Many historians credit the invention of the modern doughnut to a sailor, a Dutchman named Hanson Gregory. His mother, Elizabeth, was known to make a good olykoek, or "oily cake." She made some for him…
Regular Dozen Donuts I asked for maple bars and they are the best maple bars I've had in a long while. they're crispy and fluffy and so soft. they also gave me some extras and the pumpkin glaze is so good! 🥰

My order was recieved at 10am and my mix of maple & chocolate bars, jelly, and old fashioned looked good. However, the taste is lacking. The maple bars in particular tasted very strong of oil like they didn't set on a rack to dry after frying. They were also dense seemed to be going stale with a glaze that was less maple and more sugar flavored. They reminded me of ones you can get at the Walmart bakery. The two good things is that they are all generously sized and there was lots of raspberry filling in all of the jelly donuts. Those may be worth revisiting.

I don't know who made my maple bacon bars on 10/21/23 around 11:30ish p.m. but...chefs kiss! Fantastic work, you my friend are an artist. Not only was the bacon to bar ratio CRAZY, the way the bar was cooked in such a way to give it a crispy buttery bottom to support that sweet maple and mountain of salty, delicious bacon. Perfection. Dare I say it was the best Maple bacon bar...ever?

my son and I tried a couple of donuts from the Heavenly Dozen Donuts and we both felt like the oil they were fried it in tastes old or needs to be changed. If they tasted better I would agree that one donut would be enough for 2 people so good price. please change or filter your oil. I won't mind buying if they tasted better.

The best traditional donuts in Portland. They make every style of classic donut, excellently. After ordering probably twenty dozen donuts from here, there were a couple soggy fritters here and there, but otherwise the quality is impeccable. Standouts are the buttermilk bars, cake / ring donuts with the crease on top, Boston cremes, crullers, and apple-filled bear claws. They're great about special instructions (but do remember they can't have everything all the time). I still love them even though one time they were out of chilas (the coffee slushy) and they sent a cranberry juice instead lol.
