It’s National Doughnut Day and you should celebrate

I don’t really need an excuse to go out and eat donuts, but I think maybe it’s mandatory to get them today, National Doughnut Day. Here are some options for observing this important event:

Pandamonium Doughnuts

They are debuting a Tiramasu doughnut, which you can get free with each order, and is surely wonderful. No food truck service tomorrow, all of the festivities are happening at the store.

-We’re giving away FREE doughnuts! One free TIRAMISU doughnut with each order as it debuts for the first time! —while supplies last.
-Also, FREE Pandamonium button with a purchase of 6 or more doughnuts —while supplies last! .
-Raffling out prizes! With every order, you will receive a raffle ticket! At the end of the day, we will randomly pick winning tickets for a select number of prizes. Winners must hold on to tickets and we will post winning tickets on a separate Facebook post. Must present ticket to claim prize.
-Prizes include: T-shirts (2 winners); Coffee Mug + bag of beans (1 winner); Coupon for a free Half-Dozen (1 winner); AND the grand prize…FREE DOUGHNUTS FOR A YEAR*  (1 winner).

Lucky Pierre Doughnuts

These are just downright tasty, and thankfully there are lots of places around town you can find them: Avionics, Cafe Kopi, Hopscotch, Common Ground, to name a few. They have a new series of floral glazes which are seriously delightful. I’ve tried…several of them. 

Carmella’s Creme

My kids love these, and they are a solid option if you’re wanting straight up traditional doughnuts. Chocolate long john, glazed, maple cake doughnut, they’ve got you covered. Just know that they don’t except credit cards, so make sure you have cash, or a checkbook. And I have totally written a check for doughnuts before. Bonus: there’s a drive thru.
