Family Kane: Handmade donuts- from Saugus with love (Originally posted 3/16)

You can combine it with a croissant. You can dunk it in coffee. But a real donut stands on its own!

Kane’s Donuts (www.kanesdonuts.com) are REAL donuts!

Not only does each one of their over 200 rotating varieties (including Snickers, maple bacon, Hibiscus, creamsicle, crème brulee, and what Travel and Leisure rightfully labeled the best Honey-dipped in the world) look like a mouth-watering work of art, each morsel explodes with the rich nuanced flavors that can only come from fresh, often organic, and always perfectly-balanced ingredients (including locally-sourced eggs and dairy from Peabody, flour from Andover, berries from Maine and the purest honey) and the love that can only come from homemade family recipes.

Founded in Saugus over 60 years ago, Kane’s has since expanded to Boston’s Financial District and, most recently, to a pop-up store at The Street in Chestnut Hill. Though the last of these is set to close at the end of March, the family behind Kane’s is apparently looking for more places to share their love. In the meantime (and always), Kane’s is available for the thousands who seek them out from far and wide. No matter where you get them or how, each one will be fresh and delicious.

While their reputation as a top place to get the hole truth is secure, Kane’s also offers mountainous cupcakes and pan-busting muffins, as well as a coffee roll that comes in regular and (naturally) “family-sized” and that can make a great alternative to a birthday cake. Speaking of special occasions, Kane’s also caters and, no matter when you call, the order will be made the same day as the event to ensure you get the freshest and most memorable treats available. Kane’s is so dedicated to customer happiness (let alone satisfaction) that one customer with Celiac set the family on a three-year mission that has resulted in a scrumptuous set of allergen-certified gluten-free donuts that are indistinguishably delicious compared to their glutened siblings.

If you insist on a beverage to accompany your fresh-baked reward, Kane’s offers Peet’s coffee (hot or iced), Spindrift soda, and other liquid refreshments.

So come taste the difference that 60 years of family love makes. You will surely want to be adopted!
