Study Names Indiana’s Favorite Donut – Do You Agree?

If you’re someone who has ever walked into a donut shop and felt that moment of pure happiness when you spot your favorite pastry behind the glass, you’re in the right place. Today, we’re taking a sugar-coated look at donut love across America - and most importantly, what donut Indiana loves the most. Spoiler alert: Hoosiers know what’s good.

Indiana’s Sweet Choice: Chocolate Glazed Takes the Crown

Across the country, flavors vary just as much as accents and skyline views. Some folks swear by jelly-filled. Others are all about powdered sugar - you know, the kind that leaves your shirt looking like you lost a fight with a bag of flour. But here in Indiana? We’ve made our choice loud and clear. The Hoosier state's donut of choice is the Chocolate Glazed donut.

There’s just something about a warm, soft donut dipped in silky chocolate glaze that hits the spot, whether you're grabbing breakfast on the run, treating the office, or enjoying a Saturday morning stop with the family. It’s sweet but not too sweet, classic but still exciting, and just messy enough to feel fun. It’s basically the donut equivalent of a hug.

How Indiana’s Favorite Compares to the Rest of the U.S.

While glazed donuts topped the Google Trends charts in the most states overall, chocolate glazed stood out proudly in Indiana and a few other donut-loving places across the U.S. Because let’s be real - if you can take a perfect donut and then add chocolate to it, why wouldn’t you?

Donut chains have their own loyal fan bases, too. Krispy Kreme lovers worship that “Hot Now” sign like it’s a beacon of joy. Dunkin’ fans? They’re ride-or-die. And yes, the debate continues - but no matter where you stand, we can all agree that a chocolate-glazed donut has never done us wrong.
