Neither! Donuts are revolting. The smell of donuts frying is awful. I can't even walk near a donutshop! NoNoNoNoNO! I mean...I don't like deep fried food in general but that weird combination of sugar and flour frying in fat is particularly revolting. Perhaps because I didn't grow up with them or because it's genetic....I don't know but ....no thank you!

Whenever there was a box of doughnuts at work, the cake doughnuts were always last to be eaten, if they were eaten at all. Poor lonely little cake doughnuts didn't feel the love. As a Californian, I do feel cheated that we don't have the seasonal Cider Doughnuts that I've been hearing about over the last few years because I love Spiced Apple Cider! The doughnuts must be a real treat! P.S. I thought that the coffee glaze in the video was a classic maple glaze at first.

@@KitarraChaosWeaver - Good! That means more donuts for me!

9:30 I remember following a Japanese bread dough recipe for the first time and adding the softened butter. The instructions literally said, "It's gonna look like you messed up. It's gonna look unrecoverable. This is PERFECTLY NORMAL, KEEP KNEADING." And the writer was right, the bread was delicious, albeit exhausting to make.

Yeasted! (Feel free to count my vote more than once.) I never had a deep love of Dunkin’ (grew up with these) or donuts in general until having Krispy Kreme. It used to be that KrispyK turned on the HOT sign and would even sometimes give you a free fresh donut right out of the glaze! Nothing like it. ❤️ BUT ALSO…if you have the creme filled, that filling is currently the closest thing I’ve tasted to the real Hostess filling in the 70’s (these days Hostess filling is some kind of nasty lard). So the filly KrispyK’s are what provide childhood memories…and THAT is my emotional support ring!

When it comes to cake vs yeasted donuts, I choose Dan. Seriously, this series is so good. Please make more

Yeasted doughnuts, donuts, ESRs for the win! Those lovely, airy rings of absolute deliciousness are the very best.

If I could only have one type... It would be cake. Many years ago, the culinary program at a college I attended set up a donut fry in a campus parking lot on the last day of Spring quarter. I was on my way home when I smelled the unmistakable aroma of fried dough. Drawn by a force beyond my control, I found myself in the queue to buy a bag of fresh donuts. I purchased a half-dozen piping hot cake donuts, and consumed them all before completing the one mile walk home. I remember it like it was yesterday!

Worked at a doughnut shop in college. There are no better donuts than fresh donuts. That's the "magic" of Krispy Kreme, they're pumping out fresh ones all day. Try a day old KK, and it's usually worse than one sold in a traditional shop. My favorite: apple fritters. So many actually crispy bits, while still having the chew of a yeasted doughnut.

I can’t decide between yeasted and cake doughnuts. I love them both. Really depends on my mood and appetite as to which one (or both) I’ll get.

I love both types very much but a sour cream glazed cake doughnut is my all time favourite.

My husband loves yeasted, but I love cake doughnuts. Enjoyed your video!

I'm a cake donuts gal. I don't mind yeasted donuts, but they're a little too cloyingly sweet for my taste. The full-bodied texture of the cake variety provides a more balanced counterpart to the sweet frosting/topping.

Yeasted are usually just bland on their own. It's the using that makes them sweet. If anything, cake is sweeter, as it usually has sugar in the batter, whereas yeasted don't have much if any.

Only on special occasions do I buy fresh donuts. But when I do, I start with 1 sugar yeasted raised and finish with a plain cake. YUM 😋

Hi Dan!! I love the show! I'm always down for an old fashioned CAKE donut!! Thank you!!

Cake donuts all the way! Duck Donuts is the absolute best place for them. Fresh out of the fryer smothered with whatever sweet toppings you want!

Congratulations!!! You are now my favorite human❤

Grilled cheese donuts are so good. Did them for my birthday one year. Prefer it with butterkäse.

I can’t make a final call! Warm fresh cake donuts are so incredible…but glazed yeasted really do just go straight to all the pleasure centers in my brain…

Me, Cake all the way, my wife, yeast…. 50 50 in this household. Great episode as always!

omg....my aunt used to visit and always brought us glazed, chocolate glazed, and maple glazed (yeast!) donuts from a shop in Lodi, Wisconsin. Light, airy, sweet....HEAVEN with a hole in the middle! Though I DO love me a plain donut to dunk into coffee!

Really enjoyed this style of video Dan! But I still like blueberry cake doughnuts best🤤

Cake, cake, and cake. Preferably from Dunkin Donuts. I don't get the Krispy Kreme thing... crazy, crazy sweet 😝. Cake donuts: crunchy on the outside, satisfying on the inside - tender with just a hint of sweetness and richness from the frying. A great way to start the day. 😇

Love a fresh cake donut with specks of nutmeg. I'm a West Coast girl and our yeast donuts are high and fluffy, and that is delicious! Krispy Kreme donuts are dense and they train the staff to pull them out before a white ring forms. Not a fan. We still have a few Winchell's here and they have yeast donuts that are very high and fluffy. Yummy!

Cake donuts hands down! Especially when maple frosted in fall.

While I like yeasted doughnuts just fine, almost any cake doughnut beats any yeasted one, especially sour-cream or old-fashioned glazed, but for a true mouth frenzy I seek out a walnut cruller. Orange crullers are #2.

Honestly, I have no preference. I love both kinds. After giving it some thought, I do tend to eat the yeasted variety more often, so maybe that's a better qualifier. 🙂

I'm definitely a cake donuts person. Chocolate cake and blueberry cake donuts are my top two, for sure. However, I'd be lying if I said I'd ever turned my nose up at a good yeast donut. Maple glaze yeast donuts get my number 3 spot. Donuts are just good.

Yeasted doughnuts are my favorite. BUT Iwill never refuse a cake doughnut. Thanjks for the great content Dan.

Great video

Lol... emotional support rings. I am so going to steal that line and use it all the time! Seriously though, Dan is absolutely correct, yeasted Donuts are definitely the way to go! I don't have anything against a cake donut, and I enjoy them rather often. But the extra chewiness and density of a yeast donut just can't be topped by any other kind. And Krispy Kreme kicks the living crap out of Duncan any day. But it always puzzled me why they call it Krispy kreme. The blueberry cake Donuts are some of the best they sell. I'm just not the biggest fan of the glazed donuts with the plain powdered sugar glaze. I'd much rather have maple or chocolate. What I want to know is this. Where the hell do I get one of those donut cutters that makes the ring shape? When I last looked, I couldn't find one.

I love both, but it also depends on what I'm doing and season. Winter I like a heavy donut with coffee or tea. Warmer months yeast donuts with cold Milk 🥰

Yeasted!!! They are so light and fluffy that you can eat a bunch at one sitting. 🍩❤

My sister became best friends with the local, late night donut maker in college. Changed our lives for a little while, the extra 'college 15' changed it back! But, yeasted gets my vote every day! Love your videos!

But sometimes I really want a yeast donut with Bavarian cream filling and chocolate icing .

Yeasted. There is nothing like a fresh and warm raised glazed donut. That being said, I super appreciate a plain cake donut that's crispy in the center and warm. It is my go-to now that I'm trying to consume less sugar. I am lucky to live in a town with multiple mom and pop donut shops that are all highly capable. Thanks for the deep dive on donuts!
