15 band-inspired doughnuts that actually exist for National Doughnut Day
There’s pretty much a “holiday” for anything and everything you can imagine, and doughnuts are no exception. Today marks National Doughnut Day, and we’re celebrating the only way we know how: music-inspired offerings, and California-based Donut Friend has us all covered.
Former Drive Like Jehu drummer and producer Mark Trombino (Jimmy Eat World, Motion City Soundtrack) helms the vegan doughnut shop, which makes the pop punk and alternative takes a perfect fit. Check out 15 doughnuts that are either still sold or ran for a limited time in honor of your favorite bands below.
