According to their site a low fat glazed is only 158 calories. If you're into donuts (which I'm not), this is probably the place to curb that craving!!

I would rather eat a fresh 300 calorie donut on occasion then order donuts off the internet......

A Chocolate Glaze donut from Tim Hortons is 260 calories, 10 grams of fat
A Chocolate Dip Donut is 210, 8 grams of fat

I can understand that.We (unfortunately) live in a town without a donut shop or even a bakery...so we order these for meetings at work, once a week.I got the idea from a great blog called priorfatgirl.This girl is amazing and in one post she had pictures and comments about donuts.Now we are addicted at work and look forward to our once weekly treat.

This is the reason I haven't bought them (well, that and the price ). Growing up I had a donut once a week (on Sunday morning), and I could taste the change when my local grocery store stopped making them themselves and started baking up frozen ones. So disappointing. I just imagine a frozen microwaved donut would make me regret spending all that money!

Thanks OP that was an interesting read and they look really yummy. We too dont have a donut shop and theyd have to taste better and be better for you than those found in the supermarkets here so why not. Im trying to get away from my sugar/sweet addiction but later on if I needed a treat this would be neat. I bookmarked it for later and sent it to a friend who orders every new thing out there so maybe Ill get to try it sooner hehehe

I never liked donuts but was curious to see if they were vegan and most of them are except for the low fat crumb topping and a couple of the fillings. The ingredients overall are blah though but I'm not sure what the ingredients in a regular donut look like, probably not much different.

My recent favorite thing though is microwave cupcakes. I can make them easily with a few ingredients and the good thing is it is a single serving which is critical to me.

Nelie, have you had Guiltless Gourmet? I don't know if they are vegan, but they have cakes and brownies - one serving in the pan, so not so dangerous!

Those donuts look good, except for the fact that my eyes are burning from that orange page.

Those look AMAZING .. wow. I don't even like donuts, but if they're combining oreos and bananas, I'm so there. LOL!

We don't have a donut shop either .. nor a bakery. We do have a couple of sweet shops, but they focus on crazy concoctions instead of old fashioned donuts. I do believe they were dipping twinkies in chocolate when I walked past yesterday.

I get asked to buy donuts from kids sometimes, for fundraisers, but that's really it. And I despise Krispy Kreme, so I'm usually good to stay away from the evil little things!
