Today my boss brought in some donuts from Dunkin Donuts for our Friday morning staff meeting. I ate a glazed donut. Now I am trying to log it. I see in the database here as well as DD's website that there are glazed donuts (260 calories) and glazed cake donuts (360 calories). I cannot figure out what I had! Anyone care to help?

    cake donuts are totally different. Was it a "regular" donut? if so, that's the 260 cal one.

    Cake donuts have a more crumbly, dense texture, while glazed are the soft, fluffy kind.

    It was a regular donut. A Google image search gave me similar pictures for both types so I was confused. Thanks for the help.

    I used to be a baker.

    What is referred to as a glazed donut is a yeast raised donut. It is light and sort of fluffy inside.

    A glazed cake donut is heavier and denser inside. The cake donut would also be darker in appearance most likely.

    I think I might be the only person in the world who doesn't like donuts.

    If you ever have this problem again, I'll PM you my address. I accept donuts through the mail.
