Donuts are the best, but superhero donuts are even better!! What a cool looking and delicious sounding treat to celebrate Captain Marvel. I can’t wait to see the movie – I’ve heard it’s amazing!
This looks like a really good donut recipe. The sprinkles you used are super cute. I love how you made the donuts two-toned. It gives me an idea to make orange and blue donuts with my daughter who loves the Florida Gators.
I agree with Marlynn that superhero donuts are the best! Love how fun and colorful your donut creations are. Captain Marvel is on my list, and I’m hoping to go watch it soon. I’ve heard such great things!
These are some great looking doughnuts!
