The Russell Orchards Bakery has a reputation for quality, wholesomeness, and innovation that we proudly uphold and strive to keep at the forefront of our vision. Without a doubt we are best known for our outstanding cider donuts. Made fresh throughout the day, these crispy little gems have been praised, photographed, adored, written up in countless magazines and newspapers, and sent the world over. Now that we live in a world of tiks, toks, tweets and likes, our donuts are shared by even more followers. The wonderful and unique thing about our cider donuts is that they are still made from scratch using a recipe* that was invented and perfected in our very own farm kitchen. Not only is it rare to find a cider donut made from scratch these days but ours get their incredible rich appley flavor from the cider that is pressed here in our cider mill from the apples grown right in the orchard. Our bakery is situated inside our farm store and people delight in watching the donuts being made right before their eyes. From a special viewing platform, even little guys can witness the donuts as they drop into the fryer, flip and bob their way down to the end of the conveyor. Generations have grown up with the cider donut as a very important part of their childhood, so much so that the first place they want to visit when they return from college is often the orchard - to get a donut!
*No dairy, nuts, or peanut products in the donuts.
