About Old Fashioned Sugar Nutrition

The Old Fashioned Sugar donut offers a nostalgic crunch. Instead of a liquid glaze or fine powder, this cake donut is rolled in granulated sugar.

At 300 calories, the granulated sugar adds 16g of sugar total. The texture of the sugar grains against the dense cake makes this a favorite for those who love a bit of crunch.

Expert Insight: Granulated sugar doesn't soak into the dough as much as glaze, but the total sugar count is still significant. Track your macros on our Main Page.
