Wicked Donuts
Blueberry Fritter – Blueberry Vanilla Glaze
Pineapple Fritter – Brown Sugar, Pineapple Sunshine Glaze
Apple Pear Fritter – Spiced Apple Pear Vanilla Cardamom Glaze
Now serving Sin City for 18 months it was Sunday around noon that a quick trip was made to Wicked Donuts, now a well-oiled machine and home to Fritters worth driving out of the way for.
Already discussing Pastry Chef Robert Teddy’s background here, 5:30am daily openings doing nothing to diminish his joyous spirit, it was from the seasonal menu that three styles were tasted, each featuring real Vanilla Bean, fresh Fruit and expert frying-times.
Home to 27 daily flavors any discussion of Wicked Donuts should begin with the base, buttery Brioche peaking through between ample amounts of Fruit with Glazes designed to amplify Blueberry and Pineapple while Apple-Pear takes a more complex route to success via the bold aromatics of Cardamom.
FIVE STARS: Set back by a global pandemic and protracted “soft opening,” an experienced palate will immediately notice Wicked Donuts quality dwarves anyone locally from Toppings-to-Base, while prices continue to trend lower than the bigger “names.”
RECOMMENDED: Blueberry Fritter, Pineapple Fritter.
AVOID: N/A.
TIP: 5:30am until sold-out daily. Check the website for online ordering and follow @wicked_donuts and @wickeddonutsusa on Social.
WHAT THE STARS MEAN: 5 World Class, 4 Excellent, 3 Good, 2 Fair, 1 Poor.
