"we're grabbing some gourmet donuts" is what I heard from a family coming out of a grocery store.

Um, what is done to the donut that makes it gourmet? have some of us fallen for another marketing ploy to give us diabetes? 8D

There's a place not far from me that has some bomb donuts.

http://www.pvdonuts.com/

One of the girls that works there has an apartment upstairs from the place I get tattooed, and when she gets off work she brings a box of unsold doughnuts in for the artists in the shop. Whenever I'm there I get free doughnuts and they've never disappointed me. Have yet to actually go buy any, though.

high quality sugar and fried dough is still sugar and dough though? It seems just as outrageous as "diet cookies".

Do you not understand marketing? "Our doughnuts are better than their doughnuts"

I think they use more upscale ingredients in the glaze as well as having more varied flavor options.
They probably use really good quality chocolate or fruit in the glazes for example.

I understand good marketing.

to be fair, do you really need to market donuts? (back when I didn't care what I ate I used to eat krispy kremes and they barely did any marketing where I lived)

fancy donuts, like actual bacon and maple frosting on a donut for example.

Basically. A food connoisseur would approve.

I bet it has to do with their ingredients. But I do agree that it is odd since donuts are like a junk food.

Cake is a junk food but you can still buy cakes that are like a billion times more expensive than others.

Normally it's better quality ingredients. In reality it's just a way for companies to charge more.
