The latest from the sweet world of FROST.
We are excited to have won the 2011 Excellence Award for Achievement in Packaging from the Paperboard Packaging Council for our fabulous doughnut box design! We are honored to have been recognized for this award alongside several National and even International brands.
Sweets seem to come in and out of vogue like the latest fashions. Early this year, I wrote a piece on pie, stating: “If doughnuts were the new cookies, and cupcakes the new doughnuts, then pie is the new cupcake.” It now looks like doughnuts are still, well … evolving.
Last week, Seattle Met’s panel of tasters frittered away an afternoon sampling fritters, maple bars, old fashioneds, and new-fashioned flavors from eight bakeries—including big-name chains, mom and pops, and a few up-and-comers. Each bakery submitted the two varieties (well, one cheated and brought three) that best represented its style.
Sterling is one of the shop's three owners, and the mastermind behind several of Frost's oh-my-gosh-inspiring confections. Think banana split fritters. Think smoked bacon maple bars.Sterling, along with longtime friends Paul Goetz and Del Hernandez, opened the shop on a Friday in July.
It is with great honor and admiration that we present to you the Best of 425 winners. Congratulations to all who made this prestigious list.
Get a load of the Smokey Bacon Maple Bar at Frost Doughnuts. Mmm, yummy bacon. We get these on occasion at Uber but it's way too good to have it all the time.
