Call it what you will; Fat Tuesday, Mardi Gras,”pancake day” (in France) or, as I knew it growing up; Fausnaught Day (aka Donut Day).

Although Fausnaught Day is today, and they aren’t open on Tuesdays, our very own West Chester Scoop has a delicious item available on their menu to help you celebrate later in the week. DONUTS! Delicious, can’t-stop-thinking-about-them donuts.

These made-to-order donuts are the best I’ve had the pleasure of tasting. They are made with an apple-cider batter, fried to perfection and topped to your liking.

Enjoy powdered sugar, cinnamon and sugar, vanilla glaze, chocolate glaze, honey or plain. Of course, you can add sprinkles and, for those who are feeling as adventurous as I was, request a “hole in one,” a hot, fresh donut topped with your favorite scoop of ice cream (I recommend the honey-bun ice cream on top of a cinnamon-sugar donut for a fabulously guilty breakfast).


West Chester Scoop also offers Bucks County Coffee in various flavors. Short: $1.64; Tall: $1.86; Grande: $1.96. You are missing out if you don’t stop by to try this delightful combo for yourself.

One donut: $.65
1/2 Dozen: $3.50
Dozen: $7.00

The Final Dish:

Don’t be greedy! Get a dozen or two of warm deliciousness for church, work, home or parties. You’ll be oh so popular!
