the powdered sugar. Why don't they add some powdered sugar?! There's an idea. According to the Rocky Mountain Food Report , doughnuts have been sold on the mountain for around 125 years... "They’re high-altitude [cake] doughnuts — they can only be made above 14,000 feet. … We just make high-altitude adjustments to the recipe. And of course we do have our secret ingredient, which we can’t reveal, sorry.” I'm sorry, too, Pikes Peak. Maybe you were having an off day, but I wasn't impressed. I guess I'll have to wait until I'm at 14,000 ft elevation again to give them a second try. ** Note: Oddly enough, after writing this, I'm totally craving...
