WHAT IS A FRENCH CRULLER?
Unlike a traditional donut, crullers are made differently and are made to be much lighter in texture and consistency. From the crispy outside to the chewy soft insides, these donuts are so airy you can easily eat a few in one sitting without regrets. Made similarly to the dough used in cream puffs, but fried to perfection, these donuts are unlike any other.
