The Salty Donut in Miami, Florida’s Wynwood art district is so good, we went twice in one weekend. The small batch shop makes its compotes, fillings, glazes, jams and of course, its doughs all in house. The Salty Donut serves up delicious fresh donuts (or doughnuts if you prefer to be all proper like) in rad flavors like guava + cheese (a 24 hour brioche donut with a guava and cream cheese filling, a cream cheese glaze and topped with crushed Maria cookie crumbs).

There are also freshly baked brown butter + salt, maple + bacon, strawberry + lemon, apple + dulce de leche, white chocolate tres leches, old fashioned chocolate cake and traditional glazed donuts. Cinnamon Toast Crunch cannoli were another ridiculous offering on the menu.

One of our favorite unique flavors is the Nutella donut at The Salty Donut. Served year round, the Nutella donut consists of a 24 hour raised brioche donut infused with a decadent Nutella filing covered with a rich cocoa glaze that is crowned with crushed hazelnuts.

Like an As Seen on TV commercial, but wait… there’s more. The Salty Donut doesn’t just have amazing donuts, it has insane coffee drinks as well. It turns out that co-owners Amanda Pizarro and Andy Rodriguez are just as obsessed with great coffee as they are with craft donuts. (As a side note, it’s worth stating that Pizarro is a fellow shoe fanatic. Kindred spirits? We think so.) Like many other local small businesses around the world, The Salty Donut was born out of frustration. As a South Florida (SoFla) native, Rodruiguez had become frustrated with the fact that, as he puts it, South Florida, “…is always one of the last major US cities to adopt new food trends and higher, more consistent food/coffee standards.” So, Rodriguez and his wife, Pizarro, decided to do something about the situation and, voila, The Salty Donut was brought to life.

We were lucky enough to swing by when the featured drink at The Salty Donut was a marvelous Vietnamese drop.

If you’re looking for more of a sure bet (specialty coffee drinks get rotated on the menu every month), the Cinnamon Toast Crunch latte is a regular on The Salty Donut’s menu . While it might be a bit too much of a good thing for everyday consumption, the Cinnamon Toast Crunch latte was a sweet vacay special occasion treat. It’s basically an espresso that’s combined with homemade Cinnamon Toast Crunch milk and you can get it served iced or hot.

The vibe at The Salty Donut is upscale, but cozy. Since the shop is located directly across from a school, we were pleased to bump into (very) enthusiastic school children who were chowing down on The Salty Donut’s delicious bite sized donut holes. It’s hard to stop at just one of The Salty Donut’s spiked donut holes, which come complete with flavor shots you can inject.
