California Donuts

High point:  The joy the kids had when we brought them home that Panda and Simpsons donuts. California Donut's colorful cereal-inspired donuts are also a sight to behold.
Low point:  Still a little too greasy for my taste.

California Donuts

Overall impression: Donuts continue to be a hot food trend at the moment -- but in a sea of pricey gourmet treats, California Donuts is the most economical (and fun).

California Donuts

Will we return: Yes, with the kids in tow.
