You’ll Never Look At Donuts The Same Way After Trying FROST Donuts in Washington

Washington is home to some incredible desserts. Still, it's hard to beat a high-quality donut. Lovers of this classic confection will find some of the best donuts in Washington at this Mill Creek spot. FROST has specialized in elevated donuts since it first debuted in 2009. In the 15 years since, it's made a name for itself, bringing this classic American treat to new levels of deliciousness.

In the "treat yourself" era, it's become commonplace for businesses to cash in on the concept of indulgence as self-care. The mentality is so ubiquitous it's easy to forget what made the notion liberating in the first place. That's why it's so refreshing to discover a place where the food really does what it sets out to do: serve up comfort, one bite at a time.

Though its exterior is nothing to write home about, FROST's interior is an exuberant, pastel celebration with a distinctly retro-Jetsons vibe. It's the perfect spot to relax on a Saturday afternoon or swing through post-work.

But the donuts here are the true stars of the show. They've won the Seattle Metropolitan Magazine's competition for the region's best donut, and there's a range of choices to please every palate.

Admittedly, when it comes to donuts, I'm a bit plain Jane. But if a shop can't produce a top-notch Boston Cream, doesn't that tell you everything you need to know? I'm happy to report the Boston Creams here are my guilty pleasure, and if I'm in the area, I have to talk myself down from getting one. Or two. Or three.

In addition to donuts, FROST also has an enticing selection of macarons. I've not dabbled yet, but these two-bite cookies would make a fantastic surprise gift. Also, traditional macarons are naturally gluten-free! Check with FROST's staff to assess any risk of cross-contamination.

Whatever direction you choose, pair your goodie with a delicious mug of coffee. Don't forget to dip your donut in the espresso drink if you want to look like a pro. It's a winning combination.

And for diners in a rush, a box of donuts is the best way to make yourself a workplace or homecoming hero!
