The Donuts
Crème Brûlée Donut
One of the highlights of my visit was the Crème Brûlée donut. Often, this type of donut can be overly sweet or heavy, but Amsterdonuts has managed to strike the perfect balance. The custard filling inside was creamy and rich without being cloying, and the caramelized sugar topping provided a delightful crunch. The texture of the donut was spot-on, with a perfectly crisp exterior and a soft, fluffy interior. This sophisticated take on a donut is ideal for those who appreciate a more refined flavor profile, offering a taste experience that feels both indulgent and elegant.sophisticated take on a donut, ideal for those who appreciate a more refined flavor profile.
Milk Chocolate Pistachio Donut
Next, I tried the Milk Chocolate Pistachio donut. I have to admit, I’m usually not a fan of pistachio-flavored sweets because they often taste artificial and overly sweet. However, Amsterdonuts has managed to capture the true, nutty essence of pistachios in their filling. The combination of genuine pistachio flavor with smooth milk chocolate was simply divine. The pistachio was fresh and authentic, providing a rich, nutty flavor that complemented the creamy milk chocolate perfectly. It’s one of the few places where the pistachio flavor tastes true to its nutty roots, making it a standout choice for pistachio enthusiasts.

Amsterdonuts has definitely earned a spot as my new go-to donut shop. Their commitment to quality ingredients and balanced flavors sets them apart from the rest. Each donut is crafted with care, reflecting their dedication to both flavor and texture. Whether you’re a local resident or just visiting Amsterdam, make sure to stop by and treat yourself to their exceptional donuts.
