Anything from Olivari's before they sold to a bunch of retards that started buying all their ingredients and recipes from the same people literally every donut shop in America seems to buy from. It eventually turned into a sandwich shop because all the old customers immediately knew it was all wrong and never came back.
Never seen any shop that had as light and pillowy yet evenly risen and still satisfying dough, the texture was suuuuuper fine. Crispy cream's regular glazed are the closest, and yet fall noticably short. I suspect the flour was something special.
Or the glazes and frostings. Oh god the glazes and frostings.
They'd do a crispy-cream like glaze on all their donuts, bars, and cinnamon rolls/twists, but even thinner (we're talking fractions of a millimeter thick) and more delicate, and then ALSO frost them, and while their frosting only had maple or chocolate flavor, both were like no frosting you've ever had on a donut, somehow more subtle and yet more distinctly flavored than anything I've found before or since, especially the maple in comparison to the dreck found almost everywhere, and all of it maintained that needed crustiness you expect from a donut glaze or frosting...just...better.
They were an ungodly mess to eat but you never gave a shit, was worth it every time.
