Formerly shuttered Deep Ellum sweets shop Glazed Donut Works has not reopened, not yet. But owner Darren Cameron is continuing to experiment in the kitchen, and he’s testing another batch of goodies ready for pick-up during a pop-up on Dec. 23.
Starting at noon Wednesday, Dec. 16, customers can pre-order Cameron’s doughnut bread pudding drizzled with butter-whiskey sauce. He’s also going to sell five flavors of ice cream, each based on a popular doughnut flavor.
Ice cream flavors, sold by the pint at Glazed Donut Works:
- red velvet with cream cheese
- blueberry mascarpone
- chocolate cold brew coffee
- maple bacon
- Jim Beam vanilla bean
Forget about your diet: Cameron says he wants to “help put a sweet ending to the year” with this pop-up sale.
Cameron closed Glazed Donut Works in 2018 while he dealt with some health issues, and at the time, it wasn’t clear if the 5-year-old shop would reemerge. But Cameron still has the lease at that same Deep Ellum address, and mid-pandemic, he started baking again.
In September, he reopened the shop temporarily, for the first time in two years, and sold boxes of doughnuts in popular flavors like hot glazed, crème brûlée, red velvet and chocolate cold brew. The famous doughnut grilled cheeses didn’t re-emerge yet.
For this latest pop-up, pans of doughnut bread pudding cost $25 and feed up to eight people. Pints of ice cream are $5 each. Order here.
Pre-orders run Dec. 16-20 and pick-up is Dec. 23 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Deep Ellum shop.
Glazed Donut Works is at 2644 Elm St., Dallas.
