I love supporting local businesses especially when it comes to food! I had heard of The Phat Doughnut Company briefly via Twitter, so when I spotted their stall in town, I knew I had to check them out. I can't believe I have only just discovered them. I bought two Salted Caramel doughnuts for my friend and I as we were on our way to Wollaton Park - it was the perfect little treat. (The sun was out, and it had started to melt a little when I took the photo. Oops!).
I'll be honest, never used to be a huge doughnut lover, the thought of jam and cold custard really puts me off - but I do love a glazed Krispy Kreme and the super market ones are just a little poor (IMO) mainly because they simply lack flavour and any sweetness. Now, I didn't buy a doughnut to be healthy did I? This one from The Phat Doughnut Co, was so good, the dough was soft, you could tell they had been freshly made, and the caramel glaze was perfect, not too sweet but enough to rid those sweet cravings.

In recent news they have announced that they are opening a little shop, not too far from my work, this could be both great and a little dangerous! (I know that I will definitely be back! They deliver too!)
Ps, I never know if it is Doughnut or Donut...
Oh My God. I love a good doughnut and this looks incredible! I don't eat them very often but when I do I always want seconds!

DeleteThat donut looks like carb heaven to me! Wonder if they have a branch near me?
ReplyDeleteOh it wasss, I reckon if they do well, I'm sure they will branch out! At the moment I believe it is just the one shop. x
