the oakleigh doughnut co, oakleigh
These doughnuts are NO ordinary doughnuts!
In the words of a well known and highly respected food critic, 'mmmmm, doughnuts..'
And these doughnuts are unlike the rest!
Formed around the owners Greek heritage, you will find such delicacies as; the bakladough, galakdough (mamma's favourite!), doughloumba - and other wonderful flavours like, red velvet, strawberry cheesecake and nutella ion!
There's also spectacular coffee - which makes for the perfect accompaniment.
Whilst there may be plenty of doughnut shops around, there aren't many that have the originality of these wonderful creations. The two brother's who own this little shop are most definitely on to a winner here!
