    Jalapeño croissant  donut goodness.
    Cristian B.

    The delicious and crispy donuts and Croissant donuts, along with the friendly service, make this a great spot to relax and unwind after a long day on the road everyone should definitely come and visit! The place is a great chill spot for people hang out.

    This has got to be my favorite local donut spot. They sell out all the time, and it took me a few times to try various donuts since they were just out of some. Well at first, the ones I tried kept me coming back! Now I know to show up early, and get my dozen. There is something that sets this place apart. It's not just an apple fritter...it's the best apple fritter I've ever had. It's simple enough-the dough is soft and moist while the sugar is crisp with an almost buttery like melt in your mouth feel. Karen even though I have to run extra miles because of your donuts...I'm still gonna indulge-then run :))

    Good dense donut! Will come here again when near by! Couldn't take a picture of the other donut cause I already ate it lol

    Karen's Donuts like the inside picture depicts is a pretty straight-forward donut shop. It has relatively easy access and there is ample parking. This is a cash only business. I had my Apple Fritter and coffee. The coffee was on the milder side, but it wasn't watered down. The Apple Fritter, see pic, was about the same diameter as others but was about half as thick as others. This fritter was crunchier, but not over cooked. It had the expected apple filling and sweet glaze. While we enjoyed our Apple Fritter there, it seemed to us that several "regulars" came in and we saw several Maple Bars (as well as Apple Fritters) being sold - FYI.

    The donuts are delicious and very affordable. I got one maple donut this morning and the glaze was good. The donut was a little too greasy for me. Service was fast and the staff are always friendly. It is a cash only place so be aware of that. The seating is limited and the place is clean. It's mostly a take and go place. Would recommend and go again.

    The donut still tasted good just wish they had a normal amount of jelly in it

    Service was great but the donuts weren't…read more There was a decent selection of donuts and they were all reasonably sized. The flavors were not distinct and the icings resembled each other. The dough was oily and dense. Rather than a fluffy bite, each chew fought back. The maple bar was the least offensive and had the most distinct flavor. The plain glaze was strangely bland and dense. The chocolate glaze was similarly boring and tasteless. The donut holes were some of the toughest pieces of fried dough. The shop looked clean but the donuts did not taste fresh. The icing and toppings need to pack a stronger punch and the dough recipe should be revised to incorporate an airier element.

    Ugh... I hate doing this I really do because I'm all for supporting local/small business…read more.. But I'm very disappointed honestly. We came here before & I took a bite out of my husband's sandwich & I wasn't feeling it then either really... But I went again today & got some more donuts for me & the family. I don't want to mention the time I went because I'm sure they can figure out who I am & I don't want that because I already feel bad... But the donuts were not good... so much so even my kids said they didn't like it... the donuts themselves taste like old oil. So now I know they use old oil because last we went I could literally smell it & when I tasted my husbands sandwich it tasted exactly the same... I'm sorry I really am. I always try to leave good reviews for small mom & pop locations like this but it would be unethical if I wasn't honest in my review... please don't buy donuts here. I rather Jenny's donuts, Manna donuts, or even yum yum honestly for the price I paid! Let's just say the donuts averaged $3 each and not even there "fancy" kind. So said to say honestly.

Twenty-two years living and eating in Redlands and I have never felt so at home and fancy at the same time. I randomly popped in to their shop for a sweet lil something to go several months ago and was blown away by their strawberry shortcake dream - with the creamiest most delightful frosting I have ever tasted. This frosting is beyond amazing I wanted to buy a tub of it, but it's not for sale in tubs, only on the cupcakes. Biting into the strawberry shortcake cupcake greets your taste buds with fresh slivered strawberries tucked inside, whispering that this decadent choice is absolutely worth it. Served by friendly faces that make you feel like a regular from the first visit. "Yeah fancy but y'all is welcomed"Come sit down or grab and go - it's worth whatever you have time to invest. More than sugar is blooming at Sugar Bloom: great pastries, creativity, and lattes with a high end all should come vibe.

I was craving some sweets for myself so I decided that a rainy Thursday evening at 6 PM would be a great idea to get a chocolate doughnut lol. I pulled up Yelp and saw the Foster's Donuts was just a block away. As I was pulling up to the donut shop I wasn't expecting much of a selection at this time of day. However, I was pleasantly surprised to see that there was still a great selection of donuts and probably at least 10 to 15 chocolate bars or twists. We were both ecstatic to see that they had our favorite donuts and we picked up two of them. I believe the lady who helped us is one of the owners and she was very sweet and even offered my son a little extra treat! I must admit that when I took a bite of the chocolate bar, I was shocked at how soft and fluffy the donut was. I was fully expecting a dry end of the day donut!
