What would be your ideal, dream donut?

My dream donut would be a blood-orange jelly donut.

I used to make myself a chocolare cake donut presded deep into the
fudge icing then deep into the pan of crushed pecans. YUM!!

Working in the donut shop had it's definite advantages! :-)

Years ago I used to buy thick sugar cookies with thickly topped white icing.
And then they'd put these confectionary lobster decorations on them that
looked great. Have never seen them again.

I also miss Boston cream pocket pies, covered with a chocolate flavored
glaze.

I got some rasperry preserves (not jam) recently and it was filled with
seeds. Very bitter.

And once I bit into a rasperry muffin and got a raspberry seed stuck between
my teeth. Ouch.

Ya know something? As much as I like good old Dunkin Donuts Boston Cremes (which I have exactly once a year, coming up at an annual event I host in early May), if you were standing on a street corner and holding up one of these, examining it as though you were Macbeth studying Yorick's skull, and I was anywhere nearby and knew what you had, I'd probably crash through whatever crowd there was, grab it right out of your hands, dash off down the street gibbering madly, and devour it by the time I reached the next corner.

So keep an eye out for me (two meanings there!) :-)

I got some old-fashioned, deep-fried donuts at a fair once. Changed my life.

The best donut I have ever eaten was a cake donut, split like a bagel,
toasted and spread with cream cheese, eaten while still hot.

Was it a circular donut or a long donut? I think a long donut might be
easier to cut.

I bet you can't wait till you are tall enough to go on the big rides.

I have never heard Long Johns called "long donuts." Inventive. ;-)

I was going to say Long Johns or crullers, but that's kind of a local,
regional thing.

I've never heard of Long John's (other than winter underwear). Shows
how much I know about donuts.

When I was a little kid we used to visit my uncle in the next town. There was a bakery that made the best ever jelly donuts. They were huge, overfilled with a really thick raspberry/grape jam that would squirt out with every bite, the inside donut was dense and the outside crispy with raised sugar.. I loved visits with my uncle. When he didn't buy us donuts, he would make fresh strawberry crèpes. He was the cook/owner of a little corner restaurant.

The long ones are male/boy donuts... the round ones with a hole are
female/girl donuts... jelly/cream filled donuts are prego donuts.

Sounds delicious. I guess that must have been a Concord grape jam and not
like a lollipop (muscadine) grape jam.
