Bright Spot Donuts may not have a permanent Raleigh storefront, but its regular pop-ups around the city have become local events. Founded by former Boulted Bread bakers, the team crafts yeast-raised and cake donuts in creative flavors like Vietnamese coffee, key lime, and tahini honey. The pop-up model keeps offerings limited and highly anticipated; WRAL Out & About and Indy Week both praise Bright Spot’s inventive approach and the palpable passion behind each batch. For donut lovers seeking something new, keeping an eye on their social media pays off.
