    Sunday dinner dessert!
    Janet P.

    I have found some of the yummiest donuts ever. Hula Buns Bakery is so awesome. Bitting into the fresh baked deliciousness lites me up. They have become my go to desert treat especially when I have guests. (Or when I want something delish) I highly recommend you give them a try. They are on my short list and always have my orders prepared, ready for pickup!

    Selections change, so it never gets boring.  They also have macarons, cannolis, and pizza!

    Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow!!! This place is amazing. Donut shop, but elevated! So glad we have such a great place to get fancy treats in Auburn. We have a great local donut place, too, but this place is special. The flavors and decorations are something you find in a big city, like Sacramento, so having it here is a treat on its own. We were also thrilled to se that they have malasadas. THAT is not easy to find up here. The flavors change, so you have to ask what the flavor of the day is. We got the passion fruit, and it was mild, but tasty. The Crème Brûlée was everyone's favorite, and had the signature crunchy sugar top. Hard to find, and their sandwich board is behind and around a few buildings, but if you GPS it, it's pretty easy. I think the sandwich board should be on the main street , but there is a big banner that says, "DONUTS". For a nice get together, or gathering, these donuts definitely pass as pastries. They even have a few pizza items to add to their sweet menu. We are definitely going to be return and frequent customers!

    Ahhhhhh-mazing!

    Oh, my goodness. If you want to up your donut game, find a time Hula Buns is in their shop...or out in their shaved ice/donut truck. The BEST, most unique donuts we've ever had -- and excellent customer service. You won't be disappointed!

    I usually don't get donuts from the store or local donut shops because you can taste all 200 ingredients in each bite, but that is not the case here.

    Ooooh Lord! Did I just die and go to heaven? How gorgeous is it in here!?…read more First off, I pulled in to the parking lot in front of Dunk 'n' Run Donuts and the woman working inside was smiling at me before I even got out of my car. I walked in at about 12:30 today. As I walked in, the showcase was about half full. I mean, 12:30 is kind of late to come and get donuts, however, there was still plenty of goodies for me!! After talking with Laura, I couldn't decide what I was going to get...Iwas actually here for just a couple of fashions, but after seeing the other options... how beautiful they were. They got me. Dunk 'n' Run Donuts reeled me in! So, how am I supposed to pick just a couple of old fashions? These donuts were sparkling at me! They had a beautiful glossiness to them. They were colorful! Vibrant! My eyes were absolutely eating first. The person that decorated them has major culinary skills... these were almost too pretty to eat! Ok, ok! We're talkin Creme Brule! Dubai! PB&J! Banana cream, Kinder's... and yes! I also got my family's favorite, the old fashion donut. The price for a dozen? $20.75, PLUS... extra for the gorgeous filled donuts. A whopping $42+ for this dozen donuts was quite the shock... is that the norm? Laura is so sweet and very fun to talk to. I hope I run into her again! Maybe next time, I will have a seat inside and order a cup of coffee with my donut. Let's dive into what I thought... Dubai Donut I like that they are keeping up with the trendy Dubai chocolate that's poppin all over. This one was filled with real pistachio cream!!! The top is dipped in dark chocolate.. thick chocolate, drizzled with green, and dusted with crumbs. It was so decadent. Creamy... sinful. It was not too sweet and then it was fudge and buttery at the same time. PB&J Peanut butter on top, with a dollop of white frosting and jam, filled with strawberry jam. This one was very sweet. After this one, I could've been done. Creme Brule This one has a dark caramelized color with a crispy top with a single raspberry, it has a cream filled center.. was it vanilla bean? It was soft, creamy, and crunchy all at the same time. I'm in the middle in this one. Kinder's This was a playful donut. Chocolaty top with a couple of Kinders crunchy pieces. The inside was filled with Nutella. This one is very sweet and if you love Nutella, this is the donut for you! Banana Cream It had creamy frosting in top with a banana chip and nilla waffer, with the tiniest mint leaf. The center was like banana cream.. maybe made with a banana liqueur? This one was so good! I loved the touch of the mint with banana flavor... but I'm not a banana chip fan. The old fashion donuts were perfectly delicious. They are simple compared to the donuts I described above, but sometimes, simple is better. These have a shiny chocolate, with crispy jagged edges. To me, they have the perfect frosting to donut ratio. Overall, I really enjoyed the dozen donuts I bought at Dunk 'n' Run. Out of the new ones I tried, I would have to say the Dubai Donut was a 10/10. I felt like the customer service was above and beyond. Laura is very sweet and fun to talk to. Was it worth a whopping price of $42+? Yes. The real pistachio cream is a hit. This isn't your average donut at some donut shop. I call these a masterpiece created by the finest food stylist that needs to be featured in a magazine. See you guys again, soon!!

    We went here for the first time this past weekend. It's a bit of a hike for us from West Roseville,…read morebut we wanted something different and it's the same distance from us as the appropriately hyped Rocklin Donuts and Cinnamon, so off we went. We got there about 9:30, and their selection was a little thin. They seemed busy and I'd guess the several people who walked in after me or on my way out may not have found much to buy. So that's my gauge on their popularity. I got some chocolate frosted bars and had them filled with custard for the husband and kids; I got a few raised chocolate donuts that were good. A little chewier than your average raised donut, which was interesting. Not a complaint, just an observation. The chocolate frosting was good. I bought a cinnamon roll that I ate bit by bit on the way home. It tasted more like a glazed donut than a cinnamon roll, but it was super soft, very sweet and was devoured. I wished I'd ordered a few more of those. They also had a crumb donut I didn't order but later wished I had. I did order a couple of cronuts, which I usually like but these didn't do it for me. I'm not sure I could elaborate other than saying taste and texture weren't for me. I also ordered a chocolate frosted cake donut that was solid, and ordered the one glazed donut they had left and the one sugar donut they had left. I didn't try them but none of the kids or their friends had any complaints. The place was nice, clean, and the service was friendly. I'd definitely try them again. Their round raised donuts I noticed were not entirely round, but had some angles to them almost like they might be cut with some element of a hexagon in them. Perhaps a signature? I uncharacteristically neglected to take photos. Next time!

So finally, on my way to Auburn last Saturday, I had time to stop and try some of their amazing food. I was greeted as I walked into this quaint mini market. Everyone was friendly and talking to me. It has been family owned for decades and they made me feel so comfortable, but I was not there to shop around. I was there to try the food goods created by the smoker and whoever does this delicious array of foods. There were many options to choose from in their heated display case. Burgers, breakfast burritos, brisket sandwiches, ribs... I think there were a couple more options, but I couldn't decide on one. So I went with some smoked pork ribs and a brisket sandwich. It was $28 & change. It felt a little on the expensive side for 4 ribs and a sandwich. However... it was damn delicious!! When I got home, I did add a little salt, pepper, & mayo in the brisket sandwich... and then for me, it was fire! The smoked pork ribs were soooo goooood with the dry rub that was on them. Tender and juicy ribs... mmmm! I'm not sure if sauced ones were available, but I really liked these the way they were. I look forward to coming back here to try the other lunch & breakfast items... as well as chatting with everyone that works here!!! I'll be sure to capture more photos next visit!

Evidently the owner had passed the month before we discovered her market. The gal tending to the store was phenomenal and so accommodating! I'm not a fan of premade hot sandwiches and she was great about making me one made-to-order. It took a bit as she was manning two jobs, but wow was it worth it. Brisket sandwich to go take to the cemetery to visit my mom. I really hope they remain open with the same service an true quality of food. The potato salad was also perfect. Not the sweet, sloppy stuff, true homemade fresh potato salad.

First and most important star: Pushkin's is predominantly vegan, gluten-free, and dairy-free -- and bakeries that truly excel in all three are one in a million. For anyone with allergies or dietary restrictions, this place feels like winning the lottery. You can actually relax and enjoy treats without feeling like you're settling or taking a risk. Second star: the employees are incredibly friendly and genuinely passionate. One guy (nose ring, long blonde hair -- didn't catch his name) was amazing. He knew the pastries inside and out and patiently walked my wife through allergy questions about dairy-free options, putting her totally at ease. And trust me, my wife can ask a thousand questions (till u wanna choke her).. Another employee -- a short, curly-haired, very light-skinned/mixed Black woman -- was just as gracious when we asked about cashews for our daughter. Both of them were beyond kind and knowledgeable. Third star: great coffee. I only had an Americano, but it was really good -- smooth, rich, and exactly what you want with pastries like these. Fourth star: the place is clean, organized, and clearly well-run. It was busy, but the team handled the crowd efficiently without feeling rushed or chaotic. Fifth star (the fun one): the pastries are ridiculously good. We tried a bunch: * chocolate mud cookie -- perfect crunch on the outside, chewy inside * cinnamon-roll-style pound cake -- super moist and flavorful * cinnamon roll scone * almond cake with raspberry ...and several others I didn't catch the names of. Everything was delicious. You'd never guess these are vegan/gluten-free/dairy-free -- they're just straight-up amazing pastries. Bottom line: Pushkin's is a gem. If you have dietary restrictions, it's a must-visit. If you don't, are you sure you don't? Maybe you should? it's still a must-visit. We'll absolutely be back when in town to check out the cafe and real food items !
