I can't even remember where I heard about Smoke and Donuts, but I immediately looked them up so that I could go check them out! And it was amazing. The donuts are cooked to order and come out warm. They are cake donuts with different glazes and toppings available. Also, available as the bun on a slider because the food trucks other specialty is bbq. Just writing this makes me want to look up when they'll be close by again.

The slider was amazing, nice warm donuts and good bbq. The glazed donuts were also amazing, but I couldn't really tell the differences between the flavorings in the glaze. You could also get it with brisket as a topping which one of my friends did. 5/5, you have to try them!

My uncle graciously brought a whole dozen donuts to share when we all went up to South Carolina recently. My bff, who works near their store, has also been bugging me to try them, so try I did! 

They were all cake donuts, and not ginormous (which, aforementioned bff means you can eat a whole one without feeling like you stuffed yourself!). My favorite was surprisingly not the maple bacon one but the coconut chocolate one on the left in the photo below. 

The unfrosted ones on the right were also a nice break from toppings overload. I'd give them a 4/5 as a bakery. If you prefer cake donuts to raised, you'd probably give them a 5/5 so make sure you try some if you're ever on the Florida coast!

Sorry for the long hiatus, I would like to say I gave up donuts for my weight, but I just got lazy about updating. I definitely have still been eating donuts...

But this isn't one you eat! This is for wearing only! Check out their website and then droll over some lovely footwear.
