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!

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 .

Donut Day Recap 2017

Image
Well, it's been a few weeks since the hype of National Donut Day has worn off... now we've all settled into our usual donut routines. Has the 2017 Line-Up taught us anything? Of course. The Top 5 donuts in St. Louis were rated as follows: 1. FLORISSANT - Old Town Donut - boston creme 2. DOWNTOWN - Pharoah's - glazed  3. SHAW/THE HILL - O'Fashion - old fashioned  4. ST. LOUIS HILLS - St. Louis Hill's Donuts- dunking stick (oblong, glazed cake)  5. SOUTH COUNTY - The Donut Stop - jelly filled Note: Old Town won by 2 points & there were only 9 points between #1 & #5. Judging this year was slightly different - smaller portions, a smaller judging panel, and different contenders than 2016. The event itself is always a blast! Put on by Jazz at the Bistro, Donut Day in STL is a family friendly activity and true to STL, it's got plenty of FREE STUFF! Yep, free donuts, coffee, milk, balloon animals, a jazz performance, and even mor...
