    Auntie Ruth's Doughnuts - Do I even need to say anything

    Auntie Ruth's Doughnuts

    My niece sent me here while I was visiting and I shall forever be grateful. Best doughnuts and soft…read morepretzels I have ever had anywhere. ANYWHERE! The doughnuts are double the size of most doughnuts and doubly good. The pretzels are huge, butter basted, warm and delicious. It's not inexpensive but the tastes will cure you of any sticker shock. I spent $40+ for 1/2 dozen regular-1/2 dozen chocolate dipped doughnuts and 6 pretzels with dipping sauces and didn't regret a penny of what I spent. Came back on my way out of town and got a pretzel dog and pretzel for breakfast as well as some doughnuts for later. The food trailer in some of the pictures has been replaced by a building on the edge of Troyer's parking lot. You order at the window and most times there's going to be a line. It's a takeout business so you are on your own if you want to eat right away. The folks are friendly and efficient and orders are filled quickly once you get to the window. If you want to get a preview just search Auntie Ruth's on YouTube and enjoy. It's how I learned that there are a bunch of them in East Tennessee. I just know that if I didn't have enough incentive already to visit my niece then Auntie Ruth's finishes the job.

    If you're expecting a typical every day donut coming here you're very wrong... These donuts are…read morehuge and they're a little different than a regular donut shop. It seems that they glaze all of them and then they top it with which ever one you decide. I got the espresso one but ended up wiping off most of the frosting because it's just too sweet. But it was very good. I also got the pretzel which is also ginormous. Next time I'll ask for it without salt because even wiping off all the salt it was still very salty but it was very very good and soft. If you don't have time and your rush then don't bother coming here because it was probably about a half an hour wait in line.

    PETEY! PETEY! PETEY!!…read more Last weekend was the first weekend of the Georgia Apple Festival and I knew that this was my best chance to locate a mini-donut vendor. I love those little donuts but they aren't always available in the larger markets so when I see them, I get very excited. My daughter and I reviewed the vendor list ahead of schedule and when we saw this vendor (Petey's Doughnuts), we knew that we would be having donuts for breakfast. Yay!! I also knew that I would have to pack my own powdered sugar because you either get very little or they only offer the cinnamon and sugar combination. I ONLY want a generous amount of powdered sugar on my donuts. Prior to Petey, we had to see the caricaturist because if you aren't first in line, you can have a crazy wait. When we arrived at Petey's, there was no one in line and the donuts were hot off the press. We purchased a dozen that were half the price of the ones found at the Atlanta area festivals. We immediately started dumping them into our bag of powdered sugar and devouring them. It was like heaven, like what I imagine a carnivore experiences after six months in a vegan prison. As my husband approaches us, I lift my head long enough to have him purchase another order. At one point I notice the owner just looking at us as if we were eating an infant. She slowly approaches us and offers napkins which we gladly accept. She backs away only to reappear minutes later to offer us a paper bowl. Too Late! It is over, it is done. I accept the bowl, fold it and place it in my bag, (just in case). Ahhhh, that moment alone was worth getting up before 5 am and making the trip to the festival. It was definitely the high-light of my visit. Petey's Doughnuts are absolutely delicious: fresh, hot and just crazy good. You get to watch every phase of the process from the dough going into the machine to the little donuts popping out and cooking to golden perfection. If watching this does not get you in a mouthwatering mood, something is definitely wrong with you! You will definitely want to be on the look out for this vendor at the up and coming fall festivals. Well done Petey, I will definitely see you next year if not sooner! Prepare to be stalked!
