Once a month, Darling Doughnuts also serves what they call “doughrogies” doughnut-pierogi hybrid which get turned into savory flavors like everything bagel or pizza with cheese, tomatoes and pesto.

In addition to the cases of their yeast doughnuts, they also offer additional breakfast selections like cake doughnuts and homemade pop-tarts.
