And the Maple Quinnamon, with its hundred-layer dough rolled in cinnamon sugar, baked to perfection, and topped with a heavenly maple glaze and a final dusting of cinnamon, is a delightful twist on a classic favorite that leaves a lasting impression.

To complement these delectable pastries, Five Daughters Bakery also offers an oat milk nitro cold brew coffee in a convenient can. Smooth, creamy, and perfectly chilled, it's the ideal accompaniment to any pastry indulgence, providing a refreshing burst of energy that elevates the entire experience.

But perhaps what impressed me most was the excellent and friendly service provided by the young lady at the storefront. Her genuine warmth and hospitality made me feel like a valued guest from the moment I entered, and her passion for the pastries was evident in every recommendation and interaction. She went above and beyond to ensure that my experience was nothing short of exceptional, and her attention to detail and genuine care for her customers truly set the tone for a memorable visit.

I was so excited to finally find a place that I could get a gluten free doughnut. After five years of not being able to eat doghnuts. What I got was soft and moist so not gritty or anything but it's certainly not a doughnut. They are cakes. Good if your expecting a cake. Not very sweet. But definitely nowhere near a doughnut. I run my own bakery and make both gluten free and wheat containing desserts. I haven't tackled doghnuts yet but it was just a let down to be thinking I was buying a doughnut and getting a cake, which I'm more than capable of making for myself.

On to the associate. I called ahead of time to make sure it was worth my drive and asked what kind of gluten free options they had. I was given a long list of yummy sounding options, an apple fritter being on the list. So I figured that at least if I arrived and the doghnuts didn't seem very doughnut like, I could leave with an apple fritter which I also love and haven't had in a while.

When I showed up there were far fewer options labled as gluten free than I had originally been told. I asked about the discrepancy and the associate told me that some of the other options were gluten free just not REAL gluten free...... What? So I asked if she was talking about certified gluten free vs just not directly containing gluten where the other ones could have been cross contaminated. The associate didn't even know what I was saying. Continued to tell me that the other ones were gluten free but I should pick from the smaller labled list to be safe. The options labled as gluten free really were not appealing flavor profiles, I would have much rather preferred an apple fritter, so I asked to see an ingredients list. Which I was told there wasn't one. So after some persisting l, the associate did contact the manager to ask about the ingredients on the apple fritter, which I highly appreciate. And it was confirmed that there was both all purpose flour and bread flour (BOTH WHEAT BASED FLOUR MIXES) in the fritter.

Thankfully I didn't take the original word. And I appreciative that the associate reached out to management but employees ad places offering options for dietary restrictions REALLY need to be better educated than this to safely serve the customers.

And it was definitely not worth the hour and a half round trip drive to end up with cake instead of doughnuts. They will just go in the trash which is a...

O.M.G. It is mind blowing that Five Daughters Bakery isn’t listed as the best donuts in Georgia. Granted, I haven’t tried all Georgia has to offer in terms of donuts, but these are BY FAR the best that I have tried.

It can be kind of tricky to find. It’s in the Westside Provisions District, right before or right after crossing the bridge over the railroad, depending on which side you’re coming from.

Here are the donuts we tried, ranked in order of preference: Chocolate Sea Salt Purist Maple Glazed

Chocolate Sea Salt and Purist were pretty much tied. The layers in all of them are perfect. The glazes just melt in your mouth. The outside has a perfect crunchiness to it. Somehow they even put flavor and filling on the inside. As these are only the second croissant donuts I’ve tried, I’m certainly no expert, but these knock it out of the park. The other one I’ve tried doesn’t even come CLOSE.

I don’t know how much they cost because the signs were blocked by the donuts in the display. It appears prices range from $2.50-$4.50. They also have vegan and paleo donuts available.

These are the most amazing donuts. Disclaimer that we only tried their croissant donuts (also known as 100 layer donuts). But I would go back tomorrow to try more.

CAN’T RECOMMEND...
