Just don't get it from T&T bakery, their cakes are horrible now for some reason. Used to be decent.

You can try Saint Germain. It's pretty decent. There's one in Metrotown. Yeah T&T cakes aren't the greatest.

Yan Bakery on East Hastings. Go in person. Friendly owners. Ask for Helen (owner.) Top notch HK style cakes. Bring cash. Don't insult your family.

Seems like a hit or miss. Saint Germain went down in quality, while T&T@Olympic Oval was acceptable.

I tried rinsing the doughnut in water but i wanted to throw up after eating that soggy mess. |
Yo that's hilarious, I legit was searching a week ago if Krispy Kreme made a less icing covered version of their glazed donut
They don't, but wtf that's funny

its true though. that shit is sweet as all hell and gonna put me in a diabetic coma. So i was successfully able to use a butter knife and scrape off some of the glaze and it taste SO MUCH BETTER.
I hear stories that if you go when they have that "hot doughnut" sign on, you can ask for doughnuts that arent glazed. then you just go home and add some jam or whatever to it yourself. MUST TRY NEXT TIME.
p.s. i still self failed myself for it. kinda lame

When they are making it, you can ask them to pull one off the line before it gets glazed, they'll do it.

If you don't mind heading a bit further down the hwy1, the Taster's Bakery just across Port Mann is always great.
So much so that we'd buy one from time to time to eat it without needing to be a birthday or anything like that.

Yan's will be fine. We had our wedding cake done there, and people kept asking us where it was from.
Also, I think they can do a durian sponge cake too.

Haha yeah I haven't had a hard doughnut before.
Go try the sourdoughnut at luckys. Best doughnut I've ever had. Glazed, but not too heavy and has the sourdough tang. Fluffy as a cloud.

It's gonna suck. Everyone is gonna hate you. LOL! 
Just kidding. Similar to Mikoyan. Got our wedding cake there. I wasn't a believer of everyone saying the cake there is good. I'm a believer now.

I havent tried this new bakery, but when i go visit me ole mum, ill go buy a cake from there and try it.

Appreciate the suggestion, since you're in the restaurant Bizz, i trust your recommendations (the wife's asking if you know a place that does red velvet cream cheese frosting cupcakes that doesnt taste like a bag of dicks)
