Welcome. I started blogging about donuts to coincide with the 2016 presidential inauguration. Initially, I explained my obsession with donuts like this: “they’re delicious, it's silly, and in a world so riddled with serious issues, donuts provide comic, tasty relief.” Over the last few years I have come to realize that a love of donuts is universal and can translate and enable dialogue across cultural, political, economic class, and gender lines. I haven’t met a cab or LYFT driver who was not willing to engage in a discussion about donuts—which gradually evolved into other topics. So, with that, I’d like your help. Please share your donut experiences with me (at wendonutopia@gmail.com) and while you’re munching on donuts, use that experience as an opportunity to listen to others' points of view. It works.

Yes, Alice, there is an artisan, small batch, “quality over quantity” donut purveyor in St. Louis—it’s Vincent Van Doughnut. Originally a doughnut truck (in 2013), VVD opened in mid 2015 in Clayton and has been serving up delectable treats ever since. They offer both yeast donuts (maple bacon, lemon lavender, French toast and beyond) and cake donuts (chocolate covered chocolate cake topped with ganache along with vanilla glazed, German chocolate, blueberry and more). Their donuts are beautiful and delicious. Worth a stop when you’re in the St Louis area.
