AMAZING homemade donuts in the heart of Ankeny!…read more Was introduced to Daylight donuts through Ankeny friends and they did not disappoint. Worth the drive if you're out and about in the morning. Visited on a Sunny day at 9am on a Wednesday and their donut case was full of treats! And they were tasty. Walked out with 2 glazed donuts for $2.xx before gratuity. Michelle, the owner, was very polite and welcoming. I've been to Daylight Donuts for a breakfast party before and it was such a great time. Daylight Donuts have been catered to events I've attended and their donuts are always a bit hit. The shop is full of mini Polaroid pictures on the walls that many patrons have taken and posted. Very quaint shop and inviting. Would definitely visit again and will try their milk teas.

It was our last day in Des Moines and I stopped by early morning to pick up a few things to bring…read morehome: 1) Pecan roll 2) Vanilla old-fashioned (2) 3) Chocolate old-fashioned (2) 4) Chocolate-glazed bavarian cream (2) 5) Blueberry cake donut (1) 6) Chocolate glazed cake donut (1) 7) Raspberry jelly (1) 8) Chocolate glazed cake donut with sprinkles (1) 9) Chocolate glazed yeast donut (1) We had a +6 hour drive home so I prepared an ice bag and insulated cooler bag to store the donuts. All of them held up for our drive. My personal favorites are the pecan roll, raspberry jelly, and blueberry cake. Interestingly, I noticed they have a sign for boba but I don't think it was available during the early morning hours. Some of the staff were just entering the store and preparing the boba as I was leaving around 9 am. And that's completely reasonable since most boba places aren't open until noon. Service was attentive and friendly. I had a few questions about some of the donuts and fillings and she was very helpful.

Great service! got free doughnut bites!!!!!! amazing people!!!!!doufgnuts were super duper yummy tooread more

By far the best place that sells the cronut. But you need to get there early because they sell out…read more Their other donuts are fantastic so you still can choose those options. What's great about that Is there's multiple fillings. So you can choose ones such as Bavarian cream or raspberry jelly, etc. The service is always exceptional and quick. If you choose to eat in the store, there's plenty of chairs and tables with the option of purchasing drinks like pop, coffee, including milk, which is extremely important when eating donuts. Another secret gem is their jalapeño cheddar sausage wrapped in a croissant. It's a must every time we go. This too sells out quickly so get there early.

We were craving an apple fritter and decided to have some delivered, along with a few other…read morepastries. While the apple fritter is the best we've ever had, the others left much to be desired. The menu showed a maple frosted & filled long john. We received a white frosted long john "filled" with what tasted like more frosting and maybe 2 teaspoons of it at the very end of the long john. This morning I was excited to have a jelly filled Bismarck. Again, there was maybe a teaspoon of white frosting inside, noticeably less than the long john.. No red jelly anywhere! I wanted the plain sugared Bismarck, but got a messy powdered sugar kind instead. Just very disappointed. Felt as though a local fuel station would offer better quality.
