Amy's Donuts

Amy’s Donuts has been on my radar for quite some time. With their location being on the westside, it took some planning to make trip out there. (I know, I know – everywhere in Columbus takes 20-30 minutes MAX, but, it just felt so far!) Not being familiar with this part of town, I thought I would have trouble finding it. However, you can’t miss the bright orange and pink stripped building that resembles an old school taco bell.

Walking in was a sensory overload – in a good way. The smells. The colors. The warm smiles. The decor. The vibe. Everything was perfect. They offer a full range of creative donuts, from a plain cake donut to a variety with toppings such as oreos, gummy worms, fruity pebbles, coconut, lucky charms, peanut butter, fresh fruit and more. I love the spin they’re putting on the classic donut. Everyone can find something they will enjoy.

When I found out they did field trips, I instantly emailed them and texted all my donut loving friends. It was quite easy to set-up. I emailed them. They emailed me. We picked a date. We confirmed the date. That was it! VERY EASY. You can email them right from their website or call.

When we walked in, they had our tables set up. The middle table was filled with icing and toppings – a dream! Their were also two donuts at each chair.

The rainbows were a big hit with the kiddos!

The first part of the trip was to learn how to decorate the donuts.

This is Tyra. She led our field trip. She was so great, very sweet!

Tyra taught us the perfect way to ice the donut – just put it directly in the icing and hold it their for 4 seconds! It came out perfect.

L picked blue for both of his donuts.

I think he is wondering what else he could add to his donuts!

After decorating their donuts, we headed back to the kitchen for a tour. First step? Rolling out the dough!

How cool is this kitchen tool? After they roll the dough out, they use this to cut perfect donuts.

They take the middle part out to make their donut holes. No wasting this precious dough!

Next, they went on the pan to head to the oven.

I wanted to eat each and everyone one of these. Freshly glazed donuts, yes!

After we watched how they made each of the donuts, we headed back out to our tables. The kiddos were able to finish decorating if they wanted or they could EAT them, which is what I chose to do. I mean L chose to do. 😉 It was a GREAT trip, very kid friendly. Oh, did I mention it was FREE? Well, minus the dozen donuts I bought, but, that was a necessary purchase.

Very affordable pricing.

It was SO hard to decide which 12 to get. I loved each and every one of them. I know this because I tried all of them. YUM! I’m not sure which was my favorite.
