Yesterday, Cathy walked by Ryan’s desk and caught a glimpse of the Dinky Donuts ad that he was working on for the paper. This spurred a chain reaction that resulted in us ordering a sampler dozen and a bag of the Minis. You have to order them a day in advance, but they’re delivered. Needless to say, I was more excited than usual to get to the office this morning.
We were all anxiously awaiting the delivery of the Dinkies, which arrived right around 9:40. It took great willpower to keep from diving in until after we took a few photos.
The Reviews
Maple Caramel: “The perfect amount of sweetness. Not too much maple, just a hint. Goes great with coffee. Reminded me of the beignets at Café Du Monde French Market in New Orleans.” – Andrew
“Knocked my socks off!” – Steve
Strawberry Homer: “It was the realest tasting strawberry I’ve every tasted. Trumps Dunkin Donuts.” – Bridget
“I think it’s going to kill me, that’s what I think. It’s like death on a napkin.” – Rick
Chocolate Frosted: “Oh, I liked ’em!” – Cathy
“No better breakfast than chocolate.” – Bridget
Minis: “More like a beignet… except granulated sugar instead of powdered.” – Andrew
Don had the Boston Cream, but is currently unavailable for comment. Methinks he’s gone to Donut Heaven…
