[Desert Donuts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/desert-dust) recently unveiled new ownership, a new look and a [build-your-own donut menu](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/build-your-own-ramen) that promises to draw in new and old customers at its grand reopening. Thanks to its fresh, made-to-order approach, Desert Donuts ensures that customers always get warm, sweet treats every time that can be customized to their liking with a variety of toppings and glazes.

"What makes us different from a typical donut shop is our customers always get to bite into warm donuts every time," says Michael Gallegos, "With fresh donuts that usually take less than four minutes to receive after each order, it is truly a unique donut experience."

As well as being able to enjoy customizable donuts, customers can also treat themselves to [floats, shakes, malts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ice-creaminspired-frozen-coffees) and more.
