If you want a cute-looking good fluffy donut with all the gimmicks, recent trending decorated doughnuts, or a Raider's donut, look no further than Pinkbox. Consistency also varies between locations such amount of jelly filling.
The short and sweet:
Pinkbox doughnuts has decent unique donuts like the creme brulee donut and cute Raider donuts. Don't expect consistency with any jelly-filled donut.
If you're looking for a very good simple donut done well and can spare the trip, go down to Ronald's Donuts on Spring Mountain and Decatur.
When you step into Pinkbox, you smell the sugar in the air and see an extreme amount of pink, which really does stimulate your senses enough to buy a donut. As you get ready to order, you will be surprised by a large number of donut varieties. Once you get out of shock, you order one or many colorful donuts and leave.
We ordered a John Lemon donut and a Tres Leches donut. We've been to a different Pinkbox location and ordered a few jelly-filled donuts like the John Lemon, and have never been disappointed, until now. We kept taking bites out of the John Lemon and never got to the lemon filling until we literally reached the end. The total amount of fruity filling we got from the John Lemon was the size of a marble.
The Tres Leches was donut we attempted to try many times, and Pinkbox actually had some for once. Upon bite after bite, this donut has a similar case to the John Lemon, but the difference is somehow, only the end of the donut was soaked wet with Tres Leches. The rest of the Tres Leches donut was a dry cake donut.
Aside from the unique donuts that are too many to list from Pinkbox, their OG donuts, which are your standard glazed twists and regular donuts, are just ok. If you want a solid regular donut, head down to Ronald's Donuts on Spring Mountain/Decatur in front of Sapporo Revolving Sushi you will not be disappointed.
Overall, Pinkbox itself is a really neat concept for fun donuts, especially when executed consistently. Yet if you go to one location with really good and filled donuts then go to another with barely any filling in your donuts, you just feel disappointed.
