If you're a donut lover, Glazed and Confused is worth the stop. We had a great experience here. My fiancé and son were even gifted two donuts by the kind woman behind the counter after my son excitedly shared he'd been helping clean up downtown for Earth Day. Such a thoughtful gesture!!! They loved the cinnamon bun and cereal killer donuts. The shop was clean and very busy, but service was quick and efficient. There are a few seats if you want to eat there, although it's more of a grab and go spot. Parking is street parking and can be tricky at times. They do offer a few gluten-free options, but nothing dairy-free. Overall, great donuts and genuinely kind service--we'd definitely return! read more

It was a beautiful day downtown and I decided I needed a donut. The donuts range in price from $1.25 - $3.00. I got a buckeye which was $3, but it was so rich and satisfying. My opinion was it was worth it. Deep rich chocolate flavored cake donut, peanut glaze, lots of chopped peanuts, peanut buttercream and chocolate drizzle. It was outstanding. No line when I was there around 11:30am, quick and polite service. I'll definitely be back to try more flavors. read more

What a cute donut shop in downtown Syracuse! I had the "Fill it" Friday special - pumpkin cream cheese roll? This yeast donut filled with custard, topped with streusel and a pumpkin cream cheese swirl was delicious! The donut itself was soft with a great chew, the custard was silky smooth and everything I could ever want in a custard, and the pumpkin swirl actually tasted like pumpkin. Great way to welcome Fall and celebrate the end of the week! read more

I've had these donuts several times over the years, they are truly always the best tasting donuts. I'm not big on sweets/bakeries but these are always a tasty treat and worth it... definitely super sweet but in the best possible way and obviously you'd expect that from a gourmet donut. The cinnamon roll one is my absolute favorite! read more

Glazed & Confused - Donuts Near Me - Syracuse, New York

I hardly know where to begin with this place. We've all wandered into shops just before closing, only to be met with tired eyes and fading service. But on our first week in Syracuse, we discovered Glazed and Confused just twenty minutes before they shut their doors and you would never have known it. The two people behind the counter welcomed us with a warmth and kindness that felt genuine, not obligatory. As an Ohio State graduate, my eyes went straight to their Buckeye donuts, an instant must-buy. I walked out with two, and every bite confirmed I'd made the right choice. Rich, indulgent, perfectly balanced... these were donuts that know exactly what they're doing. But the pastries were only half the magic. I wasn't sure if I was speaking with the owner, but I bravely mentioned that I'm an aspiring baker myself. Instead of brushing it off, he lit up offering thoughtful advice, encouragement, and even an open invitation to reach out if I ever needed help. That moment stopped me in my tracks. This, right here, is community. This is what it looks like when a business is built on passion, generosity, and heart. I'll only be in Syracuse for a year, but Glazed and Confused has already earned a permanent place in my routine... and my heart. The perfect start to the weekend, and the kind of place that reminds you why local bakeries matter. read more

Glazed & Confused - Dozen Donuts! One in each flavor! - Donuts Near Me - Syracuse, New York

Stopped in early on a Saturday morning for a sweet fix. Service was very friendly, we were the only ones in the shop at the time and were in and out quite quickly. It looked like they were boxing a bunch of large orders, but I just wanted one doughnut. They had quite a few different options to choose from, but I just had to go with a classic. it looks like they have some seasonal flavors as well. I got the cinnamon roll donut which added up to $2 which feels like a steal. The icing was delightful but I will note that it was very much almost a bunt cake texture and not super "donut-y". read more

It was my first time going to Dazed and Confused last Thursday to bring donuts to work to share with my team and I was greeted by a very kind gentleman and I just had to order the ROCKSTAR and also ordered a side of 2 donuts and milk. The donuts were fresh and so delicious, this is my new go to place for bringing in donuts to work for the team. Thank you for your kind service. It was quick and I loved the atmosphere which was so vibrant. read more

So continuing my lifelong goal of trying every doughnut shop...this place is very good! I am normally NOT a fan of cake doughnuts at all, but these were very good! The cake was light, moist and very flavorful. The shop is very small with limited dine in options (there is a table outside). The woman working was very kind and patient while I made my decisions. I chose the cannoli "sandwich", strawberry lemon and cookies and cream. The cookies and cream was my favorite. The chocolate cake was absolutely delicious! I would love to try everything on the menu! I carried them all the way home to Charleston 2 days later and my husband couldn't believe how fresh they tasted even after traveling for 2 days! read more

We made a pitstop here to pick up some donuts for the ride home. They were absolutely incredible! And the owner was so kind to my daughters.

I can't review the donuts because twice now we didn't receive our order. I pre-ordered a dozen donuts on Grub Hub for my daughter's birthday. My order never arrived yesterday, so I re-ordered yesterday for delivery this morning. The driver just texted me to tell me they were sold out. I pre-ordered. How is my order not pulled and boxed for delivery today? I must say, this experience has left me dazed and confused. Update: Glazed and Confused called me immediately. They did have my order and Grub Hub did not verify that my order had been pulled. They are delivering my order themselves to SU today and offered to comp my order. I couldn't ask for better customer service! I also learned that they deliver within a five mile radius. Thanks again "Glazed and Confused", looking forward to trying your donuts myself the next time I'm in Syracuse. read more

Definitely a part of Syracuse I miss the most after moving away! They always have fun flavors throughout the week and a solid selection of permanent flavors. There isn't a lot of seating inside - it's definitely somewhere you get a box of donuts from and eat in the car. Their coffee is also really good! It's a one stop shop for some breakfast goods. I also really recommend the donut boxes they come out with during the holidays. read more

We decided to try this place while in town. This is not your ordinary doughnut place - the creations here are wonderful and a number of them could easily be a dessert. We decided to get a mixed dozen - here's our review: All of them have a cake doughnut base. They've got the cake doughnut down! It was moist and perfectly done. We tried a Blackout which is a chocolate cake doughnut with chocolate glaze and chocolate sprinkles - it was tasty! We tried a Blackberry Cobbler which is a cake doughnut with a blackberry glaze. This was the only one that disappointed - we just couldn't taste any blackberry - we only tasted cake - this one needs a re-design to give it some flavor. We tried the Nutella Tornado which was a doughnut with chocolate glaze, chocolate Nutella frosting, bits of brownie and a Nutella drizzle. Truly tasty - a dessert or a doughnut! We tried the Buckeye which was , a doughnut with peanut butter glaze, crushed peanuts, peanut butter buttercream frosting and a peanut butter drizzle - if you like peanut butter - this one is for you - we loved it! We tried the Cinnamon Roll which was a doughnut with cinnamon glaze, cinnamon streusel and cream cheese swirl. I love cinnamon so this was perfect for me. We have several other flavors that we'll try later but I suspect they will as be as awesome as the ones we've tried so far (Blackberry being the lone disappointment). This is a family owned business and all of the staff were very friendly. When we are back in town we will definitely come back!! read more

Awesome donut spot. Was downtown with hubby (at a Yelp event lol) and after leaving found this little piece of donut heaven around the corner. We saw their truck parked on the street and had to investigate, then saw the door front and ran right in. Lots of choices, with a few "normal" donuts and many specialty flavors. We tried four and they were all out-of-this-world tasty. Fair prices compared to other similar donut shops. Friendly service and the owner even offered us free coffee. Will be back again(and again)! read more

I sadly don't have any photos of donuts I have eaten here but every time I go, there are new flavors to try! I love getting their donuts during taste of Syracuse and will stop in whenever I am nearby. The staff are so friendly, the first time I went there it was a super chilly day and the owner gave me a free hot cocoa which was so kind. read more

These donuts are at least 3 steps above any other I've had locally. There are the classic options which are great, including chocolate, rainbow sprinkle, peanut, and cinnamon sugar, and then the extra decadent options which vary from week to week and include flavors like apple pie, s'mores, and pretty much anything sweet you can think of. This is the place to satisfy your donut cravings. read more

I tried 4 different kinds of donuts here, not including the complimentary cinnamon sugars they were giving away next to the register. I ordered a total of 5 and the total came to $13. Very, very reasonable for freshly made donuts. (I surrendered the 5th and final to my dad, who was happy to oblige). I asked the lady behind the register about the shelf life and she was honest and more or less said they should be consumed in the same day. Not only did I appreciate her honesty, but I also liked the answer. That tells me these things really are fresh and not like the commercialized crap that comes in the box and is sold in grocery stores. There were probably a total of about 12 different options. It wasn't an easy choice. They all look so appealing. Street parking, but driver beware. Parking on the same side of the street as this business is non-metered, but the sign right out in front of the donut shop is a 12 minute parcel pick-up/drop-off during certain hours on certain days. Don't block it. Parking across the street is metered. read more

Glazed & Confused is a cute, trendy little donut shop here. All their donuts are fresh, small-batch, cake-style donuts with both classic and unique (aka "confused") flavors to choose from! My roommate recently picked up a box for us to try, and while cake donuts aren't normally my thing, these were pretty tasty! My favorite was the "get shorty," aka a strawberry donut filled with vanilla buttercream and a strawberry jam. The donuts themselves are extremely sweet, but as a sweet tooth I did not mind. Whether breakfast or dessert, you'll enjoy these sweet treats! read more

I had stopped by for work and was treated to some of the donuts. The time and effort put into these is amazing. They were delicious and when I'm back in the area I will be making a trip to purchase more of these masterpieces. Thank you again for your generosity. read more

Glazed & Confused is a requirement if you're trying to experience Syracuse. Maybe not an every day or even every week experience, but keep them in the hopper for when it's time to treat yourself (or someone else) no matter the cost or dietary setback. All their donuts are cake style. Even the filled ones are filled through the hole in the middle, or cut in half and filled sandwich style. They have all the flavors I would have come in looking for; I think they've got the donut Spectrum covered pretty well. The flavoring and design are where the donuts really shine, but even the plain ones are out of this world. I honestly can't rank the donuts against each other. Go for what you're craving and know you'll get the best possible version of that. The pricing is the only thing keeping me out of a reckless habit. At $3.00 a pop for the exciting donuts, Glazed & Confused is stuck in the friend zone. At least until I'm able to triple my donut budget. They post daily on Facebook. Follow them to track their specials and changes in hours. (I learned this the hard way after banking my whole mother's day on a walk in donut run!) read more

The donuts are gorgeous! I rushed over to the shop a half hour before closing thinking I would have only a few options to choose from. But, I was able to get a dozen donuts - one of each of the twelve flavors featured that day. They were a hit at the small gathering I attended. I really enjoyed the French Toast donut with its lovely taste of cinnamon. Next time I go, I think I'll order online. When I arrived, I was the only person there but that changed lickety-split. Easily seven people walked in mere moments after I started to place my order making it feel a little claustrophobic. The music was pretty loud so it was already hard for me to hear and be heard. The added voices made it even more of a challenge and I could sense the person helping me get a little flustered. read more

I've been to some donut places but this one is just decadence at it's finest and some damn good donuts. The store itself is adorable with donut related decor all over the place and cheesy jokes on the ceiling. They have a wide variety of home made creative donut designs and all that I tried were super amazing. These gourmet treats are not cheap with a six pack of donuts costing me over $20! But if you're in the area I recommend you give it a try because you will not be disappointed! read more

Amazing donuts, and terrific service kind of the owner has really captured an audience with this place! You're gonna love it.

OMG....the donuts were very tasty but what a sugar rush. They are good, but 2 was 1 too many for me. Not because they lacked in anyway, to the contrary these donuts rocked. A few years ago I would have pounded a 1/2 dozen of these delicious creations without a second thought and been content with that. But, these days with my reduced sugar intake these are over the top. But, in a very good way. These are good in every way and are a must try... but bring your sweet tooth. read more

These doughnuts are magical. Like fix your day, right your feet, and paste a smile on your face kind of magical. There's love in these doughnuts. I can taste it. Cute little bakery with side street parking. Pop in and pop out for truly delicious doughnuts. A must for anyone passing through during business hours. read more

This place was a bit disappointing, to be honest. I enjoy sweets... a lot (recovering candy addict, here). I try not to eat them too much, so when I do, it is a genuine treat I can fully enjoy. I came up to Syracuse to try a sample a few of the top dessert spots I've missed, and this place was one of them. I tried the Milk N Cookies and the Black Out donuts, which are the type of chocolatey donuts I usually like. And I thought they were just... ok. They were extremely sweet to where there was no depth to the chocolate and cream flavors; the flavor was all sugar. I expected better than what I'd find at Dunkin' Donuts for 2-3x the price. As far as the experience in the shop, it was extremely chaotic. The employees took orders from both sides of the counter but no one was stationed in any specific place, so you had a bunch of customers waiting inside to speak to a cashier scattered around the perimeter to try and socially distance, whether you are ordering there or picking up. They don't seem to have a system in place to manage the chaos for this socially distanced time (and it's been over a year now). Also, when ordering ahead online, they did not have the option to select gluten free. Yes, they do offer GF donuts on Wednesdays and Saturdays. But I was not willing to assume they would respect the open text box, so I ordered a GF one in-person (my SO is GF). Overall, for a shop that specializes in donuts, I was disappointed in the quality. I prefer the donuts at The Sweet Praxis significantly more, as the flavors are better balanced with with the sweetness (and you actually get more for the same price, too). read more

Great customer service from a young man!! Picking up a tray of mini donuts and inquired if there was dairy in the mini donuts due to a severe food allergy the young man working the counter verified over the phone with the owner (his father) that he could give us a vegan donut with glaze and sprinkles. Provided us the donut at no charge so that this little girl would not feel left out when everyone else was eating from the tray. It's great to see that there are caring young people! I'm sure this young man will go far in life with the path he is currently on! Glazed and Confused has my business!!! Great job parenting you've definitely taught him great values!! read more

Such a fun and inviting place! The staff is always cheerful and welcoming. They have an excellent selection of cake donuts with all the fun flavor combos and toppings. On Fridays they do a special and call it "fill it Friday" where they have a yeast donut and fill/top it with a flavor. For fill it Friday I love "The Inside Job" which is a cannoli filled with chocolate icing and chocolate curls on top. I also LOVE anything jelly filled so their fill it Friday "Classic PB&J" is another favorite. If you haven't been here yet GET THERE and fulfill that sweet tooth! read more

We visited this place during the Covid-19 state, so the store only allowed one person in the store at a time. Thankfully they let both me and my husband in at the same time. ;) The employees here are so friendly and helpful and made us feel so welcomed! We got a box of five doughnuts (The Springfield + Orange Creamsicle + The Blackout + Cinnamon sugar) and it came to $6. The doughnuts are on the smaller side, but the flavors are unique and I think worth it. Next time I want to try the specials that come out on certain days - that'll have to wait! read more

For anyone who knows me - it's no surprise that donuts are my favorite. So when I read that Syracuse has its first "gourmet" donut shop I had to visit. Lucky for me my dad is always up for an adventure. And on a recent Tuesday morning we drove downtown to find this little gem of a shop. The shop itself is just outside Clinton Sq, around the block from Dino. There was plenty of meter parking across the street -- but for convenience they also have a handful of "12 minute pickup" parking spots right out front. You'll know the donut shop when you see it - the bright colors def. stand out against all the gray downtown buildings. and then there's the inside... it's all twinkly and full of character. Cartoon donuts painted on the walls, pops of purple, yellow and teal... and let's not forget about the disco ball spinning at the ceiling. All the color and twinkle won't distract you from the donuts tho - which are on full display. And the staff will outline the flavors and pricing structure for you.* We selected 5 to try... and spent a total of $10 for the variety. Elvis Strikes Back -- peanut butter frosting with a jelly drizzle.. and it's as delish as it sounds and my favorite of the day. Dizzy Pig -- maple frosting and bacon everywhere.. can you beat this combo? Uh no, this one is top notch as far as maple bacon donuts go. No Sleep Til Brooklyn -- chocolate + more chocolate + crushed up Kit Kat's and Reese's. Some may say its too much chocolate - I say those people are crazy. Glazed -- classic, cakey, perfect. Cinnamon Sugar -- classic, just enough sweetness and also perfect. There's also a coffee menu + milk options for beverages. And a window counter with stools for casually eating your donuts. Between the donuts themselves, the twinkle and the fun and friendly atmosphere - this donut shop is one to be reckoned with. Can't wait to see what classic and new flavor combinations they come out with in the future. * Simple flavors like cinnamon sugar and Glazed are $1, Elvis was $2, and NSTB is so extra it's $3. read more
