I don’t know how I never discovered this before, but quite honestly, this is the greatest discovery after gold and penicillin. The Fractured Prune is an amazing company that specializes in donuts.

Each donut can be created specifically for your tastes, and there is a ton of [different toppings and sauces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/summer-donut) to choose from (like [lemonade and french toast](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iced-strawberry-lemon-loaf)). Plus the Fractured Prune has a load of different [specialty donuts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/parlor-doughnuts-savory-doughnuts) that you can pick up on your way to the office, or just to eat on your own.
