And in Ohio, there's perhaps no better place to get your donut fix than Destination Donuts.

True to its name, this Columbus bakery is *the* premier donut destination in all of Ohio!

You'll find Destination Donuts at 3519 N High St, Columbus, OH, 43214. This donut shop used to be part of North Market, but moved to a stand-alone location earlier this year. Welcome to the neighborhood!

You'll find every donut imaginable at Destination Donuts, from classic chocolate and sprinkle-topped confections to next-level fusions like Lemon Blueberry and Salted Caramel Pretzel.

There is also a well-represented vegan constituency here, with plant-based varieties on the menu each and every day! This is unheard of with most Ohio bakeries, and we're here for it.

But of all the varieties, the Butterscotch & Smoked Sea Salt donuts hold a very special spot in our hearts -- and stomachs. These are like your classic glazed variety from, say, a certain alliterative national donut chain... but better. Way better. Next-level better.

Perfect every single time, these are the kinds of donuts that will have you licking your fingers and wishing you had a second. So buy a dozen. Or two. Just to err on the side of caution.

When you see the Butterscotch & Smoked Sea Salt donuts on the menu, run -- don't walk! -- to claim yours. You might even have to hop in the car for a Destination Donuts day trip. We fully support this, as these donuts are 100% worth it.

Full disclosure: I live in Cincinnati and have 100% driven up to Columbus on more than one Saturday morning just for the Butterscotch & Smoked Sea Salt donuts from Destination Donuts!
