I was running an errand for a friend in Clermont and she told me I had to stop at Donut King. All I can say is wow! Donut King was opened by Lance Johnston in 2007 on Hwy 27 in Minneola Fl. Lance grew up New Orleans making donuts. You can see his New Orleans influence with menu items like King Cake. Donut King has a Winter Park location that opened 6 years later and their newest shop is in Leesburg.
All donuts are made in house every day and the selection is vast and mouth watering.. In addition to donuts they have croissants, bagels, muffins, and biscuits. They also sell Castle burgers, wings, chicken baskets, shrimp, sausage, sandwiches, gumbo, and jambalaya. They are open 24 hours.
As soon as you walk in the door you are hot with the most delicious scent. Everything looked amazing and it was so hard to decide. The maple bacon donut is very popular and they had other donuts topped with candy and cereal. I finally picked a huge cinnamon roll enrobed in icing for only $1.29. They claim to make the best baked goods you have ever tasted and they just may be right. This is another place that I am sorry I don't live closer to. Fortunately my daughter lives in Winter Park so I will be hitting up that location when I visit her.
