Pumpkin spice refers to the things you add to pumpkin to produce pumpkin pie (cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, ginger) It doesn't include pumpkin because it's a mix you add to pumpkin But if you're eating a "pumpkin spice _______" it will often have a little pumpkin added too to get the whole experience

Pumpkin spice should be called "pumpkin pie spice" but yeah, it's just warming spices. White people garam masala.

Eh. It goes by both names all the time. Sauces or spices can be like "fry sauce" where it's made for the thing, or it can be like fish, soy, and buffalo sauce where it's made OF the thing. Nobody gets a side of fry sauce and expects fried potato as an ingredient

https://imgur.com/a/OmBEBoP I worked last night and I woke up too late to do anything cool so I did ten cups of self rising flour and five cups of buttermilk which conveniently fills a half pan to the brim which makes rolling a uniform thickness much easier. I also scored the donuts to make them craggy and crunchy this time and hit them with a milk and sugar glaze which was a nice balance to the buttermilk funk. I shook the holes up with some cinnamon sugar because I fried them last. There was a double rainbow when I got there and zero donuts when I left and the whole time in between everyone told me how great they were. So my quickest dirtiest recipe gets rave reviews I’m excited to see the reception for the really meticulous bullshit.

with the enormous caveat that ive never baked anything more complicated than out of the box recipes in my life and therefore don't really know how to identify good baked goods: i would probably eat those, unless the first bite tasted bad, then i woudl not

Those donuts look fine, they just look like your typical homemade donuts which won't win a beauty contest but are perfectly fine. So, thanks for making me hungry for fresh donuts at 8PM on a Saturday night

Rationale posted:https://imgur.com/a/OmBEBoP I think those look fine, honestly; one place I used to go to would just not make buttermilk donuts in donut shape, they would make them as little buttermilk bars (rectangles roughly the same or slightly smaller in length than the diameter of the rest of their donuts) this is basically what they sold, looked more or less like this picture with the same variance between donuts:

Just be sure not to offer any "Original Glazed" flavor as Krispy Kreme holds the trademark for that https://www.instagram.com/reel/Cj9E4cIs3uQ/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link Speaking of this place, they too are going for the "upscale boutique donut experience" rather than a greasy spoon Dozen-for-five-bucks kinda deal. Here's how they did their buildout, if you want to draw any inspiration, since they've been crushing it for years now and even expanded to a few locations   They only put out ~1-3 of each flavor on the display, so they can use the ones that turned out the nicest & make it look like they only craft a select few artisanal donuts each day. You get to the front of the LONG rear end line  And you'll be pumped to see there's exactly one of your favorite flavor left so you slam that $4.50 button, wait for your donut to be brought out on a plate and take a quick selfie before chowing down (there are QR codes at each table which launch Instagram w/ front-facing camera active and auto-tag the business in the post) It's quite a lavish affair. They have 2-3 cashiers working at a time but they also have customer experience coordinators who come to you while you're waiting in line and ask what sort of Experience you're looking for today, what type of donuts you've enjoyed in the past, etc to ensure you get the right fit. Their overhead is insane with no fewer than 5 employees at all times, and premier locations near the highest paid employers or most upscale shopping districts, with rents to match! That's important though because they need to be in the right location if they're going to target people who can and will wait 30 minutes to pay $9.25 for a coffee and a donut You can also nab a half or full dozen for a minor $/donut savings, but that's typically booked out pretty far in advance

Don't bother making the donuts look better just call the place ugly donuts or something and make that your schtick. I mean, if they taste good people will talk about it because it has an interesting thing, right?

They’ve got the boutique ‘feel’ down without actually providing anything like good service or unique experiences. 20 bucks for 4 cookies is a criminal offense imo.

The writing was on the wall the moment the city became "hip" enough to even conceive the concept of the Portlandia show.  Semi-related: Conservatives in red states that I occasionally keep in contact with for god-only-knows-why love to trot out the whole "people are running away from California in droves!" horseshit line, but it usually makes them stop and think when you point out that they're gonna move to the cheaper red states and bring their politics + COL with them.

Presumably she did other stuff too, but that was the part she kept telling us about. I won't walk ten minutes out of my way for a donut, while some people will apparently deal with airport security for them.
