Glazed and Infused doughnuts come to the suburbs
Glazed and Infused doughnuts, wildly popular at a handful of bakeries in Chicago, are making their way to the suburbs.
The doughnuts are being sold at all five Sunset Foods grocery stores in the North and Northwest suburbs. The store has locations in Libertyville, Long Grove, Highland Park, Lake Forest and Northbrook.
The doughnuts, ranging in price from $2 to $3, come in an array of popular flavors including red velvet, chocolate, maple bacon long johns, Boston cream, vanilla bean glazed and sprinkle.
The doughnuts are made fresh daily.
In addition, the Sunset Foods locations will exclusively be selling vanilla iced long johns, chocolate iced long johns and apple cider doughnuts.
The doughnuts, known for their innovative flavors and locally sourced natural ingredients, were featured this summer along with other doughnuts from across the country in People Magazine as "one of People's 100 reasons to love America."
There are five Glazed and Infused locations in Chicago.
The bakeries were established in 2012 by acclaimed chef and restaurateur Scott Harris, who co-founded Francesca's Restaurants. He has established himself as one of Chicago's most iconic restaurateurs, and the company continues to grow.
There are 20 Francesca's restaurants in the Chicago area as well as locations in Wisconsin, North Carolina and California. Harris has also created a number of other concepts, including Davanti Enoteca, a new contemporary cousin to Francesca's.
