Fractured Prune

I havent been to the shop but someone brought my workplace these donuts and WOW! the toppings are great and even the donut itself without anything on it would be delicious. I heard about all the different things you can put on and can’t wait to go there.

Interesting concept. It seems like everyone is following the Subway model of ordering. I have been here a few time, and know they have a solid product. You write your selection on a pre printed paper, hand it to the counter person, and two minutes later you receive your toppings on a donut no more than 10 minutes old. The donuts are too fresh to eat by hand. Gooey, sloppy, soft, full of topping in the most decadent way, a fork and knife are needed.
Four donuts and a cup of coffee cost $ 12 dollars.
On a final note, upon entering the store, you are immediately met with a sewer order. This is likely a city issue but still very off putting. I have been here numerous times and never had this issue before, hence no deduction in Unilocal stars.

Ah the FP! Ever wanted a custom made cake donut? Well now you can! There are a plethora of glazes and toppings to choose from, and you can make your own or go with some of the suggested flavor combinations on the menu.
Each donut is $ 1.89 with discounts for a dozen. You can also get a plain cake donut but it will also be $ 1.89. The donuts are fried on the spot so you are getting quality freshness.
I decided on a coffee cake, lemonade, key lime pie, and banana cream pie. I also got 2 plain cake. The donuts had a lovely light crispness around the edges to contrast with the soft moist cake inside. Overall I enjoyed them but they did taste a little more oily than donuts I’ve had at other donut shops.
Service was excellent.
I love the concept and while it’s a little pricey (About the same price as a croissant donut) if you want a custom created donut this is the place to be.

Take them to go if you must, but dig in and enjoy ASAP ’cause these things come out tasty, hot, crisp, and decadent. Like fair donuts without all the other yucky smells surrounding you. I describe this place as Design-​Your-​Own-​Donut to people because you can choose your own glaze (and there are dozens of choices) and toppings. But mostly these are just awesome because they come out fresh, hot and soooo tasty.

We’ll start with the good. The flavor & topping combos are unique and essentially endless with the create your own options. The doughnuts are not produced en masse, but in very small batches, so they’re super fresh, and you can watch the entire process from a large window. We tried 3 doughnuts to share: Banana Cream Pie, Key Lime, and a create your own with mocha glaze and bacon topping.
The best thing Fractured Prune has going for it is the novelty factor. The customization/​build your own trend in food is huge, and this place caters perfectly to that, especially for kiddos.
Now, the negative. There’s only 1 type of doughnut, vanilla cake style. No chocolate, no nothing else. You have to really be in the mood for THIS doughnut. The toppings and glazes are all pretty intense (even «Plain Jane»), so this strikes me as more of a treat than breakfast.
They are SO fresh that the glaze is really runt and messy initially, and the doughnut doesn’t seem dense enough to stand up to its toppings. Interestingly, trying the 2^nd halves 2 hours later, they were MUCH better!
Finally, they’re a little over $ 2 a piece, which is pricey for doughnuts. Granted, still not a lot of $, but double most everywhere else.
Overall, we thought the donuts were just okay. We absolutely love BoSa, and this is just a different type of place. A great alternative to ice cream night or a fun treat for your kids though, for sure!

Q: What do you see when the Pillsbury Dough Boy bends over?
A: Doughnuts.
Gosh. How crude.
;)
Anywho, so Fractured Prune is the beloved make-​your-​own doughnut place where they fry up the doughnut right before your eyes and glaze it with what you want and top it with whatever you want as well! If you’re lazy like me, you can get one of those pre-​made and equally delicious combos. We got the Morning Buzz Morning Buzz (mocha glaze & Oreo) and the Salted Caramel (caramel glaze & sea salt) to share. I will admit that the Morning Buzz was ridiculously better than the Salted Caramel only because the Salted Caramel was tooth-​rottingly sweet whereas that mocha glaze on the Morning Buzz was like heaven. Mmm!
The doughnut itself is pretty light but compared to eating a couple of croissant doughnuts the day before, I felt they were a little heavy. Not a bad thing but I think croissant doughnuts have spoiled me. Not a hater though, I’d totally stop in to Fractured Prune again if I were in the area, You just can’t beat a freshly fried doughnut!

Amazing. Absolutely amazing. Hot donuts, wonderful glazes, and outrageous toppings. Basically everything you ever wanted. Definitely the best donuts I have ever had in my life.

Pretty good donut place. I am personally a Bosa guy, but these were pretty good. It is a designer donut with many flavor options to choose from. The donut itself has a very fried taste. The toppings were good. It’s not an everyday donut, but it’s not bad. Give it a try. Fun date idea for those on a budget.

Let me start with saying… The night staff on 1 – 8 was
. They were so nice and patient when we walked in at literally 5 mins to close. I could not appreciate that more. They accommodated our group of savage men who were out busting criminals all night… they helped save the city that night…
These donuts are fancy… and delicious. Salted carmel was so good. Again, these are fancy donuts, so you will pay $ 5 for 2 donuts, and upwards of $ 15 for a dozen. This is more of a specialty doughnut shop.

This is the only place you can find freshly made old fashioned donuts, while you watch and wait! The people working there are really cool and willing to explain all the different flavors and toppings. My personal fav is the Blackberry donuts.
I recently took the GF there to try it out, and she was overwhelmed to the point of panic, looking over all of the selections!
An order of 3 different flavors and one bite and now, she’s hooked!

Was not as impressed as everyone else. Yes you can get the toppings you want but it is the same cake donut for everything. Warm donuts immediately eaten were decent but not worth the price. I will go back to Krispy Kreme or Bosa for unique donuts.

Great place! Fun atmosphere, great toppings and donuts were moist and delish! Had the bacon bomb! Maple glaze was great! Will come back!

Ever since I saw a place in California that does fancy donuts, I’ve been craving for one. I didn’t want to wait until a cali trip to go get one either, so I Unilocaled donuts just to see what was around.
Last week is when I came across this place and have been wanting to go ever since. Well today was the day thanks to national coffee day. I went to dutch Bros and got me a coffee and then headed with some friends to go try out this place. It was amazing! Staff is cheerful and helpful. Customers ask each other what they’re getting and, like us newbies, they help you out. One lady named several that she gets for a group of people and shes like «you can’t go wrong. They’re all good!». And boy was she right… I have donuts every once in a while. Maybe 2 times a year or 3. I love the fact that they are cake donuts and that I can put whatever I want on it vs just sprinkles at a local donut shop.
Honestly because of the fact that you can put whatever you want on them, the price is not bad. I will definitely be returning when I have a donut craving.

As weird as it sounds, Fractured Prune has restored my faith in good donuts. I really liked the concept of being able to pick how you want your donut topped and was really happy that the execution was spot on. I stopped in with a craving for something chocolate-​y so I went with the donut dipped in chocolate & topped with chocolate sprinkles. As much as I liked the chocolate, I actually was a huge fan of just the donut itself!
They have happy hour in the afternoon which I missed out on (didn’t read the sign quick enough & wasn’t allowed to add donuts after paying for the one). For $ 5, you get any 3 donuts; I’d be interested in going back to try other ones!

I am a true fatty. Got 6 donuts and ate 4 on the spot. although I now regret this gluttony, I didn’t while devouring it. I would do it again if I had the chance, which I will.
The donuts are like cake not chewy. Which is awesome actually cause you can share the flavors with your date or whoever you want to share it with. Or you can just eat it all by yourself. ;)
You can’t go wrong with any flavors. It’s all really good. I don’t know what else to say, I’m just speechless by this place. Mind=blown

I was so excited to try The Prune as my friends had raved about it and I left, 25 min later with 2 donuts and the urge to never go back. I was intrigued by the made to order donut concept especially the hot out of fryer part.
Part of the 25 min was our fault, we decided to go on National Donut day which they had a special, buy a drink and get a free donut. The place was packed, close to 30 – 40 people in the tiny space, most of which were standing in a line that never moved. We somehow got to the front of the line, ordered our donuts and moved to the back of the store to wait on our 2, made to order donuts. Even though the place was packed, the staff there seemed to have no sense of urgency to complete orders. Since the line wasn’t moving, they weren’t overwhelmed with orders but no one really seemed to be making donuts. There were 5 people working and 2 donut making stations set up but only one person at a time actually made the donuts and that was after they stared at the order form for a minute.
After the long wait, we finally got our donuts and left. The donuts themselves were just ok, I’ve had better from a gas station (Casey’s Donuts, if you are from the Midwest you know what I am talking about) and the whole experience was just not that great. I’ll stick to my local Bosa

I don’t get it. It sounds like it would be a great place with custom donuts, but I thought they tasted terrible. My mom and I tried four different donuts. The blueberry, the salted caramel, the cherry with chocolate chips, and maple.
I liked that they were warm, but they were so greasy and they left a weird burnt taste in your mouth. I didn’t like them at all and neither did my mom. The blueberry tasted so artificial. We ate a little of each doughnut and ended up throwing the rest away.
We ordered the donuts to go. The staff seemed friendly. I didn’t like the vibe of the place. It seemed a little dirty, and felt kind of depressing. I appreciate what they’re trying to do, but like I said I just don’t get it. I don’t know why this place is so highly rated. I prefer the type of donuts you get at Bosa. These donuts are just over-​the-​top too much in my opinion. Not my cup of tea.

As I write this a part me is dying inside because it’s going to be too long before I have these amazing doughnuts again. Ordered a half dozen and immediately regretted not ordering more so I went back for another 12 the next day.
The cake doughnut in itself is ridiculously good; made to order so they’re hot and crispy, like a perfect funnel cake.
I cannot rave about this place enough. For being made to order, with your custom toppings, they were done in a timely manner (about 10 min. tops) and their staff is SO friendly every day. The owner obviously takes pride in his doughnuts as I was listening to him train a new employee.
I highly suggest the mint glaze with crushed Oreo toppings and the blueberry with powdered sugar.

I love this donut shop! There’s a reason they have been expanding like crazy… their donuts are crazy-​good. The process is fascinating to watch: the donuts drop into hot oil and cook right in front of you. Then they are dipped in glazes and topping that you customized. It doesn’t get any fresher than this. Their «cake» donut is really unlike any other you’ve ever had… a lighter, fluffier, moister version that strikes me what a donut would be like, texturewise, if a cake donut and a raised donut had a baby.
Of the bajillion flavor combinations that you can create, I have settled on some of my favorites. Cookies ‘n cream, fer shure. The S’mores donut with graham cracker crumbs, mini chocolate chips and marshmellow glaze is pretty amazing. But I was taken aback by how much I dug the Ms. Prunella donut — berry glaze and cinnamon sugar. Astonishingly good! I made a special trip to stop by here before work on my birthday, so that I could share my love of Fractured Prune with my co-​workers. They were hooked as soon as they dug into them! I had tempted them earlier in the week by showing them the website and describing the hot-​dipped process that is the unique signature of Fractured Prune. When I mentioned it was my birthday, my donut preparers were awesome… they asked me what I wanted on my (extra) birthday donut. At their suggestion, I tried the Apple Pie donut… delicious!
I tried to get a good variety of donuts in my dozen, which included a maple and bacon-​topped donut. I was told that the maple + cinnamon sugar with added bacon was the way to go… they call it their ‘bacon bomb”. But alas, when I drove my dozen to work and did the big reveal… they had neglected to «add bacon» to the maple donuts. This was almost enough to ding them a star, but I couldn’t do it. They’re that good…

Let me start by saying I LOVE DONUTS!!! I had heard of this place for awhile but I was finally in the area and got to try it. I loves the whole idea of creating your own donut. These are definitely not your typical donuts and since they make them as you order they are always fresh!
We created our own donuts; mint glaze with vanilla wafers, strawberry glaze with mini marshmallows, and peach glaze with cinnamon sugar.
We also bought a dozen of thier features donuts to take home. Definitely try strawberry shortcake & blueberry hill.
A must try spot!
