Doughnut’s voodoo magic

voodoo doughnuts

Doughnuts are about as American as French fries and apple pie, but you’ve never seen them quite like this. Voodoo Doughnuts, Voodoo Doughnut, based in Portland, Oregon, is baking outrageous and over-the-top doughnuts ranging from bacon glazed and bubblegum to NyQuil-laced and voodoo doll shaped.

Many customers drive from hours away and stand in ridiculously long lines for the chance to nosh on Voodoo’s fried dough goodness. Why jump through all of these hoops? Some say it’s the eclectic variety of flavors while others say it’s the dining experience. Whatever the reason, one thing is clear, Voodoo Doughnut has definitely created a one-of-a-kind experience that brings back nostalgic childhood memories and pushes the doughnut-making envelope. They are not afraid to test the water and create pastries that are controversial both in flavor and cultural context. Nothing is off limits, nothing. If you don’t believe us, check out their website for the full menu, www.voodoodoughnut.com.

What sparked our fire: The instant mouth-watering sensation we experienced after seeing these doughnuts for the first time. But seriously, the way local bakeries have no shame in pushing the limits.

Will other restaurants jump on the bandwagon to attract more customers?

Enjoy!
