Have you tried it?

Here's a pretty big honor, a USA Today readers poll has named Darling Donuts in Saratoga one of the ten best donut shops in the country. 

Known for their square donuts and unusual flavors, Darling ranked number 7 overall: 

With a rotating menu of flavors, Darling Doughnuts features quite an eclectic mix of handcrafted doughnuts. Think caramel stroopwafel, root beer float, and cafe mocha. Want to take it up a notch? Try a doughrogie, described as "a doughnut and a perogi met and had a gooey-filled baby." 

Natascha Pearl-Mansman and Glenn Severance opened the shop at 441 Broadway in 2020 offering flavors such as cookies and cream, churro, mango lemonade and root beer float. 

Darling Donuts is open Wednesday through Sunday from 8am until they sell out.
