Donuts || Portland locals' favorite donuts (of course it's not voodoo donuts) My favorite is Cointreau Crème Brûlée - "Our signature brioche shell is filled with thick vanilla custard, and then torch-fired by hand to create that crisp, smoky candy shell. A pipette is filled with Cointreau (orange liqueur), which adds a sweet citrus balance when squeezed into the donut."
