“Doughnuts—is there anything they can’t do?” While Homer Simpson is quite possibly the most famous dad with an affinity for doughnuts, he isn’t the only one. Whether your dad loves a yeast-raised glazed doughnut, the crunch of an old fashioned, or a smattering of toppings, the doughnut options highlighted below have you covered, and they all ship nationwide. With Father’s Day coming up soon, you’ll want to place an order ASAP to ensure they arrive on time.
Doughnut Plant Choose Your Own Cake Doughnuts
It’s no secret that I love doughnuts, and of all the doughnuts I’ve eaten in New York City, Doughnut Plant makes my favorites (three words: coconut cream doughnut). I live in Florida now, but thankfully Doughnut Plant ships some of their cake doughnut flavors nationwide via Goldbelly. For this 6-pack, you can pick up to three different flavors. Available flavors change throughout the year, but if you see Tres Leches on there, make sure it’s one of the flavors you choose—you won’t regret it.
