Visiting
the first local food truck assembly, set to benefit the Copley
schools extra curricular programs, and the longest line continuously
through the day was in front of the little trailer named The Donut
Lab. When we strolled to the front to see what magical concoction
had so many people in the que we discovered you could have your
donuts one of three ways (no splits, please). 1. Powdered sugar. 2.
Cinnamon sugar. 3. Nuthin’. I was confused, I had expected some sort
of wildly decadent sweet wonder of lore, sort of like glowing eternal happiness in
a bag. I would stand in line for that. 10X or cinnamon sugar...not
so sure. |

It's A Wee Little Trailer |
|
The trailer contains an
automated cake donut dropper/fryer/flipper/lifter, much like krispy
kreme kitchens, without yeast raised options, in miniature. Yes,
they serve hot, fresh fried donuts. I was spoiled for a couple of
years in a scratch bakery. I’ve had it all piping hot and fresh.
Better than a bag at a store, these were missing a dose of flavor
(fall spice most often) resulting in lightly sweet greasy fried cake
and not much else. Yes…those things are good but they would have to
be so much better to make this little trailer a destination. Their
facebook page
shows pictures of other options…but none today. |
