While Oktoberfest is cancelled this year in its usual capacity, Stan’s Donuts & Coffee is giving the people a way to continue celebrating the German holiday — with a twist. Stan’s ‘Chief Doughboy’, Rich Labriola, has created a pretzel donut.
Made with Stan’s yeast dough, the Stan’s Pretzel Donut is fried, soaked in a pretzel bath. Each pretzel donut is drizzled with Stan’s signature vanilla icing. Starting Sept. 19, in honor of the would-be start of Oktoberfest, the Stan’s Pretzel Donut will be available at all twelve Stan’s locations in Chicagoland.
“We’ve been working on this for a few years now, trying different variations to find the perfect balance between sweet and savory,” says Labriola. “As someone who has been baking and working with pretzels and donuts my entire life, I’m excited for our fans to sink their teeth into what I know is the ultimate pretzel donut.”
Other seasonal treats coming September 10 to complement the Stan’s Pretzel Donut will include the Pumpkin Old Fashioned Donut, Apple Cider Cake Donut, Fall Glazed Donut, and Apple Pie LeStan. Also coming in September: Stan’s private label cold brew growlers.
