DONUTS omg.

So recently I coughed up the 10 bucks for shipping to buy some stuff from Kinnikinnick (and what is up with their name, anyway?) foods, since their gluten free pizza crusts were so good. I got a box of cinnamon sugar donuts, a loaf of white sandwich bread, and a bag of Kinni-kwik bread and bun mix.

Oh my god, guys. I haven't had a donut in over a year. A year. ;_________; So good I cried manly tears. They're cake-style donuts, so they don't hit quite the same spot that your typical Krispy-Kreme or standard donut of choice will, but they are DONUTS, and they are delicious. I don't think they are quite worth the price for only 6 small donuts, but - but! Donuts. So yeah, those are highly recommended.

The white sandwich loaf was surprisingly tasty! Not perfect, it doesn't taste quite the same as a loaf of ordinary white bread, but it's good. The texture is great - very flexible, you can even fold a slice in half without it breaking. The flavor is good, though there is an ever-so-slightly off note. This note however is slight enough that pretty much anything you put on the bread covers it up. If you're looking for something similar to plain white loaf bread (I was), this is it. Unfortunately, no one in this whole town carries the stuff, or at least not that I can find. :( 10 bucks for shipping is simply too much to pay on any kind of regular basis.

The Kinni-kwik mix is also a success - we made a loaf of bread with it last night. It's similar to the prepackaged white sandwich loaf, but tastier (I mean, it would be, having been freshly made), and that off note I noticed is barely detectable here. It doesn't have quite as wonderful a flavor as the Pamela's bread mix, but it's also much, much easier. (You just mix together the baking mix and water/milk/liquid of your choice and bake.) It's more appropriate as a loaf bread, too, I think - like the white sandwich loaf, it's amazingly flexible for a gluten free bread, and it has that soft squishy white bread texture. Also, we rather over-cooked it, but it didn't dry out, and even the slightly burnt crust is still tasty. This one I'll probably be buying more of, since you can get it in bulk from Amazon.

Fffff I think their name is a play on Kinniki (Grease Mafioso accent?). I couldn't really tell you, but that's what I think of whenever I read it.

I had looked it up in the dictionary and it was like, some Native American smoking mixture with bearberry or something, and I was like, "Well that can't be it." Upon checking their company info, apparently it is. It, it's kind of ridiculous. I'm not sure why they thought that name would be a good idea, but I guess if you put that much effort into making gf products actually good, you have to be embarrassingly earnest, lol.
