Donut Prince is simply worth avoiding. The only circumstance where Donut Prince is the winner is in a contest versus Yum Yum Donuts, and even then the victory is narrow. Dana and I had heard form Burbank locals that this was the best donut at 3am. Perhaps this is true, but for the remaining 23 hours in the day this place serves fried rings of trash. So, here's what we got- Dana: one cinnamon donut roll and one original glazed. Me: one chocolate old-fashioned, and one sugar donut.
The verdict: The cinnamon donut roll tasted like a funnel cake from the fair and was about as easy on the stomach as one. The original glazed donut had a mysterious yellowish glaze that had notes of butterscotch-it was dense, sugary, and lacking basic raised donut flavor. The chocolate old-fashioned was nearly translucent due to the amount of over-frying that was happening, and strangely tasted like lemon. The sugar donut was the best of the bunch, but stripped down to the basic donut essence it still was void of fluffiness, flavor, and freshness. All the donuts hit the stomach like a bag of bricks.

Maybe the Donut Prince has seen better days, maybe he will change his ways... but for now, the Donut Prince is stuck in a quagmire of failure.

I love this blog. You need to advertise man, you could go big.
Gross.
This is my favorite blog.
Odd, I had the best buttermilk bar EVER there last week.
So sad to see someone so young bought out by "The Man." Clearly you have been hired to spread disinformation by the resurgent KK (only missing one more K...but who's counting) evil donut empire.
Are you kidding ! The Prince is the Donut King ! A little known fact to outsiders like yourself (aka loser) is that most of the the film/TV production in Burbank is fueled by Da Prince every AM.
Don't you ever 'dis da Prince again.
Don't listen to this slander. You gotta rock the buttermilk bars. Those shits are the TRUTH. No seriously though, this place is fantastic.
