Designer Doughnuts the Bay Area Way

If San Francisco was gonna get in on the fancy doughnut trend, you knew they had to do it with an organic, local, healthy twist.

OK fine, maybe it's impossible to make doughnuts healthy, but new-ish Bay Area sweets purveyor Dee's Mini Organic Doughnuts does a pretty good job. Their fresh cake doughnuts leave out all the high fructose corn syrup and sodium this-and-that present in your typical store-bought-varieties, and instead use high-end ingredients like organic cacao powder and local Meyer lemons. Plus, they're tiny – how bad for you can they be!

Dee's doesn't have its own store yet, but their hand-dipped chocolate-orange and maple-crunch deliciousness is worth seeking out if you're in the Bay Area – they're now sold at more than a dozen spots, including two of our favorites – Caffe Amici near Union Square and Dish Café at the SF Film Institute.
