A BAKER'S WIFE
Bring your coin purse, cuz that's all you need.
At .57 cents per donut, you won't need to review the balance of your checking account before ordering like some establishments.
I'm a big believer in "You get what you pay for" but please don't interpret A Baker's Wife's low prices as being low-quality. In my opinion, what you're getting is honesty. They could charge more per doughnut and people would pay that, but the vibe I get inside A Baker's Wife is a community driven business. Each time I've visited it has been swarming with people who couldn't be more excited to be there. Families, children, young couples, dogs, etc etc etc. It's literally the perfect place to be on a sunny Sunday morning.
Their cake doughnuts are a revelation. Literally the best I've ever eaten.
As you'll come to find out, I prefer filled doughnuts, especially those with goofy shit all over the tops. However, these cake doughnuts are too legit to quit. They're moist, airy and the perfect size. Those that are frosted, are done so to perfection. The frosting is both thick and creamy and travels with the doughnut for each bite. What does that even mean?
Pet Peeve #164
Biting into a doughnut and the hard, wax-like frosting across the entire surface uplifts and is dislodged from the remainder of the doughnut. Which then either falls to the ground or forces you to make a frosting & plain-doughnut sandwich for the remainder of the treat.
You're not doing it right unless you're eating them in 2's or 3's. Also, jump around a little bit. Keep your taste buds constantly stimulated as it zig-zags through optimum flavor terrain.
I also bought a cookie and caramel roll during my latest trip. Although they were pretty tasty, I probably won't get them again. I am, however, a fan of their cream-cheese filled chocolate cupcake. Super tasty. I'd recommend cutting it in half to eat versus pulling it apart though.
Grab the family, throw 'em in a wagon and bike to A Baker's Wife. It'll be a hit, I promise. If you get lost, just look for the cow on the sidewalk.
Pro Tip: Pair your doughnuts with the finest coffee served at the Angry Catfish, just two storefronts down. The Nitro Cold Brew is my personal favorite.
I promise Margie and I didn't coordinate this.
