This morning we visited Doughnut Plant which we heard about via Saveur Magazine & our pal Naomi's instagram. 🙂 It was only a short walk from our hotel. There were too many amazing flavors, so we ordered a bunch to sample and share. My favorites were the coconut and rose flavors, Emma liked Pistachio, Trey was into the Peanut Butter and Jam flavor, and Jeremy loved the Crème Brûlée.We've really enjoyed this trip to NYC. It was mostly a work trip, but we were lucky enough to squeeze in quite a few quick meet-ups with friends and enjoy some otherworldly treats as well. I'll be back soon to share more photos from our trip. It's been incredibly productive and inspiring!
What did you do this weekend? xo. Elsie and Emma

I got to meet you guys this weekend! My fiancé and I went to the Sucre show and I had the pleasure of getting to chat with you guys a little bit! It was really cool getting to actually talk with you both in person… I know it sounds funny, since this was the first time we ever met, but I feel like you’re both old friends! I’m sure you get that a lot with the type of business you’re in… But I just wanted to say how really great it was to see you guys! You are both so inspiring to me and you were just as friendly and sweet in person as you are online!
Cheers!
Chrissy
Doughnut Plant is amazing! I’m with Emma on the pistachio!
the donut “pillows” are too cute! Love your glasses, Emma!

What a great blog, I am just discovering.
This weekend I cleaned house, made soup, meditated, entertained my kids and their friends, did some artwork, and we hosted a listening party.
I am beyond happy that I got to meet you last night at the Sucre show! By far the highlight of my evening! You are just as sweet in person as you seem online! And your husband is one talented man!!! (On the keyboard and drums at the same time?! That takes some skill and it was an honor to have seen him and the rest of Sucre live!!). You inspire me daily and you are the reason I decided to start blogging! So glad you enjoyed your stay here on the east coast 😉 xoxoxo
yum… i really want to try square donuts now. I’m intrigued!
I LOVE doughnuts, and these look simply amazing! I will be sure to remember this on my next trip to NYC.
elsie! i love your head scarf/hair ensemble! it looks so great! probably going to have to sew myself some adorable stuffed donut wall art like these too! So cute! my kitchen needs some new decor.

Love this post! Actually planning a trip to NYC for June and Doughnut Plant has now topped my list. Can’t wait to see more posts about this trip!
This weekend I spent some time with friends at the asian fusion San Jose hotspot, Sino, and hit the beach in the Opal Cliffs area of Santa Cruz! Happy Weekend! 🙂

Man, I have wanted to go to the donut plant for like a year and a half! It’s pretty far from where I live in Australia, but I’ll get there! Thanks for the inspiration.

our weekend was also with sweets but with beer, a lot of beer.

That face totally says, “I’m gettin’ me some doughnuts.”
Love it. You guys are too cute.
Love the glasses, can you share the brand? I love reading your blog it makes me smile.
I love doughnut plant the rose flavor is so yummy! Glad you had a blast here. Next time around you must check out DOUGH in Brooklyn it’s soooo good! They have a hibiscus doughnut and a lemon poppy seed one that’s to die for!
What is the model of your bonlook glasses?
I love donuts! Like seriously one of my favorite all time treats! This weekend consisted of lots of snuggling with hubbs and baby, which couldn’t be better! Can’t wait to see the rest of your trips pics!

Elsie, where is your jacket from?!
This place is so cute! I’m definitely going to go there when I get to visit New York! Thanks for sharing this with us!
We had doughnuts this weekend, too! We have a great little “townie” doughnut shop here. I’m starting to love it all too much. If you are ever north of Boston, let me know, and I’ll give you the inside scoop! 🙂
This looks super duper awesome! Fly me to New York now!
Mmmm… Rose? What a unique flavor. Coconut is always a fav of mine
I will be going to NYC in two weeks for the weekend. I can’t wait. I’ll definitely be stopping by Doughnut Plant.
Beautiful photos – I can’t wait to get to NYC… hopefully next year on my big honeymoon 🙂

this place looks fabulously amazing. yummy!
Hi! Where did Emma’s glasses come from?! I’m new to wearing glasses, and I’m not 100% into the pair I have now. Help?
yum! those look absolutely insanely good

Oh my… goodness. Now I’m drooling… and it’s midnight. Donuts are not a good thing to be craving right now! Lol
♥Emma Deer
We have a little donut shop where I live but it is not nearly as cute as this one is! I need to move to a place with cuter shops, hah.
I love seeing the things you guys go out and do!

Are doughnuts the new thing? I definitely prefer them over cupcakes. They just opened a gourmet doughnut shop down the street from me.
http://bit.ly/ZjeOsW
Holy potatoes. You were here in town?!? That makes me ever so delighted. What does not delight me is that I was seriously craving Doughnut Plant this weekend, after being in LA for a few months, and didn’t make it there.. I cannot imagine a possible better way to meet you two than in the magick that is Doughnut Plant. The best ever, no? Glad you enjoyed your trip!! xo
Mmm they all sound amazing, but I bet I’d love the creme brulee like Jeremy 🙂

I love their decor! A creme brulee doughnut sounds heavenly. Glad you had a great time in NY – it’s somewhere I would love to visit 🙂
Looks very good!

I guess in a way, my weekend was about business too! a new business idea that is 😉 Its hard when there are so many ideas filling my head, yet the creeping suspicion that they will never become realities… I guess adventure takes daring.
Thanks for the beautiful post <3

That looks like a nice place and I would like to taste so many different doughnts. Have a nice modany.

I live in Brooklyn, but will run over to Manhattan (literally) to get Doughnut Plant. So good. I think the creme brulee is best, but I’ll eat any of them!
Mmm, you’re making me drool this morning!
If ever you swing my Montreal, stop by Chez Boris. It doesn’t look like much, but they make the yummiest Russian doughnuts and to stave-off some of the guilt, it’s all organic!
Also, those glasses + bandanna <3!
Rose flavoured?! Amazing! xxx
These donuts look delicious!! Can’t wait to hear about those interesting new projects of yours 🙂
Every donut you each tried sounds delicious. I think I’d love the peanut butter one the most! I have a nut butter addiction. I love the donut touches in the store, like in the wall pillows – that’s adorable!
I really love that you love donuts (and you blog about them), this makes me happy!
Yummm! Those doughnuts look soooo gooood! We entertained on Saturday night. Thought we’d keep the meal really simple, and in the process stumbled upon some of the most delicious and easy dinner ideas xxx

Ohmmmuhgosh. That looks so yummy! You brought some back for the rest of us, right? 😉
Glad you got to visit Doughnut Plant! Sometimes it’s great to live in NYC.
Yummy…

I was just in New York over the weekend too! Where is that doughnut shop located?
Doughnuts!
Everytime I get to go to a bigger city I try to find a place with good doughnuts. Here I can just get them at McDonalds (eeem, no) and I prefer to find cute small cafeterias where to sit and just watch the movement of the city.
btw, I never tried to cook them by my own… I shall start checking for your recipes!
BR,
Ana
I had heard of this place through Naomi’s blog and thought it looked delicious 🙂 Great photos, makes me wanna drive down to NY and get some doughnuts!
