If gourmet doughnuts are the next big sweet thing in Connecticut, a new bakery in Shelton is poised to rock the craze. Donut Crazy is serving a slew of cream-stuffed, candy-topped and sugar-glazed specialty doughnuts, turning the simple indulgence into exceptional treats.
The shop, in a small River Road plaza across from the Sports Center of Connecticut, has only been open for about five weeks. But thanks to word of mouth – and an increasing number of tagged Instagram posts from excited customers – doughnut lovers have been traveling from as far away as Danbury, Darien and Westport to try unique flavors like Nutella, red velvet and maple bacon.
Owner Jason Wojnarowski said the Shelton shop was built partially out of necessity. His family's original shop in Stratford, which sells coffee and sandwiches, was looking for a wholesale doughnut supplier. Not satisfied with his options, Wojnarowski decided he'd look into doing it himself. When the space became available in Shelton, he told his landlord he wanted to do "crazy doughnuts."
