Earlier that week, a friend was telling me about this awesome doughnut shop in Oakland where they fill the doughnuts before your eyes. It sounded pretty fantastic and the doughnut holiday gave me the perfect excuse to check it out.
So I grabbed a friend and Friday morning I made my way to Doughnut Dolly.
Doughnut Dolly is located in a darling part of Oakland called Temescal. It's located in an alleyway, but no worries, there are signs to point you in the right direction. The shop is owned by this adorable, friendly lady who made my friend and I feel right at home. Not to mention, she told us this hilarious story about the time she went to a fertility festival in Japan. That's a conversation you'd never think to have in a doughnut shop!
The doughnuts themselves were ah-mazing! They have four flavors of filling that change every week. You choose what filling you want and they'll fill it for you. You can even mix flavors! When I went the flavors were cherry jam, bourbon creme, dark chocolate, and naughty cream (vanilla).
The doughnuts were delicious. I took a couple home to share with the roomies and they highly approved of them too! So if you ever have a hankering for doughnuts, stop by Doughnut Dolly's for a culinary delight!
