Beyond amazing! Blue Star describes it well: “Our signature brioche shell is filled with thick vanilla custard, and then torched-fired by hand to create that crisp, smoky candy shell. A pipette is filled with Cointreau (orange liqueur), which adds a sweet citrus balance when squeezed into the donut.” And may I add, OMG! It’s up there with the best creme brûlée I’ve ever had!

Rich dark chocolate cake with a dark chocolate glaze & chocolate crumbs on top. Just wow! Super dark & flavorful. Just moist enough. Very fresh. From Underwest.

The olive oil added a subtly crisp coating & a depth of flavor. Then there was a whiff of orange flavor ( I think courtesy of "orange dust") that just put this donut over-the-top & out of the donut category & into the fine French cake category!

This is my favorite of the half dozen. It’s made by @csaffitz, formerly of Bon Appetite, currently on YouTube. It’s a yeast doughnut filled with the freshest tangy lemon curd and enrobed in a vanilla bean glaze, topped with a buttery crumbly lemon poppyseed cookie. What a wonderful experience! I could have one every week.

❤️❤️❤️! Like a freshly home made lemon ricotta cake. Moist, bright & very citrusy combined with a smooth & creamy taste & texture. Philly Federal may actually be better than NYC Doughnut Plant, but I'd have to do a side-by-side taste test to know. They both have such a variety of flavors, it would be difficult.

That light, cake-like brioche dough! It’s celestially enhanced by the filling of the bright, tart-sweet silky smooth Meyer lemon & key lime curd. Cool, fine powdered sugar tops it off. Every bite is a revelation. Heavenly.😌

Boy, (or girl!), do I taste the coffee in there! In the dough, the glaze & the creamy marscapone filling. It’s their own coffee, too! Best.coffee.cake.ever!

Light, thin, crispy brûléed caramel over a yeast doughnut filled with creamy vanilla bean custard. A pleasurable experience! It’s their signature donut. They say they’re the first in the world to create this!

Fantastic burnt caramel genuine grapefruit flavor in a soft lightly dense dough. Mama mia!

Pillowy, dense & chocolatey cake doughnut with chocolate pudding in the middle! Doughnut to share or break-up-comfort doughnut or just savoring-alone-time doughnut! Here’s the official description: “Rich chocolate cake doughnut dipped in Valrhona chocolate, with a chocolate pudding filling and then sprinkled with chocolate cake crumbs. Doughnut Plant's tribute to Brooklyn's Ebinger's bakery.” Nostalgia doughnut!

So moist & dense with a very nice pumpkin flavor in the cake & the icing. Nice little crunchy pumpkin seeds on top complete the delicious experience.

From the menu: “Sticky, delious messy dark chocolate glaze made with dark caramel sprinkled with a bit of grey sea salt.” From me: 🤪😋So crazy good! The chocolate is deep & rich. Love the crunchy sea salt. The caramel adds a sweet, buttery richness. It’s made with a yeast dough. They say it it is a brioche-like recipe. I say it is pillowy & fresh & humongous! I tried to save 1/2. Then I tried to save a quarter. Then I figured it wouldn’t stay fresh for long, so...poof!

Fresh, dense cake doughnut with that spicy ginger burn! I taste ginger in the glaze and in the cakey goodness! They’ve done it again! This one was made to celebrate the Lunar New Year.

Fresh, cakey, spicy & with a nice touch of candied orange rind. From Underwest. So glad I stopped in on a whim!

Actually it was really really good! Super moist & a strong pineapple flavor. It’s made with caramelized fresh pineapples & fresh rosemary in the dough & the glaze. Flavor bomb!

I love this moist, bright tasting yuzu doughnut! Yuzu is in the batter and the icing. Can’t get much more yuzu than that!

So moist, fresh & with a definite apple flavor! That sprinkling of sugar crystals on top is just the right finishing touch! ✨It looks more like Bundt cake, but I’ll eat it regardless of the name!

This doughnut created by @zoebakes x Fan Fan is rolled in lemon sugar, filled with toasted coconut pastry cream & topped with torched meringue. So creamy & dreamy! (Note to self: eat before subway ride before meringue melts!)

“A Doughnut Plant original, with real ginger and molasses.” Very rich & gingery. It’s a cake doughnut, which I totally love. Doesn’t hurt that it’s so cute, either! However I had mixed feelings about eating his legs.

Sweet iced soft & pillowy cake filled with subtley spiced pumpkin cream. I was happily surprised cause I just bought it for fun!

Well, I may have over-done it this time! I couldn’t resist this six-doughnut special plus bonus doughnut holes. Each doughnut was made by a different female chef. Or they probably each gave their recipe to FanFan Doughnuts who made them. I got a friend to have a little bite of three. No one else likes doughnuts. What could I do?!🤷🏻‍♀️ They we're very good to amazing. I’ll review each one by & by.

They are Very Good to Amazing. All are vegan. Some creative combinations. 1. Lemon Cream 2. Pistachio 3. Grapefruit Mimosa (with brûléed grapefruit & champagne in icing!) 4. Sexual Chocolate (with fudge cake crumbles)

Carrot-mandarin citrus glaze with Black Sesame yeast doughnut by @natashapickowicz x @fanfandoughnuts for @cherrybombe Valentine’s Collab! Love the delicate citrus flavor combined with earthy carrot & black sesame oomph. #valentinesdoughnuts #valentinesday #doughnuts #yeastdoughnuts #brooklyn #nyctattoo

Rich glaze made with bittersweet Vintage Plantation (should they change their name?🤔) chocolate, topped with a crunchy almond streusel over a fluffy, yet dense brioche-like dough. Very satisfying & so good. I could taste both the coffee & chocolate with the coffee being more prominent, which makes me happy!

“Hanukkah sufganiyot! Filled with our housemade blackberry jam and dipped in our marzipan glaze!” So pillowy & the jam is really intense. The marzipan glaze adds a touch more flavor.

A spicy cake doughnut! It’s got real ginger & molasses in it & ginger bits in the glaze. Tastes like all those winter spices, too!

Cake donut infused with dark French chocolate topped with a lightly sweet Steve Smith Bergamot tea glaze. Subtle, comfy & satisfying!

Bright citrus flavor & moist yeast doughnut. Pretty!

Also moist & citrusy like it’s yeasty sibling. Maybe even moister!

Between a rich & light dough, filled with creamy dark chocolate & coated in crunchy sugar crystals by #SupermoonBakehouse. Deelicious! #doughnut
