Who doesn’t love a lovely hot donut every once and a while.
Warm cinnamon coated delights that ooze a cool sweet dollop of jam after a hearty bite. What’s not to love eh? .
Getting hungry? Well we have just the place in mind for those craving a sweet treat!
In fact,Aussies have been raving about the American Doughnut Kitchen for over 70 years.

You read that correctly folks! This doughnut shop has enjoyed mainstream success in the city of Melbourne where it has been operating since 1950, serving locals from near and far with their classic cinnamon sugar-coated doughnuts filled with fresh raspberry and plum jam.
Selling their doughnuts in a tiny tin van, the shop has remained open in Queen Victoria Market since 1950 when two friends named Arnold and Dave purchased the business.
Today, the families of Arnold and Dave are operating the business.
While the management of the business has been passed down to Arnold's and Dave's families, American Doughnut Kitchen follows the exact same recipe for the doughnuts they're selling since they first opened.

The doughnuts are being sold for $15 for a pack of 10, while their secret and specialty made raspberry and plum jam are being charged for $7.50.
And the shop has enjoyed so much mainstream success that it has gained a cult following among Aussies and other foodies from across the globe.
One fan said: "These are a must for when you're in Melbourne."
"I just got home and am sitting down to enjoy these wonderful doughnuts... they are something else," another quipped.
A third said: "They are quite simply delicious."
Now, unfortunately, not all of us are in Melbourne, so heading over there for a couple of donuts might be a tad arduous. Well why not make a few donuts from the comfort of your own home then?
