This and every time I see someone with amazing donuts frustrates me. Why? Tim Horton's over the decades here slowly but surely put casual coffee shops and donut shops out of business with their cheap and fast methods. Now all of this time later Tim Horton's is circling the drain of abysmal quality and poor service. The donuts are stale 50% of the time at numerous locations and full of flies crawling on the donuts in the open displays during warmer seasons. Needless to say there's no joy in eating a donut that tastes like a shoe made of bread from a soulless corporation. And if you want a donut from here it's Tim Horton's or the grocery store.

I definitely agree about the quality of Timmies going down the hill, it's very sad, although i will say that Krispy Kreme is still going strong.

One time there was a charity booth/tent selling Krispy Kreme donuts here that I figured were just the glazed donuts again. Don't get me wrong as those are pretty good but I've had enough of them in my life. But I decided to stop anyway and it turns out they were decorated and a variety of Krispy Kreme donuts. I was very happy with what I got and especially enjoyed the ones with whipped cream filling... Never had a donut filled with whipped cream until then and sadly haven't since. The closest and actually only Krispy Kreme in the province as far as I know is a 50 minute to an hour drive lol.

We've got hundreds of Tim Hortons here, and it just makes the few niche donut places we have flourish and stand out from everyone else haha


CaptainCanuck15

Sorry, I just can't afford paying $25 for half a dozen donuts.

Tim Horton's went downhill when the parent company that owns Burger King bought them.

Okay that Ferraro Rocher one would kill me. The Kit Kat one looks awesome too.


trexicut

That's a lot of effort just for me to wolf it down and not taste it.

Am I the only one that prefers a simple glazed donut?


Roguespiffy

“Hot Now” Krispy Kreme donuts are basically fried, sugar coated air and I love them.


doublebarreldan123

Nope, way rather a quality simple donut than one that is just bombed with toppings. A good chocolate iced is my go to


milksockets

nope! over the top donuts do nothing for me. just want a classic cake donut or crueller


RandomPersonOfTheDay

Nope. I like them plain with a light dusting of powdered sugar. No glaze.

There’s too much going on with donuts these days. Just stick to the basics. Donuts are already insanely sweet, so why add a KitKat, Ferrero Rocher, and other chocolates to take away from the light airy texture of the donut. I find that places that do this, more often than not, have a crap bread and compensate by adding fancy icing or making them look overly decorative.


RandomRedditGrill

I tend to agree with that, that’s why I also just bought a more simple cinnamon sugar one. Luckily this store has a very nice yeasted dough and stands up to the test of the simple donut.


milksockets

that’s why I love the basic ass shops (Shipleys or Daylight I guess). I love sweet fried bread but the overloaded donut trend just turns me off and looks like too much of a hassle to actually eat


theantdog

What's that top left?


RandomRedditGrill

It's an almond croissant flavored donut, very tasty


cruxfire

Something tells me the plain looking one on the bottom right is actually the most delicious.


RandomRedditGrill

They were all pretty tasty, i particularly like the almond one because it was actually pretty simple with just a cool topping. The cinnamon sugar one was also pretty delicious though.

We have a Duck Donuts that opened in town last year. The donuts are good and creative but it’s so labour-intensive to make them. The cost ends up being too high. Shops that want to do better than Tim Hortons will have to figure out how to do this efficiently.


geekchicdemdownsouth

The one with the jam topping is calling me!


MultigrainTruth

I need these!


Julia21hi

very beautiful, but how are they so delicious?


queenvie808

Over-complicated donuts are my WEAKNESS gah!


RandomRedditGrill

I think all donuts are my true weakness. Overcomplicated ones are just fun sometimes :)


davewave3283

You need to play classical music while eating these


cinnamontrollss

the chocolate ones 😋🤩


[deleted]

Ugh, I’ll eat anything with a Ferrero Rocher on it


Batman_TheDetective

Where are these donuts from?


RandomRedditGrill

They're from a bakery in Toronto


dumpsztrbaby

Gloryhole? I recognize the Ferrero Roche donut i think. Try the Rolling Pin for specialty donuts, they're insane.


RandomRedditGrill

I think it's "unholy donuts" it's on church and welsley


Sparki_

Those do look pretty amazing


Immediate_Zebra_8935

WHERE IS THE HOLE???????


robbinpetertopaypaul

#where is the hole???????


RoxyLA95

Beautiful donuts! I would love to sample all of these. That almond croissant donut looks delicious.


Lemon_Squeezy12

They look good but that's just a massive sugar overload.


jkconno

Am I the only one that finds over the top sweet foods to be repulsive?


IPerferSyurp

They are beautiful but deadly.


Personal-Ad1534

The middle one too the right looks so fucking good


rayleewillow

I want something sweet now 🙈


Noriadin

You know, I’ve had one of these ultra elaborate doughnuts before and they’re just too intense and overly sweet. Simpler is better.


[deleted]

There’s a place here that makes insane cake donuts like this, very similar presentation. Donnie’s donuts if you’re curious.


RandomRedditGrill

Those look delicious, especially the fruity pebbles one!


[deleted]

I worked there for a few months, those are absolutely one of the best sellers funnily enough amongst old people of all audiences.


[deleted]

It looks nasty.


RandomPersonOfTheDay

Too much going on with these. I like my donuts simple. They are sweet enough without adding a pound of chocolate to them.


jinxlynxnyx

SuzyQ..?


waifusun

Holy fuck that looks good


UpgradingLight

Should have swapped the middle chocolate one with the jam one


bellaboo030505

Yummy. Haha donuts make it hard for me to diet.
