Donut King
 

Donut King donuts with a nice DD iced coffee, the summertime treat !!

Restaurants and grocery stores can’t donate food for the same reason! Government decision years ago. Check it out!

Think that Clermont’s better

So far it’s DD as a bad donut. It can happen.

If you're from Northeast nobody beats Dunkins coffee ( french vanilla swirl ) the donuts have seemed to become secondary although their apple spice donuts are pretty good. Also Brownwood Dunkin staff has been very accommodating and pleasant when I go there every morning during snowbird season.

Apparently I am in a minority but never liked dunkins coffee.

I tried Donut King. They are a distant 2nd to Dip A Dee donuts in Leesburg. The flavor and lightness of the batter at Dip A Dee is better than any donut I've had - Donut King and Krispy Kreme included.

Looks like this donut tastes turning into pizza taste Contest my brand better than your.:shocked:

We’ve been so disappointed with donut choices since DD went to crap. I know we’ve driven past both of these stores. Have to stop in and check them out!

Not really posters are giving viewpoint there is definitely a better doughnut then eating the frozen/thawed donuts from DD.

Pizza is an entirely different food mostly a regional thing. Donuts are like any bakery item, one always looks for the best.

It’s always nice to hear experiences of the business they found, doesn’t mean you are not a fan, or love it, but at least there are options to try outside of the bubble. I don’t expect to find a family owned for 60 years donut place, that we grew up with, but a poster may happen on that establishment.
One can only hope. In the mean time, our kids bring a dozen at every visit, bad thing it’s only 6 times a year.

Nice try but Donut King is just pure EVIL.

I heard (of all people our Pastor) talking about DK. We live in Ocoee. I have *maybe* 2-3 donuts per year. No sweet tooth--I would prefer a cheeseburger. Went to Toyota in Clermont for maintenance and decided to "swing by" Donut. King in Clermont.

I purchased a 6-pack. I ate three of them on the way home.

DK is to Krispy Kreme as Krispy Kreme is to Dunkin. (And I grew up in Boston where Dunkin' is king)

I love seeing local places that have a great (fantastic) product..

(My 34-yoa son asks me to drive to DK every trip--it is over an hour round-trip. I am still not sure that is a testament to how much I love my only son--or how much we love DK).

Now we have to go.

You are talking my favorite donuts now. Who doesn’t like their hot glazed donuts. If they were just low calorie…

So we took your advice, and stopped at Dip-A-Dee donuts Sunday @11:30. First there was very little to choose from, so warning get there early is key.
We bought traditional glazed, twist, cinnamon roll, chocolate and vanilla cake donuts. All had right amount of glaze, light and fluffy, cake donuts consistency was light and had zero heavy grease taste.

The shining star was the fritter. Which we have a personal favorite type for fritters. It’s all about the outside edges with the crisp, yet fluffy fritter with small dice fruit.
This entire fritter was like eating outside edge, crisp and light for the whole donut.

Owner is very nice. So go small business. Thank you, for this find. Sadly and happily we ate 9 of the dozen in a day.

nice review, now we're gonna go

He was very honored that residents were giving reviews on TOTVs. Obviously DK is a chain down the street.
Mention why you are stopping and watch his face light up.

Again Go Small Business

Hard to eat just one.

Based on this thread, we stopped at Donut King the other evening and bought a dozen. Holy cow! Those were great donuts. Big and plump. Not heavy and cakey but rather light and tasty.

Takes me back to the glory days of Dunkin Donuts when each location baked their own daily.

Will have to try the other shop mentioned on 441. They sound good too.

And Krispy Kreme? Yeah, they’re not worthy of being in the same discussion. But they are okay in a pinch.

Dealio
You were right on the mark. We tried dipadee this morning and the donuts are good, very good, maybe the best I've had.

The price is a different story... We got 2 breakfast sandwiches 5.99 each, 2 filled donuts 1.99, each and 1 coffee 3.19. the total was 23.00. I'm not sure what the tax rate is it if there's a built in tip but that price seems suspect.

We will certainly go back next time we need a donut but we will stop at a donut and watch the tally.

Great donuts, average coffee, fair breakfast croissants, strange maths.
