Bringing a few sweet treats to work is a thoughtful gesture that your coworkers will appreciate. Donuts are among the most common and easiest to transport—and they’re also available in many flavors and styles. If you’re not sure where to start, below are several options to remember.

The Best Donut Flavors to Take to the Office

1. Boston Cream

For those who appreciate a classic, Boston cream doesn’t disappoint. The recipe consists of standard yeast donuts that with a silky, vanilla-flavored, custard filling, and a generous amount of chocolate glaze on top. The contrasting flavors pair well with one another and quickly satisfy any sweet tooth.

2. Sugar Raised

Some people prefer a simple flavor that offers sweetness, but not enough that it is overwhelming. The sugar raised recipe is another tried-and-true classic that consists of raised yeast that provides a light and airy consistency. The fluffy texture makes it a winner, but the lightly sugared top finishes it to perfection.

3. Sprinkle Topped

What says “party” better than sprinkles? If you’re celebrating a coworker’s birthday, then this festive and colorful topping is a must. You can find it on a variety of recipes, from yellow- to chocolate-cake donuts that have a plentiful amount of vanilla, chocolate, or strawberry icing. The crunchy sprinkles are a perfect contrast to the soft, delicious dough.

4. Jelly Filled

Another timeless treasure of the dessert world is the jelly-filled variety. True to its name, this doughy delight typically has a powdered sugar dusting or flavored glaze on top. and then a baker fills it with jelly. Typical fillings include cherry, strawberry, and blueberry, although any type of jam can complement the cake that surrounds it.

5. Maple Bacon

The maple bacon flavor has increased in popularity recently, thanks to renewed public appreciation for the savory meat. The topping makes a surprising—yet sensible—partner for the taste of ultra-sweet maple glaze, which coats the top of a cake- or yeast-based donut. The bacon adds a hint of satisfying crunch and contrasting flavor to the dish.
