Dough in Brooklyn

A beautiful Winter day in Spring called for a day filled with walking in the neighborhood and enjoying the local eats.

Today took us to Dough, a recently opened doughnut shop in Bedford Stuyvesant in Brooklyn. Dough is an offshoot of a local cafe, Choice that sells breakfast, lunch, and dinner. This area of the neighborhood has been yearning for an establishment like Dough, and I thrilled to say that we experienced all of its glory today.

Dough is an unassuming space on the corner of Lafayette Ave. And Franklin Ave. We were a few hearse from the entrance when the sweet smell of doughnuts knocked us off our feet. Oh my goodness! The line wasn't terrible, but we went in around 2pm and they had been open since 7am (close daily @ 4pm).

Once it was our turn we knew that two flavors were sold out that we wanted to try-hibiscus and Nutella. So...we had to pick from all the other amazing flavors that were still available. My friends and I opted for a box of 4 @ $2 a piece.

1) blood orange glazed with candied orange
2) chocolate glazed with cocoa nibs
3) chocolate chipolte
4) cafe o' lei

They looked amazing and smelled amazing. I easily could have tried any other flavors, but felt good about our selection. Other options were lemon poppy, passionfruit, sugar, plain glaze, chocolate/Earl gray, toasted coconut, and lemon meringue. The most wonderful thing was that each donut looked unique and the thought behind each one was well thought out. You could see/watch the pastry creators through the viewing window working at keeping up with the demand. Simply amazing work ladies!!!

Onto the product...
There are no words...these doughnuts are light, crispy, chewy, fluffy, fresh, and delicious. The dough has just the right amount of sweetness and the glazes are superb. My personal favorite was the chocolate glazed with the nibs. The nibs acted as sprinkles and added the crunch. Yummy!!!

Dough gets an A+ from me!
