We were heading home on Monday after the Taco Bell event and stopped by The Salvation Army Family Store in Huntington Beach. Didn't find anything and was disgusted by the store actually. Chris was loading the stroller in the truck and I was standing there watching a couple arguing with their toddler in the next parking lot over when I saw The Donuttery. I heard about the donut shop from a friend, she raved about their blueberry donuts. Chris decided to stay with the kids and I walked over to check it out. I glanced at the store hours sign since it was 8pm and made a mental note that they are open 24 hours. Good sign.
Opened the door and was bombarded with the sweet smell and visuals of many different donuts. Blueberry. Blueberry with frosting. Glazed Blueberry. Strawberry. Strawberry with frosting. Glazed Strawberry. Red Velvet. Apple Crumb. Peanut Butter & Jelly.
I only had plans on getting 4 donuts but the sweet cashier convinced me to get a dozen. I got doubles to share with Chris and she threw in a glazed freebie. As she was swiping my debit card, I glanced in the glass case - there were maple bars with strips of bacon on 'em. But it was too late, my card was run.
Duke only goes for chocolate donuts so I was surprised he actually tried the blueberry donut. He loved it. I loved it too. Probably my favorite out of all the donuts. The strawberry one is delicious. They all are. The blueberries taste like blueberries and the strawberries taste like strawberries! It's not too sweet, sugar is just right. The only one I wasn't a fan of is the red velvet. Maybe I'm over red velvet. My Husband loved it. Said it was his favorite. We'll be back even if it is a drive.
A dozen was $9 and some change. The Donuttery also offers sandwiches, bagels and drinks.
