Oh ! I didn't finish this review. It was in a draft folder ! I am glad I happened to find it. This place is NOT your typical donut shop. Donuts are usually a sweet I skip , but my friends on the island said I have to try them and I am so glad I did. I got a glazed and a king cake donut. ! What?!?!? I also got another donut and a bun that was not sweet. I have been wanting more of this donuts since I finished them. They are a very different texture and I love it. Not greasy at all! They have other pastries too, but I came after most of them were gone. There are no machines making anything here....and you can taste the difference. They have a small dine in area so most people come in for takeout. The staff was patient with a first timer and helped me choose the best that was still available. The secret here is to watch the hours they are open and when they are, come early for the best selection. Located in a small complex so parking may be a problem, but I will walk miles to get to this place... that is after driving 7 hours to get to the island! Every time I see a donut place I crave these donuts. I have not had any other donut since because there is just no comparison. read more

Wow this place is fantastic!! Donuts are one of my favorite foods in all the world. When traveling, I love looking for the top rated donuts thru Yelp! At Dulce Dough Bakery, every donut I tried was incredible. The cinnamon brioche donut and the maple brioche donuts were our favorites. My husband had the jalapeño, bacon, cheddar cathead biscuit with the addition of eggs, bacon & cheese. He wants to go back tomorrow for another one!! Coffee is served in jadeite mugs. They also have fresh squeezed orange juice. When my friend was commenting on the homemade juice, the guy making it brought us a small glass of juice to sample! We had some fancy, high end meals while visiting Sea Island. This small donut shop has been the highlight of our visit! read more

What you know to be a donut is rat puke compared to Dulce Dough! Clean out your deprived depraved mouth and prepare for the best thing you will eat all year! Lemon cream was the favorite for us; it's better than any lemon curd or custard I've ever had. Lightly acidic, exactly the right amount of lemon, felt frothy in taste but resided in pudding cream. I can't explain the Willy Wonka-level magic there but it was divine! The pastry dough was perfectly rendered to be light, tender but not chewy, sugared tastefully (not saccharine), and absolutely zero flavor of lard, grease, or artificial anything, and I couldn't even tell it was fried as donuts are. It was so pristine it didn't offend my system in any way as every other donut I've ever had always does. The pear donut had actual pear flavor baked into the dough that stood out over any other taste. Amazing! Again, no lard nor glazey saccharine tastes, just pear and pastry! I did brush off the excess brown sugar topping which was too much, but wow, this was incredible! The chocolate I thought I was ordering turned out to be chocolate ganache glaze rather than a chocolate pastry. Similar to their "Homer" (Simpson) donut with pink ganache, this chocolate was far from the likes of Kwik-E-Mart and more a fit for fine dining desserts! Beautifully executed, it would've been ironic on a donut had the pastry not been yet again a home run out of the ballpark! Boston Cream--screw eclairs--even the best Euro pastries I've had over there can't beat it! Again, that perfect light pastry, real-azz cocoa chocolate ganache glaze, and pudding cream. We have some impressive gourmet donuts near us in Phila area, but man, Dulce Dough beats them with their fine points! DD does SSI a culinary blessing and we all should be grateful! Tip: order online around 4pm the evening before. They will and do sell out of EVERYTHING! I asked and they said they'd gone through 1000 donuts in a morning! One one hand, holy sh!t, on the other hand, I'm not surprised! read more

Looked up donuts in the area and this place had the best reviews. Google told me it's best to order the day before because they run out fast. I ordered the vanilla glazed donut, strawberry filled donut, vanilla cinnamon roll, and a cold brew. All the donuts were so soft, sweet, and delicious! The cold brew was watered down and not that great. I highly suggest placing an order the day before you want the donuts. read more

Decided to try this place on a trip to St. Simon's because it has quite the reputation. The line was out the door when we arrived but the line moved fairly quickly. We ordered basically one of everything and breakfast sandwiches. The donuts were good, not great, but good. The breakfast sandwiches were delicious but needed some seasoning or a sauce. Overall cute shop and would come back! read more

When we heard there was a doughnut shop on the island we knew instantly we had to stop by and try it out! Their French style baked goods are delicious with a flaky dough and the perfect amount of sweetness they make an excellent breakfast treat! The shop is hopping but well worth the wait. The staff were very friendly and the case was filled with a myriad of sweet confections! They also make quiches fresh to order which we will have to try out on our next visit. This time we tried the maple, chocolate with sprinkles and the Baba Au Rhum. I was, of course, partial to the maple (my fav!) very tasty. But, I can't let this review go on without mentioning their packaging! So very classic and old fashioned doughnut vibes I'm in love with their boxing! lol! This is 100% a must stop when visiting SSI definitely treat yourself!!! read more

I had to pre-order because the line usually stretches around the building, even though the donuts aren't really that good. when I got in, it was a crowded environment and the chefs were yelling for ingredients. once I picked up my order, I tasted one of the donuts and it tasted more like a kids birthday cake. The service member who greeted me was very cheery and she looked like she's the kind of one who would take on a day with courage and brightness. i'd recommend it to a friend who really likes birthday cake. The one good thing out of my trip was that I got a good tasting biscuit and and a T-shirt read more

Adorable donut shop! A tight squeeze when it's busy, but didn't stop us from waiting patiently for these puppies! Ok, my favorite thing I ordered? - their black coffee! Now that isn't a dig against them. Quite the opposite! It was such a lovely surprise to have a fantastic cup of joe with a delicious donut. The brioche donuts, although great, we all agreed they each tasted the same- just with different toppings. Not my favorite chocolate topping as I prefer a hardened chocolate on top of my donut- and this was syrup. The only "different" one we got was the cinnamon sugar brioche. Like a soft churro! Didn't get any filled ones, but I imagine they're good! Best thing my husband ordered and said he'd go back for.. the cathead biscuit. Crispy outside and soft on the inside. Buttery, cheesy spicy flavor- yum! read more

The interior was super cute! Tea sets and light blue coloring and couches. Very aesthetically pleasing. The donuts were light and airy -- like biting into the most delectable cloud. They were sweet but not SO sweet that you couldn't come back for seconds and thirds (fourths if you're me). I highly recommend! (: read more

My son recommended this place, he was right, it is excellent. The staff is friendly, the donuts and biscuits are heavenly. It's the kind of place you go to get your coffee, or tea, and a donut, bun or biscuit and read the newspaper. Try the Catshead biscuits, they have a great variation on the basic Southern staple, but get there early they go fast. The establishment is only open from 7:00 AM to 2:00 PM Wednesday thru Sunday. If you are in the Brunswick Georgia area it's worth the drive to St. Simon's Island. read more

Dulce dough is a must! We visited on our second day of vacation and returned 3 more times. The staff is super kind... and the doughnuts and breads are amazing!

Very disappointed. Went on a Wed and yes it was spring break. By 9:15AM they were out of all donuts with a long line they sent away. I got that last sticky bun and my wife wanted a donut but there were none. Thought they would bring out more but announced they were done. The guy in front of us wanted a bisket but they were out of jam. My coffee was barely warm at best. Very expensive. My sticky bun was good and should be for the price. Not recommended by me. read more

Baba Au Rhum is AMAZING! Worth the trip for sure. Family loved everything we got. Pricey but worth it for a treat while on vacation. read more

Waiting for over 45 minutes for simple donuts should be a crime - line out the door in . No parking either. Be warned.

Can we have a minute for the bacon, jalapeño, cheddar biscuits? I mean, they're perfect. If I was only allowed one thing to eat for the rest of my life, these may be at the top. The vanilla donut was also delicious. Ambiance and service were wonderful. We carried out and brought it back to our rental, but if I lived on the island full-time, I'd have a hard time staying away from Dulce Dough! read more

Hands down the best donut I've ever had. The maple bacon is a must try! Will definitely be returning soon! read more

We were visiting Sea Island, GA, and stayed overnight and then before we left in the morning, we stopped by Dulce Dough to pick up some donuts. This is my second visit there I went there a year ago about this time. I was really hoping they had the Earl Grey Tea filled doughnut again, but alas they did not. But flavors are seasonal. I picked three and then my wife copied me. It's a bit pricey ($26 for 6 doughnuts). However they are much better than the chain donut shops. I believe Guy Fieri even visited them once. I wish a couple of the donuts (buttermilk pie) had more filling. But the other two flavors (strawberry Berliner and the Boston Cream) had a decent amount. Over all, very good doughnuts. Pricey, but made from scratch. read more

I went to the Woodside for dinner and the roll had me hooked. They told us the baker has a spot we have to try. And boy were they right!!! Omg I wanted to eat everything in here. I can't wait for my trip back I'll be having breakfast here everyday read more

Came in on 4th of July had abbreviated hours but still so nice and very helpful. The donuts are mostly brioche and omg. Like so soft and delish. We had the Boston créeme and the vanilla brioche. The Boston had just been dipped in chocolate and the creme was so yummy and not just a regular pudding. The vanilla brioche had a touch a sweetness but was so pillowy fresh. I will def go back and have a breakfast Sammy. read more

Cute and quaint little bakery not far from the SSI airport. My sister heard of this place from a local so we knew it had to be good. We got there before 9 and thankfully beat the rush (there was a line out the door after we got there. They a small patio area to eat, couches, chairs, tables and a bar area. It's mostly donuts but they have biscuits too. I ordered a cat head biscuit, sugar brioche and coffee. The cat head biscuit has cheddar, jalapeños and bacon in it. It was good but needed to be warmed up. The sugar brioche was dough-licious! Very thiiiiick, easy to pull apart and just the right amount of sugar. I would certainly recommend the sugar brioche donuts and any variation of them there. The coffee was meh. I did just the drip coffee but just wasn't my thing. Would certainly recommend this place for your donut fix! read more

This is probably the best donut I've ever had. The line was equal parts long and slow but I'd do it all over again because the food was so good. We got the vanilla, maple and strawberry donuts. Maple isn't usually my thing but it was our unanimous favorite. We also got the breakfast sandwiches on both brioche and biscuit, both forms phenomenal. A must stop when in SSI. read more

Sunday 9am. Got there and the line was curled around inside the place leading to the counter. Probably about 25-40 people ahead of us. We had nowhere to be. Once we got in the door, I went to the bathroom, and by the time I was finished, my wife was five spaces from where she was when I left. It took a really long time, maybe 45-50 minutes to get up to get the donuts, quiche, and the cathead breakfast sandwich. During that wait we saw a number of people open the door, see the line, and walk out to go somewhere else. After all, there are other places to eat on the island. Many more filed into the end of the line. We figured it had to be special to engender this kind of response. And was it ever! The quiche was the best we have ever had. Never did I think I would find a topper for our local Charleston favorite, but it surpassed. The Cathead biscuit was so stuffed with meat we waddled out. We ate on the donuts for the next three days. Every one a winner! Dulce Dough is worth the wait, worth the drive, and worth the price. Go now! read more

I was driving from South Carolina further south and recently saw this place on DDD (food network). I'm so happy I decided to order ahead online because I arrived at 11:10am and they were already sold out but still selling drinks. I got the vanilla glazed and Berliner strawberry. The vanilla glazed was my favorite of the two but they were both good and not too sweet. If I had to say a con it was just too much filling in the Berliner for my liking but with a black coffee I'd have that glazed all day everyday and twice on Sundays lol. I wish I lived in Georgia! I will be back. read more

E X P E R I E N C E great little Cafe area. very retro decor. great to chat and hang out. definitely an older building we came in on a Sunday 1230pm to order take out. we were not greeted by any servers. we walked up to the to go counter and waited for someone to come help us. maple bacon brioche cream cheese cinnamon roll breading was airy but it was dry; the flavor was decent. nothing to write home about. there's potential but compared to other bakeries, I'd say this is a solid 2/5. definitely not the best we've ever had PS they have a la Maazocco coffee machine! great for the coffee connoisseurs! the two ladies in the back, prepping the dough and baking the pastries seemed so kind. they were chatting with each other happily. when we walked around and peaking into their work space, they were so quick to mouth hi while continuing to work.

This place is amazing. The interior is super cute. They have a lot of tables inside and a counter. They have a few tables outside on the porch. The donuts and biscuits are so delicious. The vanilla brioche donut that I ordered literally melted in my mouth. I also ordered a latte which was fine. My daughter ordered a biscuit with sausage and cheese. I plan to get the donut and the biscuit next time! So good! You have to order at the counter and the line is always long primarily because of them making coffees. You can order ahead which I recommend but while you are waiting it is fun to look in the window and watch them baking all those delicious treats! read more
