Hello my friends! I am posting my follow up to my last post on Frida's Pies. This is L.A. Donuts, the donut shop that sits next to the iconic pie shop. Both restaurants have been founded by the same owner, Frida Deguise and they compliment each other so well.

And look how beautiful the shop is! All adorned in pastel pink tiles and a cute neon donut sign.

As you walk in, to your right are all the fresh donuts presented neatly in their glass cabinets. And best of all they are all reasonably priced, with the Original glazed donut starting at $3.50 each.

The Homer Donut and Fairy Bread Donut

I picked up a couple of donuts, nice and fat and fresh. I can never say no to a sprinkled iced donut and was delighted to see one based on the iconic Simpson's one. I also bought their famous 'Aussie Pineapple' flavoured one (not pictured) and one bite took me back to my childhood. This flavour was around alot in the 90s and it has a sweet and tropical flavour with a pale yellow icing. I liked the ratio of donut to icing - not too much and only coating one side.

The Homer Donut was my favourite. A classic one with strawberry icing and rainbow sprinkles. Again, the dough was fresh and generous in size, which is what I love. I picked up the Fairy Bread flavour because I loved the name! It had a buttery glaze and of course adorned with more sprinkles. These childhood flavours took me back. Simple but done well.

The shop itself is lovely to sit in, with three to four tables and chairs. The Bakery also offers coffee and so it make for a great breakfast combination. After grabbing our pies from Frida's Pies next door me and my friend sat in here to eat them with our coffees. Around us the bakers were cooking up donuts and shelving them to cool before they got iced. It was a nice atmosphere.

We left the shop full and happy. We chatted about what we did in our spare time and plotted on how we can continue living a life of leisure for the rest of our lives.... we can only dream.

On another note, I was pleased with the photos I took on my camera, the lighting was soft yet bright inside, with lots of natural light streaming in. I didn't have to do much post editing. After me and my mate finished up I got some takeaway donuts and pies and headed out to deliver them to our friends.

A short, simple and sweet post for me today - I have been trying to get myself back into routine since I started full time work again a couple of months ago. And I have missed blogging! I let the photos today do all the talking. I hope to keep posting my backlog for everyone. I hope you've all been well. Talk soon.
