Best donuts. Long ago used to walk down there from high school (long gone) and get "day old" really cheap but still the best.

We heard this place had a great Kringle so we stopped in for that and to pick up some bread. The bread selection was OK so we passed on that but we did pick up an apple Kringle. It was late on a Saturday morning so there was not much of a selection. Not sure its as good as an O&H Kringle but not bad... We also picked up a donut that was glazed with maple and covered in whole peanuts - I never seen a donut with that many peanuts. It was very good. Nice to see small local bakeries still surviving - a real asset in Stoughton. read more

Cute little place, just a few small tables, but lots of goodies that looked really delicious. The girl behind the counter was very nice and knowledgeable about what was in her case. I got a blueberry danish, which was soft and flaky and....amazing. The peanut crusted piece of cake - the very tender cake was surrounded by buttercream before they rolled it in the peanuts. I'm sure there's an official name for it, which I do not know, but it was delicious, also. They also had coffee available if you are into that. Parking was right in front of the store. read more

I was roaming around in the area and randomly went into this store. It was an interesting Norwegian bakery. Everything I had was nice. I went for a Charlie Brown, which was a very chocolatey cake. I also went for a coconut macaron. Also a donut coated with peanut crumbs.Krumkaka looked very similar to an ice cream cone. read more

Softest fresh sliced loaf of bread I have EVER purchased in my life. Throw in two cases filled with assorted donuts and pastries. An light croissant texture apricot danish and strawberry cream cheese pastry. Throw in the moist chocolate cake with buttercream dollops and then the dessert is fudge dipped on top. Attention to flavor and presentation. Excellent local bakery in historic downtown. read more

Finally found a long john that is amazing and better than the childhood bakery I remember in my dreams!!! I am planning on making the 400 mile round trip to Stoughton just for these long Johns and doughnuts from Fosdal Bakery. Best sweet rolls and cakes you will ever taste. The employee behind the counter was also very nice and helpful! read more

I have been getting fosdals cakes for my birthday every year for about 20 years, and I BEG the owners to never change the recipe. No one does it like here, the textures and freshness and balance in flavors- it's consistently perfection. Do yourself a favor and get a marble cake with chocolate frosting and floral designs, its texturally and flavorally fresh and balanced, it's life changing read more

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways! No jokes, these are the BEST doughnuts you will ever had. And that is a very bold statement coming from someone who is as well travelled as I am. So take the Pepsi challenge for yourself. As for me my mind is made up! This lactation is in a small store front on Stoughton's historic Main Street. The service is always top notch. They offer great coffee, as well as other pastries and such. But I'm telling you, the doughnuts! Also family owned and operated. read more

What an adorable, delicious little bakery! I went here with my husband and father and we got a pecan roll, cinnamon twist, chocolate covered bavarian cream donut and chocolate chip kringel. Just walking by the bakery you get a sweet smell of baked goods and sweetness. My favorite was a chocolate chip kringel. It was crispy on the outside with a creamy, chocolate chip center. It was delicious and I would absolutely recommend them. The employees provided fast and friendly service. Rating from an F to A+++ I give it an A+++! read more

It's nice to have a family owned bakery in a small city, but I've been here three times over the course of a couple years and I never seem to get the warm fuzzies. I always feel like I'm inconveniencing the staff. To be fair, the people working the counter are on the younger side, so they could use some teaching in proper customer etiquette. I've also learned the earlier in the day you come, the better the selection will be. I wasn't too impressed with the donuts, but the chocolate chunk scone is pretty delicious. I've also tried their breads and they're okay. I will still continue to come here I hopes the service aspect improves. read more

Love this cute little shop in downtown Stoughton. Really inexpensive and tasty donuts. Super friendly staff and warm environment. Not my favorite style of apple fritter, but that is ok, the bites or donut I got from my kids were great. Adorable Christmas cookies around the holidays. Small town donut shops are really a treat and this is a great one to visit. read more

Had their donuts all my life, always so fresh and great service always so nice. And as someone that lives close by it's always nice to smell donuts first thing in the morning read more

Went here on a Saturday morning to pick up some donuts before walking around downtown. The original plan was only to get a donut and some coffee, but then we saw them all, so we had to get 6. Also, we had the impulse buy of chocolate and blueberry day old scones. The donuts were light and fluffy, yet maintained a good body so you could still chew them. My favorite is always the cinnamon swirl ones with crushed peanuts on top and theirs did not disappoint. Probably one of the best ones I've had. My friend always loves a custard filled one and he was happy with this one. They do have a thick frosting on some of the donuts, so if you're not into that, I would choose a different variety. The day old scones also ended up being a pleasant surprise as we tried them the next day, so 2 days old, and they were still nice and moist. There were giant chocolate chunks in the one. The coffee was decent. The autumn blend one was a little to cool, and the regular was a little too hot, so we mixed them together and the temperature was perfect. Everything was pretty reasonably priced and quite tasty. We will be back! read more

Our family has been a big fan of Fosdal Bakery. Consistently great donuts are served at this location. We have a tradition that on Christmas morning we all eat our favorite donuts from Fosdals. The double chocolate with cream filling is the absolute best. Over the years we have purchased their buns, rolls, cookies, and other treats they make. The quality is great and the service is really quick even when the place is packed full of people. You just can't go wrong here. read more

Fosdal's is just down the street from us, which is very dangerous when you are hungry on the way to or from work! Their prices are SO reasonable that I love swinging by and picking up a dozen donuts for work! Only $10! They have so many different flavors that are just mouth watering to even WRITE about! You definitely need to stop by while in town! They have so much more than just donuts. read more

The best gal danged bakery in Dane County....or southern WI for that matter! The kringle would win awards if there was awards for that type of thing. read more

Best donuts in town, hands down. They also make a really delicious Kringle, and I'm willing to bet all of their pastries are just as good. read more

Outstanding customer service. Best donuts, Kringle and rolls !! Also had many cakes with a special picture of logo made, with great responses.. read more

Delicious baked treats for any occasion! Flowers on a recent cake were almost too pretty to eat, plus the carrot cake was rich, moist and flavorful. Love stopping with the kids for a donut or cookie treat. Since they are located on Stoughton's Main Street they also have Norwegian specialties. Easy place to pop in for a quick lunch, they have hearty and hot soups that go great with a fresh roll or slice of bread. read more

Friendly, deli ious Kringle, good enough coffee, and overall good vibes ! Survived the Covid because they have a loyal following due to their heartfelt and generous donations over the years. Their Chocolate Bismarck's didn't hurt their sales either. David D. read more

Hands down the best doughnuts in Wisconsin! Usually a Sunday morning breakfast staple.

If you visit Stoughton during daylight hours and you don't stop by Fosdal's for a treat, I'd say that you haven't really been to Stoughton. A favorite place in the morning for many, many middle-schoolers and commuters, it is definitely worth your while to step inside and enjoy the awesome smells and bakery offerings. I just love the place - it is like stepping back in time. Only a few tables, good coffee, great selection of delicious pastries, and friendly counter service. My favorite is to get a coffee and a cream cheese danish and, if it happens to be available, to take the table in the little nook to the left of the door (as viewed from inside) to do a bit of people watching while enjoying the ambiance of the place and the awesome treats they make here. Fosdal's is one of the state's crown jewels, and I definitely recommend making a stop here! read more

Great bakery located in downtown Stoughton. My co-workers brought these fresh donuts to work and they were to die for. Decided to stop by the bakery with the family today. I knew this place was good just by the amount of cars that pulled up right at 7am on a Sunday. Good assortment of the usual long johns, glazed, sugar, cream filled, and sprinkle donuts. There was a mini fridge for drinks. Cookies, breads, and other delectable treats for sale. You could hardly see what was in the case for the other treats since the humidity built up on the window. I paid $7 and some change for a half dozen, chocolate milk, and a rainbow decorated cookie. The donuts are practically on steroids. You really do get what you pay for! The frosting is sweet so if your looking for a diabetes type donut then this is the place to go. Nice friendly staff. Would definitely stop by again. read more

Love this quaint family bakery! Fresh donuts, breads, and rosettes. Kind service and a must stop for a donut craving.

Donuts are a little unusual but I have had a few and all are delicious. I highly recommend the peanut persian.

My wife is a donut aficionado and was ecstatic at the diversity and quality of donuts. I have seen her so happy eating a donut. Well worth the 300 mile trip. read more

This is the best bakery I've ever been to the best chocolate donuts the best cinnamon Persians the best everything I've ever had there was the best great sandwiches not a coffee drinker but all my coffee drinkers in Stoughton say that's the best .people come back to Stoughton and always have to stop at Fosdals at least once and tell others in their new homes read more

Delicious. So many options. But go early if you want the baked cinnamon roll over the fried, they always sell out of those. So many other goodies too, cookies, brownies, etc. read more

It's a long drive to Stoughton from Waunakee and quite honestly, I was dreading making the trip through snowy conditions for my daughter's early morning Saturday basketball game. Then I paid a visit to Fosdal Bakery and suddenly the trip didn't seem so bad. The Fosdal doughnuts have some substance to them without feeling heavy or greasy. Their doughnuts are less expensive and better in overall quality than their counterparts at Greenbush Bakery in Madison. While I didn't pick up any bread, I tried several samples and was impressed with the taste and texture. The women working the counter that Saturday morning were wonderful. Even though it was my visit, they treated me like a regular. The cozy surroundings seem to be a popular gathering spot for the Stoughtonites. If I lived closer to Stoughton, I no doubt would be joining them. read more

This is a fantastic local bakery with fresh doughnuts the kids love and their coffee is always good too!

I'm a huge fan of this bakery. I was raised in Stoughton, so I've been coming here for as long as I can remember. The library on the corner gives children a card that entitles one to a free cookie on reading hour days, so I would always come here. The donuts are light, not over done and delicious. Everything is cheap and wonderful, the cookies are especially worth your money. I'd recommend the molasses, sugar and Charlie Brown. (chocolate with raisins with chocolate frosting) There's also homemade bread and soup. If you stay, you'll undoubtedly be witness to casual exchanges between neighbors and the gathering of older men who sit in the window. It's a great way to experience the spirit of Stoughton and if you're lucky, you'll hear a bit of Norwegian! I strongly recommend this bakery if you have the chance to pass through town. If you have a bit longer, I'd go down to the river and eat your donuts there. (Take main to Division and turn right, follow until you hit the river. Total distance is about 2.5 blocks) read more

Best donuts around! Their other bakery items are awesome too and I've ordered 2 cakes from Fosdal for my son's baptism and his birthday and they were delicious! read more

Super cute local bakery with very friendly (in a genuine way, not an annoying fake friendliness) staff. They have good coffee and a pretty good selection of donuts, muffins, cookies, and other baked goods. I'm giving four stars instead of five only because I'm pretty spoiled with amazing donuts in LA and the donuts here are not the best I've ever had (the best I've ever had is Sidecar in Santa Monica). My favorite donuts at Fosdal are the plain fricake and the apple cider donut (seasonal). So good! read more

Really good donuts for cheap! This is a classic small town bakery. I eat my fair share of gourmet donuts, usually costing 2-4x the cost of a donut here. They don't exactly have the most unique options here, but the standard raised options are fluffy, moist, and delectable. They do offer coffee but it's pretty basic with no barista service or hand made options. I much prefer a donut shop with a nice espresso machine to pair with my sugar. Overall great option in Stoughton and clearly above grocery store options! read more
