My friend B-side Ben once declared the buttermilk donut from Tasty Donuts to be, quite possibly, the “best donut in Los Angeles.” Wow, that was a bold statement and required a joint venture follow-up.
Ben came over with donuts in hand, yet panic on his face. Apparently, Tasty Donuts was out of the original Buttermilk donut, but they did have the same version, rolled in cinnamon sugar crumbs. No problemo Ben, your Dessert Darling can still detect if these donuts are winners or not!
Mmmmm, I completely see where Ben was coming from! The FLAVOR, the buttermilk FLAVOR is the secret ingredient to success here. The slightly sour and creamy ingredient helps balance the intense sweetness that’s intrinsic in a glazed donut. It’s such a soothing, sweet, and buttery taste, that you can’t help but continue monching on the thing, no matter how large or dense it is!
Which leads me to, Yes, these are large and dense donuts, but the glaze seeps through, keeping them joyfully moist and delightful for every bite. Your best plan is to share with a friend!

better than Donut Man? The blogosphere is gonna stone you!
And what does it take to have B-side personally bring a donut? I mean… kinda feeling green right now.
Yay! You had it! I still need to get over there and try one. Right after I finish the brownies a friend is dropping by my apartment today. My waist line may never recover!
Wow, it looks like a ham but still looks delicious.
Ah ha, a Food Photographer I am not. But perhaps I should invest in a better camera!
You need to steal Ben’s doughnut photos and include them here. They sound amazingly delicious, hopefully one day I will get to LA to try them!
