Opened in late 2017, we enjoyed visiting Crave Grounds (North Scottsdale) in March of 2018. Their niche (like so many others these days) is mini donuts--make your own. Their donuts are all cake donuts and there are at least 40 flavors. All flavors are based on yellow mini cake donuts--the variety is in the icings and toppings. On our maiden visit, we ordered: birthday cake (vanilla with rainbow sprinkles), cinnamon roll (maple, cinnamon sugar, cream cheese drizzle), coffee cake (mocha, cinnamon streusel, caramel drizzle), desert tortoise (chocolate, pecans, caramel drizzle),grand canyon (chocolate, peanut butter drizzle, chocolate drizzle, nutella drizzle, shaved chocolate, pinch of salt), chocolate chip, oreo, samoa (like the Girl Scout cookies), snickers, toffee coffee (mocha, health, caramel drizzle, pinch of sea salt), smore's, cinnamon sugar, ginger sugar, and plain frosted rounds of chocolate, lemon, mocha and vanilla. As is obvious from the list, Crave Grounds (they also do coffee) gets an A+ for marketing and concept. However, we did not sample the donuts until several hours later after dinner, and they get a C+ for flavor. They were truly adorable, but the flavor (disappointedly so) was greatly lacking.
