Marina's Menu: DUCK DONUTS in Green Brook NJ

Duck Donuts has a new location in New Jersey at the Green Brook Shopping Center on Route 22 West. Area residents are flocking (pardon the pun) to savor their warm delicious donuts that are made to order. Donut lovers and many more will love this new shop and the concept behind it.

The first Duck Donuts was opened on the Outer Banks in North Carolina by the company's Founder, Russel A. DiGilio. Now, there are franchised spots that dot the East Coast and Southeastern United States as well as shops in Ohio and Tennessee. All of them specialize in creating the scrumptious donuts that have made them famous.

We stopped by the Green Brook location early on a Sunday morning. The shop was humming with customers customizing their vanilla cake donuts. There's a convenient order form so that guests can take some time to create a unique treat. The efficient and friendly Green Brook team makes the tasty donuts happen.

You can start with a coating like powdered sugar, chocolate icing, peanut butter icing or glaze and add toppings that include shredded coconut, sprinkles, or bacon pieces. Finish it off with a drizzle like salted caramel, raspberry or hot fudge. We enjoyed one with maple icing and bacon bits and one with chocolate icing and salted caramel drizzle.

We like that there are endless combinations that will make you want to return again and again. You can take donuts home or relax in the shop's spacious seating area. There's a nice selection of premium coffee available to enjoy with your donut creation.

A little nutritional information: Each donut is about 210 calories without the toppings. The vanilla cake donuts are fried in a soy-based shortening and contain the key ingredients of wheat and corn flour, soybean oil, non-fat dry milk, egg yolks and beta carotene.

Duck Donuts fans will like the fun line of gift items available like tee-shirts, coffee mugs and rubber duckies. Find out what the buzz is all about and stop by the recently opened Duck Donuts in Green Brook. Their donuts are ideal as a breakfast favorite or anytime snack.
