Eat More Hole Foods

Every single time I make it over to the Providence Flea, I discover at least a dozen brand-new-to-me (micro) local businesses.

One of marvelous emerging businesses I stumbled on a while back is the Black Dog Donuts food truck, a family run venture established in 2020 (anyone who launched last year, that alone deserves massive amounts of applause and respect) and based in Exeter.

And I really like that their freshly baked (on the truck no less!), cake style doughnuts are MINIS: No disrespect to other Rhody based donut makers, but sometimes less is more, more, MORE!

I mean, not one but two bites sized means you can splurge on multiple flavor experiences, instead of eating your way thru a single ginormous donut and then immediately following, being way too full to even look at another sweet. (Time for a nap perhaps?)

We actually picked up a 1/2 dozen for the very sharp price of $6.75, opting for their 2 Cinnamon Sugar, 2 French Toast, and 2 Chocolate Chocolate Chip.

And my one regret? We should have bought a few dozen !!!

As is the norm these days — and because I think we can all agree that people want variety — they do change up their menu weekly, so you might end up with a slightly different yet equally delicious mix.

Black Dog Donut Squad (as their called on Insta) also has their signature “Squad Cups” with layers upon layers of either cake, brownies or doughnuts and whipped cream.

They do all the work (have YOU glanced at the steps for making cake cups, let’s just say the process sounds like quite the pastry adventure) and you get to enjoy the finished product.

As always, if you pick up some donuts or dessert cups after reading this, please do let them know that you found out about them here via Patty J and PattyJ.com.
