| - This place looks great, bright and shiny and tons of delicious looking doughnuts on display, sadly i wasn't all that impressed with he product, great presentation, they look fantastic, the topping/flavours looked great, BUT, the doughnut's themselves were simply standard, no flavour at all, decent texture, but again no flavour at all very bland, I guess they believe their toppings are so good you won't notice the sub par doughnut underneath. I tried the green tea which was nice, but was hoping the doughnut itself had some green tea in it too, but it was just the icing. The s'mores one looked good, but i found the chocolate glaze very thin, so thin you could actually see the colour of the doughnut under it, you could barely taste the gram cracker dust on top and the marshmallow was so flavourless that it was pointless to add to it, it really had zero flavour.. that was easily the most disappointing doughnut i had from Jelly, the last one was the coconut, the icing was good, not great, the coconut cream in the middle was pretty good, but again the doughnut under it was just boring and bland so it really lowered the level of this doughnut.
Jelly in my opinion is close to good, but falls very short of making these expensive doughnuts worth buying a second time. Jelly needs to make better doughnuts to make it worth it, they are just not worth the money. They have put all their effort into the icing and toppings and the presentation and zero effort into the doughnut itself... so if all you care about is the icing/toppings, then you will love this place, if you are looking for a good doughnut... take a pass on this place... i will
real gourmet doughnuts are 100% flavoured, this place just offers "gourmet" icings/toppings on top of a very bland doughnut.
save your money folks
