donuts to go

Doughnut Dolly is a shop in Temescal Alley specializing in freshly made donuts filled to order from a variety of offerings that change daily.  I chose their special "Naughty Cream," (a crème fraîche vanilla bean cream).  The line is usually out the door which is a little surprising given the donuts are $3 a pop.  Then again, they really do taste good.  Linked to City Daily Photo's monthly Theme Day.  Click here for more take-out offerings from around the world.

    I have never seen a $3 donut before. Really? Now I am wondering what three dollars of pastry tastes like.

    Freshly made donuts are irresistible! I could almost smell them.

    I think I would enjoy the smell more than the taste.

    Well 3$ for freshly filled isn't that much, is it compared to industrial prices and to what a simple croissant costs these days here? This is cruel. It's breakfast time here and I don't have any doughnuts!!!!!

    I'm not a fan of doughnuts (I've never understood the Krisy Kreme craze), but these sounds good. And I'd be willing to share one to give it a try! :)

    When something deserves it people are willing to pay for it. Not everybody on the selling side has this insight. Looks good to me.

    That looks pretty good. Not really a doughnut fun but am willing to try. I know I'd like the filling. MB

    Doughnut fans do like their favourite indulgence, after all!

    I have never had a home-made doughnut. I know I have missed something... the photo hits it home hard :)

    What a cute name. I could happily take away one of those super doughnuts.

    Freshly made $3 donuts? That is a first. I don't think of Oakland as a place where people have budgets to accommodate $3 donuts.

    An interesting concept: "custom made doughnuts". Too bad I live far away ;-).

    Gourmet donuts seem to be a popular thing here to with the weirdest flavour combos!

    Oh, I would opt for one very fabulous donut rather than a dozen "regular" ones. Crème fraîche vanilla bean cream? Definitely!

    Bises,
