A New Source for Doughnuts With Inventive Flavors

                                      Glazed Donuts' flavors change weekly and run the gamut from caramel cornmeal with hazelnut icing to peanut butter and jelly.

Food-industry veteran Kirsten Anderson partnered with trained pastry chef Betsy Yagunic to found Glazed Donuts this spring. The duo specializes in doughnuts with exotic, seasonal flavors, like autumnal options that include pear with honey, apple cheddar, and butternut squash with orange essence icing. The company can also prepare doughnut bread pudding and doughnut cakes (similar to cupcake towers but with ring-shaped pastry instead). In addition to their signature treat, the caterers can prepare desserts such as petit fours, miniature cupcakes, and key lime tarts.

The team can now provide sweets for meetings and events for as many as 200 guests. Committed to sustainable business practices, Anderson and Yagunic source spices from farm co-ops and buy eggs from local farms. Additionally, all Glazed Donuts packaging is recycled and can be composted.
