Take a peek-at-Chu Chu Donuts

Left and center, The Cronut at Chu Chu Donuts is a joy to eat with pillowy croissant layers within and a nicely-browned exterior enrobed in a light glaze. All the more delightful when freshly baked. Right, Chu Chu also makes an excellent Old Fashioned doughnut with lots of crispy edges to tear off and enjoy with a cup of coffee. The plain is my favorite.

Left and center, A darn good double chocolate doughnut. The cake is softer, lighter than what you would find elsewhere. Rich cocoa flavor makes this a top choice. Right, a maple bacon Long John is straightforwardly delicious.

Left and center, Chu Chu’s Jumbo Croissant Roll comes with a cheese-studded summer sausage inside, with or without jalapeΓ±o. So lightly crisp on the outside, then pillowy folds followed by savory sausage. Right, A feast of frosted Old Fashioned doughnuts, with five chocolate and a lone maple in the lower right. The frostings are quite good but better suited on a regular cake doughnut; the maple more so with bacon on the Long John.

An exceptional apple fritter at Chu Chu Donuts with a crisp, glazed crust and an ΓΌber-moist, pull-apart interior. Warm cinnamon aroma, loads of flavor. Overall quite rich and sweet! Pairing with coffee is a must.

Glazing on the chocolate cake doughnut, left, is light and not too sweet. If you like your cocoa flavor more robust then opt for the chocolate frosted variety. Center, A lightly glazed Old Fashioned. I like to pull off the well browned, crispy edges first, then finish with the remaining 'ring'. Right, A plain cake doughnut is slightly sweet with a brown, crisp exterior. I'd be happy with a pair of these plus a cup of coffee.
