I do love getting Dixie Cream Doughnuts (Donuts). There are two spots in St. Lucie County. First and foremost is the original in Ft. Pierce, off of Okeechobee I believe. Secondly, the PSL shop off of Bayshore Boulevard, more near PSL BLVD than any other landmark I can think of which folks would know like the back of their hand. After much confusion and asking several times (three X's probably) it turns out - FOR SURE, HAND DOWN) the two stores are not of one owner or baker or mind, what have you...right? Well, the OG in Ft. Pierce, is not an eat in place and for good reasons, I can tell you the customer service is awesome or what it needs to be in such a small shop in an, "almost miss it if you blink, plaza". However, it's a bakers bakery, flour here and there no frills, just chills. (singing) "The chills that you spill up my back keep me filled With satisfaction when we're done, Satisfaction of what's to come. I couldn't ask for another' mmhmm Dee-Lite for those born in the late 70's or early 80's feel me. Bayshore is good. They make my favorite apple fritter good and big, but the Ft. Pierce store makes it even freakin betta. Dinner Sized apple fritters. Oh, every doughnut is out of town, to use the expression. Totally homemade and a FP staple. Look, they open at 6AM maybe? And, I'm going to use poetic license because it's somewhere along this scenario, but I don't remember for sure. Open at 6am - sell out and locks the doors by 9am. Bayshore doesn't do that! There is so much to be said for food establishments of legend and not many stick around in St. Lucie, or FP in particular. Take my word, bypass bayshore if it's early and just speak, 'dixie cream, fort pierce - directions' into your smartphone and follow the prompts. You will not be sorry. in the early to lat 2000;s, I worked at Lawnwood Trauma in the Operating Room. On the Weekend, one sweet nurse would hit up Dixie Cream and she got just enough glazed doughnuts to accommodate staff for the low staff weekends. You literally had to grab one or two and hide them in your locker, otherwise other departments would sneak into our break room...Yes, they knew the score and had us all frantic blaming each other. Ahem, Dunkin D's does NOT create 'The Purge...

Read moreWe are frequent customers of Dixie Cream. I posted pictures on Google maps and one picture has reached 6,000 views. I go into Dixie this past weekend. I asked the girl at the counter if they had any whoopie pie doughnuts. She said no. (She wasn't very pleasant at all) I told her I got that there before and wondered why they don't ever make them. Every time I have come in they have been out. She informed me that " chocolate was to expensive to make " so they don't do that. You have lost my business. Why wouldn't you want to appeal to your customers and listen to what they want. We are the reason you are in business.
We decided to give it another go. Let's be honest they have the best doughnuts around. No denying that . I was a little shocked to noticed the cashier not changing her gloves when grabbing doughnuts , on the cash register and accepting money . I wish they would be a little more cautious using a proper dispensing method of...
