Grumpy Donuts

We can assure you, that Grumpy Donuts will make you anything but grumpy. Rather, these delicious hand-made doughnuts are a work of art – simple and flavourful with the perfect ratio of doughnut to icing. The Choc Oreo Peanut Butter and Maple Brown Sugar are nothing short of brilliant. You can find these in a handful of cafes including Single Origin and Bread & Butter, otherwise order online for an unforgettable experience.

If you prefer having them alongside coffee, you can find them at these lucky cafes: Mecca in Ultimo, Pablo & Rusty’s in Lane Cove, The Baron in Castle Hill, The Tuckshop in Glenhaven, Sifters Espresso in Wollongong, Salvage Coffee in Artarmon, The General Eatery in Dulwich Hill and Gather Coffee House in Appin.

Shortstop Donuts

Available in both Melbourne and Sydney, there is no stopping when it comes to Shortstop doughnuts. Soft, chewy and fluffy goodness with all that glaze, toppings and fillings. Their sea salt and Australian honey cruller, classic cinnamon and cardamom are some of the top-selling items in their menu.

Brewtown’s renowned flaky cronuts are a must-try! An Aussie twist on the NYC Cronut, this is an indulgence of croissant pastry and doughnut mixture that will put a smile on your face. Try anything from the classic jam-filled, glazed and cinnamon ice cream to the more adventurous Cherry Ripe and chocolate custard doughnuts – they’re all delicious.

This place is home to CoNuts – ice cream cones made of deep fried dough rolled in cinnamon and sugar. A genius reinvention of the traditional ice cream cone and doughnut, you can choose from an array of soft serve flavours and add in chocolate bars, pretzels and marshmallows!
