Ohio’s own Donut Trail

August 15, 2018 by Ashley T

My husband and I were hosted by the Butler County Visitors Bureau. All opinions are my own.

My family loves donuts just as much as so many other people do as well. There are always donut shops around here that we go to every once in a while but who doesn’t like to try donuts from other places? A road trip to a donut trail is the perfect getaway for some yummy donuts!

Butler County Donut Trail

What is the Butler County Donut Trail?

The Butler County Donut Trail is located in Butler County, Ohio. All you have to do is follow the trail markers to find 12 delicious donut shops. Every shop has their own special donuts so you’ll have to take the time to visit each one. If you take one of the passports to each location as you visit, you get a surprise: an exclusive Butler County Donut Trail T-shirt. These t-shirts change every year so this is something you can do with your family every year.

Butler County Donut Trail
While we were in Butler County a couple weeks ago, we visited 4 of the donut trail locations.

Mimi’s Donuts

Mimi’s Donuts and bakery is the first location we visited. I LOVE apple fritters and after seeing another blogger with a huge one from Mimi’s, I made sure we got one. It is literally as big as your face.

Donut Trail
The key to traveling the donut trail is to arrive early. They still had a bunch of donuts (I’m not sure if there were any in the back) but once they are gone, they close. We ordered some iced coffee and an apple fritter. Both were delicious and I’m craving more.

Kelly’s Bakery

Everyone sells basic donuts for the donut lover who just likes regular glazed donuts or chocolate cake donuts. But Kelly’s Bakery makes a delicious S’mores donut. That one was mine. We got the last one (which I kind of felt bad for) but it was yummy.

Donut Trail
Paul claimed the cherry donut and loved it. I was also eyeing the cinnamon roll and turnovers they had. I mean, it all looks so delicious. Do you see your favorite donut here in the case?

Ross Bakery

I have to say that the ladies working at Ross Bakery were the friendliest people we met all weekend. She was very jealous that we had the 2018 Donut Trail t-shirts. I think each location should get the new shirt every year!

Donut Trail
She picked out donuts for us but also warmed up cinnamon sugar donut hole with cream cheese icing and let us try them. They are amazing! I also noticed a pineapple fritter that would have left with me if it wasn’t for the fact that I already had a ton of donuts.

Holtman’s Donut Shop

Holtman’s Donut shop was the busiest donut shop by far. The line was at the door when we walked in. I loved how you could see the donuts being made while you waited. And just because they were busy, doesn’t mean they weren’t efficient. We didn’t wait super long and loved being able to see everything they offered while you waited.

Donut Trail
They had soooo many donuts! I’m betting they keep up with demand since there are people there to continue to make donuts during the day. And so many donuts to choose from. Check it out!

Donut Trail
You can find the Donut Trail location of Holtman’s Donut shop:
Holtman Donuts
9558 Civic Centre Blvd,
West Chester, OH 45069

Can’t wait to make it back to Butler County to get more donuts from the donut trail! If you plan on completing the passport in one day, here are 2 tips:

Tip: Do your research first. Not all shops are open everyday.

Tip 2: Start early. Many shops close when they run out of donuts which could be hours before posting closing time.

Enjoy your donuts!

Paul said I created a fire hazard on my #bulletjou Paul said I created a fire hazard on my #bulletjournal “Books read in 2021” page. But it came out better than I thought it would. 

My soft goal for 2021 is 30 books which I’m pretty sure I can make. My hard goal is 45. Once school ends, I’ll have more time to read and make it through the list I’ve built up. Can’t wait!

I always make it a point to read a certain amount I always make it a point to read a certain amount of books each year but the last 2 or so years, I just haven’t read that many. So, I’m writing down books I plan on reading in 2021 and making sure I follow though. 

Anyone else have an amount of books they want to read in 2021? I’ll have a follow up post with the spread for my “books read in 2021”.

I never shared my #november2020 spread... mainly b I never shared my #november2020 spread... mainly because I never really finished it. I’ve been so busy that I had to do each week as it started which made me lazy. 

However, with thanksgiving giving me a much needed break from work and school, I hopped on to make the last month of the year.

I have to admit that I’m extremely excited to work on my 2021 #bulletjournal  because I’ll be started in a new book and will have plenty of time to figure out how I want the beginning to look. Be sure to lookout for it!
