El Camino Donuts — Restaurant in Paris

I came to this donut shop this morning. What a cute shop, with art, decor and donuts. There are some seating options, but no tables. I got there and 7:30 am. My goal was to taste a few donuts and a cinnamon roll. The staff must have been having an off day, they were not pleasant to interact with and got admitted when I asked what the price was for a dozen donuts (donuts are individually priced $1.50-4.95/each… not sold by the dozen). The selection was limited at 7:30. No cinnamon rolls until at least 9 I was informed. No glazed were available, only basic cake donuts, a maple bar, old fashioned and hand pies. I tried everything that was available. Summary:

Old fashioned: was delicious, and much larger than most old fashioned you find. One of the best old fashioned I have had.

Maple bar: maple glaze with bacon was delicious, the raised donut had separated from the outside skin and the cavity was dripping with oil.

Cake donuts: the presentation was great, nice color glaze with sprinkles, the outside was crispy and inside was soft. They were very greasy, with the bottoms being oil soaked.

Hand pies: the lemon hand pie was ok. Outside was thick, but the lemon filling was sweet with minimal...

🌟 Five Stars – Absolute Carb Heaven! 🌟

If I could give this place six stars, I would. Let’s talk about the cinnamon rolls first — because WOW. These are not your average rolls. They’re massive, gooey in the best way, and perfectly swirled with cinnamon-sugar magic. The edges are golden with a slight crisp, but the inside? Pillow-soft and melt-in-your-mouth tender. One bite and I was plotting my next visit before I even finished.

Now, onto the sourdough bread — it’s basically the gold standard. Crusty on the outside with that ideal, crackly finish, and the inside is beautifully airy with just enough chew. The tang is chef’s kiss — balanced and subtle, not too sour, but just enough to know you’re dealing with something naturally fermented and crafted with real skill. I’ve had a lot of sourdough in my day, but this one honestly sets a new bar. Toast it, butter it, sandwich it, or just tear off a hunk and eat it plain....

We passed El Camino Donuts on our way to a potluck so we decided to stop in and get a dozen. I'm not a huge fan of donuts normally but these are really good! I do love an old fashioned donut and theirs was perfect. They had one with chocolate icing that was excellent too. The cinnamon rolls are quite large but perfectly cooked. They had a few options for cake donuts(my husbands favorite) and they were great too. I didn't get a chance to taste the filled donuts but our friends were impressed with them so I'll have to get more the next time I pass through Paris. If you're in the Bear Lake area this place is definitely worth a trip to Paris for breakfast or a...
