The guilt is no longer inevitable. After a morning meeting, Girlawhirl and her officemates can now go about the rest of their days without a single regret or group lament over the consumption of donuts. It's not as if they've grown resistant to the power of β€œthe glaze.” On the contrary, Girlawhirl's knees melt as soon as the smell of cinnamon buns makes its way from the conference room. But why the sudden gush over treats that have been on her no-way-to-start-the-day list? One reason: Holey Donuts. . .

While a traditional fried donut has anywhere between 15 and 25 grams of fat – and a cinnamon bun can have up to 55 – the folks at Holey Donuts don't fry, slashing the fat down to 3-4 grams for a donut and only 5 for a cinnamon bun. The cooking method's top secret (translation: patent pending) but the rest of the process is handmade. There are no machines squirting filling or plopping down icing, every donut gets individual attention.

 

From traditional glazed rounders like Low Fat Vanilla Crumb (148 calories/3g fat) to superstar stuffed combinations like Boston Cream Oreo Cookie (218 calories/4g fat) and Coconut Cream Pie (209 calories/4 g fat) and even little donut hole bites, Girlawhirl really can indulge without obsessing.

 

But when it comes to the Jumbo Cinnamon Buns (340 calories/5g fat) she has trouble stopping with just one.

 

Shipped frozen and equally delicious thawed or heated in the microwave, the freezer in Girlawhirl's office is kept well stocked. And attendance at meetings has increased exponentially.
