We aren't huge on sweets but how can you not want to inhale something that looks soooo PRETTY?!? *Pecan Butter Tart Super fluffy Very creamy & Light flavor Pecan Pieces were a nice touch *Tiramisu CheeseCake Instant Espresso flavor Filling light whipped and delicious Wow *Lemon Goldie Raspberry hits you intensely Lemon has a little pucker Super creamy at the same time *Creme Brulee Caramelized topping Cracks like a traditional Creme Brulee Custard inside Light fluffy *Caramel Apple Fritter Super Fluffy Lots of Apple & Cinnamon Hunk of apple in there Caramel is perfection *Maple Bacon Bar Light and fluffy Maple flavor Bacon smoky and delicious All in all the doughnuts were all very flavorful. The dough on all of them was extremely light and airy. If I had to rate them in order, I would say Lemon Goldie, Tiramisu Cheese Cake, Carmel Apple Fritter, Creme Brulee, Pecan Butter Tart, Maple Bacon Bar. They were all delicious, but some exploded in flavor just a little more.

Definitely now is on my list of fave donut spot. They have quite a few different and cool flavours. But too bad they're so far from me. Well i mean it might be good for my waistline haha. We got 6 donuts (that box was HEAVY). Unfortunately i can't remember the names of the ones we bought, but they were all amazing. We had one that had fresh strawberries, a blueberry cheesecake, a sprinkle donut, chocolate donut.... and two other ones. We tried both the regular donut base and also the cake base. I usually don't like cake based donuts because i find them usually way too dense. But at Crave Donuts, the cake base is so fluffy and light. I do wish that my husband chose a crueller based donut to try too.... so i guess i'll have to make a trip there another day.
Came here shortly past 1 pm on Saturday and saw a lineup. We were a bit hesitant as it was a cold day, but knowing that this place run out of donuts quickly, we decided to get in line. Took 20 mins from the time we joined in the line till we finished our purchase. We got: Biscoff (yeast dough) French Toast (yeast dough) Honey vanilla cruller (French dough) Churro cruller (French dough) Nutella Churro cruller (French dough) Taxido (cake dough) We concluded that this place is great for French dough and cake dough. We are not a big fan of their yeast dough items which were chewy/dense than fluffy/light. French dough items are eggy like "pate a choux" with a lot of air pockets. The light and crispy texture is addictive! Taxido was moist and crumbly, with a generous sugar coating. Guilty pleasure!
Really good donuts in Whitby. Came early on a 'bad weather' day and was able to snag a good selection of donuts based on advice from friends who tell me they sell out quickly on weekends. It's a small shop so I can see why the lines can build up. If you look at their instagram page you'll see when they sell out or updates to their donut flavours. I honestly can't even remember all the flavours we bought but if you have a sweet tooth like me every donut looked and tasted amazing. We shared with friends and family so we could try more flavours lol. I will definitely mark this as a Whitby -need to go type of spot....unless you're not a fan of donuts.
I never thought I would set alarms on my phone to place an online order for doughnuts, but it happened. In my experience you have to be on the website right at 9am if you want a box. The actual pickup process is very quick which I appreciated. As someone with gluten allergies, I've never actually eaten one of their doughnuts and it's disappointing they don't offer any gluten free options. However, whenever I show up at someone's house with a box of these doughnuts everyone is always impressed. They all look beautiful and far more exciting than any other donuts I've ever seen. They come up with some really cool flavours and my family really enjoys them. However, usually people are only really interested in four or five of the options. The last box I got had a maple bacon donut that no one wanted to try. Usually when I'm picking between the two boxes I know there's at least one donut in each that won't be popular, so that's a little frustrating. However, I'll definitely be back to pick up donuts for more special occasions because not many other desserts bring the same wow factor for $20.
These donuts are on another level. I got a box of their assorted dozen which contained the following flavours: peach raspberry fritter, creme brûlée, cannoli, churro cruller, honey vanilla cruller, fudge brownie, twix, confetti cake, mango cocolime, coffee cookie butter, and carrot cake fritter. My mistake was thinking 2 people could take on this box before it getting stale... First of all the donuts are HUGE... I almost wish they were smaller so I can try more flavours in one sitting, but they're definitely worth it because they're so filling. Each flavour was so well executed... it not only looked the part but most of them were pretty on point with the flavour. Beware, as some of them are super sweet. Luckily I have a high tolerance for sweetness. It's also really nice that they switch up their flavours every month and have weekly flavours. I pre-ordered my box the day before and took no chances.. I went to their site right at 9AM and quickly checked my box out for Saturday morning pickup. When I got there it was a quick in and out. Their store space is super tiny... only standing space for 1 person at a time. It would be a lotttt easier if they were able to accommodate pre-orders while also serving the walk-in line. Overall, $40 for a dozen donuts is pretty steep but I'm all for supporting local businesses and the donuts are pretty bomb.
Went here on a nice weekday afternoon for the first time. The place itself is small, with room for really only two people inside. We a nice mixture of donuts, ranging from apple pie to salted caramel macchiato, to vanilla sprinkle. The donuts were way bigger than I thought they'd be. The sweet potato one we got barely fit in with the rest of the donuts. The icing wasn't too sweet and the layer was thin enough that it didn't overpower the dough in any way. There wasn't an excess amount of oil per bite, and each donut tasted just as they were named. I can't wait to go back to try the other seasonal flavors!
Probably the best donuts I've ever had. Usually donuts are one note - sweet. These donuts have depth. They are well made - not doughy, not mushy, not dense. Light perfection! I actually don't feel too sick after eating one which is more than I can say for other donuts. They really do taste like what they say. Their crullers are perfection - crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The passionfruit cacao was tart and complex. And the apple pie was amazing! Great filling. They work out to around $4 per donut which I think is a decent price for how much work goes into them. I'm definitely going back.
We went to Crave Donuts last month and got a half dozen donuts Dear lord..... Were they ever good!!! I'm happy that Durham has a gourmet/specialty donut shop Beats going to Toronto to get some The stuffed donuts are quite the treat The Cookie Monster donut was super yummy We had the Skor Cheesecake one and oh my..... The selection was super awesome Had to lineup outside because of Covid rules so make sure you don't go on a cold day or a rainy one Only thing I would say is the Churro Cruller For an idea drizzle some caramel on top of it and this will make it mucho delicioso
These donuts are wonderful. I've been to crave so many times and I would HIGHLY recommend the crullers and the fritters. LOVE THEM. They always have friendly staff and it's just a great experience.
Really great donuts in Whitby! I was nearby the 2nd Oshawa location (Wentworth) and popped by. I definitely think it's less busy at the Oshawa location but both spots donuts are excellent. Honestly I love crullers and this place makes an awesome crueller. We went during the summer months so I was able to try their seasonal special creamsicle but their classic is the best one. They also have really great service. I was running errands and it was hot that day so they said I can leave my donuts at the shop so they don't go bad. I was able to pick them up before closing without missing out on the selections earlier in the day. Would suggest going early to get the best options :)
YUM! I have finally tried this place and the hype is real! A half dozen donuts may seem pricey at $20 but when you see them, you'll understand. They are ginormous!!! They are fresh, and there are lots of flavours to accommodate many palettes. The staff are also really friendly. Personally, my favourites were the crueller (crispy but also light and fluffy), the French toast, and the tiramisu. You'll drive up to this place and the line will more than likely extend to the mid/end of the building, but if you've got time, I would wait! The line did move fairly quickly. I believe you can also put in a pre-order but I think you still need to wait in line to pick it up.
These donuts are not for daily consumption but for a special treat, well in fact donuts in general shouldn't be consumed frequently. Crave makes massive, tasty and fresh donuts that should be shared. 1/2 dozen donuts we cut up and share so we can taste all the amazing flavours. It's great that they have a second location and the renovations at the Whitby location provides so much more room for customers. If you want a treat or a donut go to Crave because they make an amazing treat. read more

July 20, 2024 - After having lunch, my friend mentioned crave doughnuts. It was only a few mins from Butchies. But when we got there it was sold out. Can you believe sold out at 2:30pm! Wow!! So we took The chance and went to the one in Whitby. They only had 3 flavours left. I ordered Mango Coconut Lime + Honey Vanilla Cruller. The doughnuts are big, soft and delicious, I enjoyed it with some milk. Definitely need to try other flavours. Next time I'm in the area I'll definitely order something read more

I've been eyeing for this donuts for months now and today finally I treated myself with the Crave Option 1: Caramel Apple Fritter French Toast Honey Vanilla Cruller Pumpkin Cheesecake Reese Peanut Butter Cup Vanilla Sprinkler Each of this flavour is really delicious! And the donuts are so soft it really blew my mind The unique thing in this box is the Cruller. OMG the second I bite into it, reminds me of Churros! I mean the crispy, airy texture is worth the calories Highly recommended if you haven't try it! Follow @astravel_eats for more read more

Customer Service: We ordered online which was a smooth process. BUT donuts sold out quick so be prepared. I liked how pre-orders are done the day before, which means donuts are made fresh for pickup Food: Delicious and creative flavors. The dough was light and tasty. It's nice that they had vegan options as well read more

Hello Porruthai,…
I got to Crave around 9:30am on a Sunday and they open at 10. There were already about 15 people in line. I waited, and once they opened the doors the line moved very fast. Walk in, order your donuts, get out. There's a limit of a dozen, which is smart so everyone get some. I ordered an assorted dozen (see picture) and I really enjoyed them. They're definitely, without question, the best donuts in Whitby. Not the best donuts I've ever had, by far, but very enjoyable. More bready from the brioche dough, and not greasy at all. Give it a shot. read more

They would have got five stars if it wasn't for the price. $40 for 12 donuts is arrogant, and quite simply extortion. I had about eight different flavours. The most highly recommended would be the glazed Cruller and the Reese's peanut butter. The glazed cruller was airy and buttermilk-flavorful. For the reeses peanut butter one, it was pumped full of the perfect peanut butter mousse. Not too sweet, not too salty, not too thick, not too thin. Just perfect. The donuts are huge. 1.5 the size of a Tim Horton's donut. You have to open your mouth pretty wide to even take your bites. As for the place itself, I went on a cold March Wednesday at 1030am. There was a line up for about 13 people outside but it moved quite quickly. I'd say I only waited about 12 mins. It's a walk-in shop that can hold maybe only about four to five people which is why there is always a lineup. Barely anyone can hold inside! They have a bar-like shelf-table with a few stools. Absolutely pointless because no one is going to have a chance to sit here with the tight space and lines. Also, their opening times are shit. I recommend checking out this place for a few of their select Donuts as long as you can go at a time when there will be few people in the line (weekdays shortly after opening). PS. They take credit card and debit read more

Hello Jahaira,…

Tried the new location in Oshawa after bookmarking it for weeks. It was very hyped in our house for a while so expectations were high. It didn't quite make the mark sadly. The doughnuts were good but kinda hard to enjoy the flavors because they are extremely sweet. The coconut mango one was my favorite I was able to get some of the coconut mango taste. PB&J tasted nothing like peanut butter so that was disappointing. Lemon custard was bright and sour so my wife liked it. Overall it's probably closer to a 4 stars but not quite there in our books. Biggest bummer I ordered pistachios which I typically love but the cashier gave me some other coconut. I think they need to pick the doughnuts in front of the customer instead of the back shelves that way you can be sure they're picking what you want. We'll probably check it out some other time with different selections to make a final verdict. Good luck! read more

These dounts are worth the hype! No donut I've had compares to the ones at Crave. They especially perfected the lemon meringue. They have a great contactless system right now- I drove up and got the box brought out to my car. There were about 5 cars in front of me, all of which moved quick. They seem very organized, and everyone was friendly. Previous reviews have mentioned that it is difficult to get your order in due to them selling out very quick- which is true. I was ready at 8:59 (hitting the refresh button exactly at 9) and had no issues getting my order in at my preferred time. It's something to keep in mind if ordering for a gift/celebration, however if you're aware and are able to be ready to order right at 9 I don't see there being much of an issue. Overall you are getting the quality. They are selling out for a reason- they are that good. They are a great small business and I look forward to trying out more of their flavour creations! read more

Must have if you are in the Whitby area. The absolute best crueller i have ever had. They do rotating flavours and they do sell out. My favourite crueller is the regular one they have every week, but they do offer weekly crueller flavours. The donuts are big and the crueller is crispy on the outside with a nice chew, but so fluffy and moist on the inside. Half a dozen will set you back about $20. read more

Better show up early to grab these, there was a line at opening even in the rain and I can completely see why! They are delicious and indulgent, nothing beats a fresh donut and the flavours are unreal from Crave! Personal favs from the dozen we tried were Churro Crueller, Nanaimo bar, blueberry fritter, and S'mores! read more
Stopped in at Crave Doughnuts on a weekend drive, and I'm so glad we did! The doughnuts were all super fresh and delicious, with a generous amount of filling/toppings. My favourites were the banana chip fritter (bottom left) and the pecan pie doughnut (top right). read more

Delicious and beautiful donuts! I especially loved Turtles Cheesecake and French Toast. Online ordering for contactless curb side pickup during COVID was quick and easy. We got them for my dad's birthday and cut them up so everyone could taste each flavour. We loved them all! read more

Amazing every time but they sell out quickly. Place your order early for the next day. Their vegan donuts aren't as good but would still recommend, it's great that they even have that option! read more
Top notch customer service. I was so tempted by their Easter doughnuts on their Insta, I drove 1 hour to get one. Unfortunately for their special doughnuts you can't pre-order. Their regular menu are available for pre-order and is totally hassle free. When I got there the line was wrapped around the building. But IMO, it is absolutely worth the wait for some of the most delicious doughnuts around. The line went fairly quickly. From the nice guy in front of the store who kept us updated on the doughnut situation and the reminders to be respectful of the other businesses and other customers, to the nice ladies inside, my experience was very positive. When it was my turn, the lady in front of me had taken the last two of the one I drove down to get. The kind ladies inside some how found one more. I highly recommend checking their website once in a while since their menu changes. My favorite is lemon meringue and any of their crullers. Their doughnuts are made from fresh ingredients and never frozen like some other places. If it were possible, I would be giving them 6 stars. I do want to point out, they are a sweeter doughnut so if you don't like super sweet, I would recommend the fruity ones they some times have. read more
