    Balsamic Fig Donut
    Ruby C.

    Wait why are the ratings so low!? These 100% vegan donuts have literally converted me into a donut person. Fluffy, light, and not too sweet (asian tastebuds approved), with real fruit flavors that actually shine through. I usually find donuts overly sweet and artificial, but Cloudy Donuts completely changed my mind. These were not only pretty but with just the right amount of light frosting. To make them vegan, they use applesauce instead of eggs, coconut milk in place of dairy, and vegetable shortening instead of butter. My bf is severely lactose intolerant, but also has a sweet tooth. I was so glad to see him enjoying these without worrying about the aftermath. *Lemon Pistachio Cinnamon Roll Fluffy and bright, with a pop of lemon and a nutty pistachio crunch. *Orange Vanilla Bean Donut Like a creamsicle in donut form -- citrusy, sweet, and super airy, garnished with candied orange. *Raspberry Rosé Donut A little tart from the raspberry. My bf devoured it in one bite lol it was a 10000/10 from him. *Balsamic Fig Donut Juicy, jammy, and surprisingly perfect with that tangy balsamic kick. *Lemon Blueberry Poundcake How is it this moist and light and VEGAN?! I even found lemon peel bits on the crust.

    Got the double chocolate and brown butter chocolate chip this time and it was so delicious!!! Just love this 2 flavors!!

    Vegan! It taste indulgent without being too heavy. The texture inside is fluffy. I had a mini powdered sugar and a brown sugar chocolate chip. For $6.00, it's a bit steep when it's a slightly above average doughnut.

    Viewed the shop when walking by, Lemon, glazed, sweet potato, blueberry. Taste fresh .

    Fantastic donuts. Can't wait to go back next month when we visit.

    Great donuts. Literally clouds. We loved them so much we are planning to go back when we visit next month!

    what a sweet surprise - this is a black owned vegan donut shop. my friend and i stumbled on this spot and we tried the brown butter pecan mini donut, berry olive oil mini donut and the lemon blueberry pancake pound cake. everything was a 10/10. Felt very light and perfectly doughy and nice touch of sweetness. the flavors are a clear and a balanced presence in each bite. John helped us out and he was so kind in offering a taste before purchasing. the vibe in the store is bright, simple and welcoming amidst busy soho streets. My favorite was the pound cake but highly recommend for a sweet vegan treat!

    This spot is special. The ambiance, the creativity, the flavors, easily a 10 across the board. I grabbed the strawberry donuts and they were unreal! Soft, flavorful, and 100% vegan. Major respect to the owners for opening NYC's first Black-owned vegan donut shop in Nolita. This is what excellence and inspiration look like. ANYTHING YOU CAN IMAGINE IS REAL WHERE DREAMS CRUMB TRUE.

    one thing i constantly crave is a good doughnut which is hard to find as a vegan. whenever i visit a big city my goal is to find a vegan doughnut. i was super excited to try cloudy donuts after a quick google search and some tik tok recon. unfortunately they just didn't taste that good. i loved the mini size and plethora of flavors offered. we got one of each flavor which came out to 7 doughnuts and as we were deciding they were super kind and gave us one to try. i think the problem is with the doughnut itself. the dough was just bland and left a weird after taste. the frosting was sweet but they were really lacking flavor.

    Was definitely drawn in by the aesthetics of the shop. Very cute yet simple, offering what seems like vegan donuts and also pound cakes. We were told the lemon blueberry pound cake was one of their popular ones, so naturally we had to try it. It certainly did not disappoint - it was so so moist and just perfect. Wonderful balance of zesty lemon with the tart blueberries and every bite was delightful. We also tried the chai sugar donut which was very light and fluffy and thought this one was solid. However, the lemon blueberry pound cake was a clear winner and I would definitely recommend it!

    This place is great. Definitely one of the best donut spotin the area. Highly recommend.

    With a 3.8 star rating on Google & 3 stars on Yelp, I still wanted to try Cloudy donuts. Once I did, I totally get why their rating is low. Most basic donuts for $6 each - there are too many better dessert options in the city; save your money for those (Dough, Dominique Ansel, Supermoon bake house..list goes on)

    This is the prettiest donut shop that I have ever seen. The decor imparts a luxe and lush atmosphere and vibe. The staff is extremely kind and gracious. They answered my question and even though I made a mistake and ordered and the Brooklyn location they made it right for me and honored the order at this Mott Street - Nolita location. The donuts flavors were thoughtful, delightful and delicious. I got one with coconut and pink pineapple and it was divine!

    Bottom raspberry lemonade was my favorite!
    S H.

    Super cute artisanal donut shop in the heart of NoLiTa. The owner is super friendly and the donuts are super delicious and fluffy and flavorful without being overpowering and too sweet. My favorite flavors were raspberry lemonade (the hints of lemon were PERFECTION) and the blueberry! Would absolutely recommend and would get again. Esp for special occasions like birthdays!

But I had a craving one morning for some sugar and 'Dough' was on my way. I walked in and realized one of their donuts was going to at least spread out for over 2 days for me. The flavors looked so delicious. I decided to go for 'Toasted Coconut'. Amazing nutmeg-y finish and I have to say I love the yeastiness of the donut - did not feel like straight up sugar, but felt like a complex cake/bread - the sourness did come through. The donut has body and texture. My donut world has changed from now on. If I encounter donut people, I will definitely recommend this place. And maybe next year try one of their other amazing flavors. It did cost me $6.80 but I'm telling you these are gigantic - one for 2 people I'd say. The place is simple, cute and clean - standard NYC modern shop. So not much to report here.

Just so you know, I don't have any pictures of it because I ate it immediately! Don't judge me. 5/5 I also had the strawberry shortcake. Very fresh, nice texture, soft throughout. I reminded me of a strawberry crunch cake without the cake taste. I like donuts to taste like donuts despite the name and flavors. 5/5 I swear y'all I wanted the blueberry lemon with the oat crumble, but I had to get outta there before I ate another thing. I promised myself I would get it when I came back! Dough has delicious donuts that are thoughtfully crafted. Check them out. They have SIX locations throughout New York. Til we eat again....

There's usually a line to buy donuts but they have tons of women working behind the counter in their retro smocks, filling orders & slinging pastries. Cash Only! No credit cards or mobile payments accepted. They do have an ATM onsite if you don't have cash on you (not that rare these days - I've been caught lacking here from time to time...). Perhaps the greatest quote ever to sum this place comes from the inimitable Tina Fey who discovered the treats here years ago & had this say @ Peter Pan: "The best doughnut? That's Peter Pan doughnuts in Brooklyn... It's a white-cream-filled powdered doughnut. And I really believe, when I first tried it, if I had a penis, I would put it in this doughnut.
