What happened to the donuts? They used to be so fat and fluffy and fit in the box now theyre all loose and skinny and the texture is gone. Its sad.

I haven't tasted Entenmann's cakes for quite a number of years but there was a half price sale at ShopRite so I tried a package of their crumb covered donuts. They are completely disgusting.

Horrible fake tasting cakes that will make you nauseous. They taste so bad that I would be embarrassed to even give them away.

Gross bought some pumpkin donuts and they are really gummy, cake donuts aren't supposed to be this moist, every donut I get from my Marc's store have a chewiness to them, cake donuts are supposed to be somewhat dry, they def aren't supposed to have a gummy texture, they are so gummy you can roll into a ball and they are all stuck together, it's like they are getting to hot in the shipping process, making turn gummy.

Definitely not your donut like in the 70-80s. I picked up a box of 8 frosted donuts for $6.59 and was disappointed. Flat and hole in middle was always the best part with a crunch.less. Now a huge gap size of a quarter. The chocolate is now waxy and tastes cheap.

Product Size Refuced

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Recently, I purchased 2 boxes of your doughnuts at Albertson. Imagine my surprise when I noticed the size of the doughnuts were greatly reduced to what appeared to be 1/2 of their former size. with no corresponding reduction in price. Although I not plan to patronize this dishonest company again, I do plan to vocalize my complaint on as many online platforms as I can locate!

Stuck together

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
I contacted the company because 3 times I bought the chocolate with yellow cake donuts and they were stuck together. They were a crumbled mess to try and separate. This was so odd as I had just been in a different state where they had these donuts and there was no issue with them being stuck together. The company sent coupons and also thanked me for letting them know. I figured the issue was the delivery truck storage or temperature. I took a leap and used the coupon to buy more yesterday from Walmart. Yay! Not stuck together!!!

User's recommendation: Be sure the donuts look shiny and not dull. Seems if they are dull you can bet they are going to be stuck together.

Entenmanns should not of discontinued the walnut ring cake! One of your best products

Why did Entemenns discontinue the walnut ring?? That was a product that I grew up on. Matter fact, the pecan ring was a favor of mine.

Product Very Different

The chocolate rich frosted donuts are terrible. I have recently bought them at four separate stores and they are all the same, stuck together and a weird taste. This is not the donut that I have had for years. I won't be getting them again unless they go back to the original recipe.

Might get your money back and a few coupons for more product of the same ilk. But forget about any other sort of settlement etc. ; no harm, no foul.

The price for a box of donuts is ridiculous for what you're getting. The donuts aren't even good anymore. Especially at the price that they're charging now absolutely ridiculous won't buy them ever ag

Your donuts have gone downhill and your price has gone over the top. I know the price of things have gone up but your donuts just aren't worth the huge amount of money you charge now!

Entenmann's is no more

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

For those who think Entenmann's still exists I have news for you. The name still exists but that is all.

NOTHING of the cakes, donuts, cookies, pastries, etc. are Entenmann's and have not been for a long time now. Read the list of ingredients if you can pronounce them all. Artificial, chemicals, preservatives, etc.

And the taste is no more. Even their chocolate chip cookies are smaller and don't taste anything like they used to taste years ago when they were delicious. I know Entenmann's. I have relatives that worked at the Bayshore L.I.

Plant for generations. Their products are just the bottom of the barrel unhealthy and toxic facsimiles of real food that will be bad for your health over time. Stay away. Go to a mom&pop bakery instead.

Or bake yourself. Your body deserves better.
