sixty donuts + a giveaway! CLOSED


The FIFTH DOZEN!

I am beyond proud to say I have completed the 60th of my 101 DONUT PAN IDEAS! I was just looking back at all of the donuts and I have to say, I'm so happy with all of them. They were all delicious, inventive and gorgeous. I managed to make two separate donuts inspired by foods made famous on Seinfeld, and I made spot-on donut-shaped Twinkies for goodness sake. Super proud!

It took me a long time to get to this point. I finished the fourth dozen at the end of April! I will be picking up the pace in the new year as I start looking for a publisher in earnest. Who knows if a book will come to fruition, but I have to try, right?

Here are the links to the twelve most recent donut pan ideas:

piñata cakes (boy, those were popular!)

To celebrate making it to sixty, I'm doing another giveaway! Wilton, the company that makes the pans I use, is sending the winner a brand new set of donut pans, and I am going to be sending the winner a little surprise package of handmade items that you may or may not have seen here over the last few months as well.

If you'd like to enter the giveaway, just leave a comment below. I'd love to hear which donut was your favorite out of this last dozen (for the first time, I honestly can't choose a favorite), but that is not required to be entered in the contest. I will randomly select and announce the winner next week, but please leave your comment by 5:00 p.m. Sunday, December 22nd. If for some reason you have trouble commenting here (I hope not, but some people tell me they do), you could try leaving a comment on the corner blog Facebook page instead and you will be entered.


Here's the fine print from Wilton:

Contest is open only to legal residents of the 50 United States of America, Washington, D.C.(excluding US territories and possessions) or Canada (excluding Quebec), who are eighteen (18) years of age or older. Void where prohibited by law.


And here are links to the previous four dozen donuts:





Thanks so much for playing along with me on this! Anytime I hear from someone about these it feels really good. It's a super-silly pursuit, I realize this, but I take it pretty seriously. I'm obsessed! So, thanks again! xoxoxo

  1. How fun! I always drool over the doughnut recipes on your blog but I don't have the pan to ever attempt them! I'd love to get my hands on one, the list of recipes I want to try is extensive. I would love to make the monkey bread ones, we used to make bundt cake sized ones all the time when I was little.

  9. My favorite donut was the donut shaped twinkie.I'm going to try making these.I think it's unique how a donut with a hole still has icing stuffed inside of it.

  12. The monkey bread donuts look so easy and to-die-for! I'm afraid of recipes where I have to make my own dough and am so excited I don't need to for these! Maybe they'll be spotted on my New Year's Day brunch table.
