Dutch settlers brought olykoek ("oil(y) cake") to New York (or New Amsterdam) in the early 18th century. These doughnuts closely resembled later ones but did not yet have their current ring shape.

I molded my cardboard into a rough cone, then glued it, then trimmed the bottom until it stood up well balanced. I clipped some branches from a live Christmas garland that I had bought, and I also collected some beautiful leaves from our property. They both make awesome trees!

Bill Rosenberg opened Open Kettle in 1948, a restaurant selling donuts and coffee in Quincy, Massachusetts (a suburb of Boston), but he changed the name in 1950 to Dunkin' Donuts after discussing with company executives.

They were originally called "oily cakes."

Tiered donut towers

7-8 dozen mini donuts of your choosing fit perfectly on a 5 tier stand.

If we took a circle and shrunk it down, it would never become a point. The space inside the boundary prevents it from doing so. Hence, a circle has one hole. A donut, similarly, would have one hole.
