I tried all the doughnuts I could find at Dunkin' and ranked them from worst to best

I tried 16 different doughnuts from Dunkin'.
  • I tried all the doughnuts I could find at Dunkin' and ranked them from worst to best.
  • The glazed-blueberry doughnut was my least favorite because I thought it tasted artificial.
  • The old-fashioned, glazed, and glazed-chocolate doughnuts were among my favorites.

Dunkin' may have dropped the word "Donuts" from its brand name in 2019, but the chain still serves up plenty of its signature items at over 13,000 stores worldwide.

Founded in 1950 in Quincy, Massachusetts, and now owned by Inspire Brands — which also owns Arby's, Sonic, and Baskin-Robbins, among others — Dunkin' has expanded its menu over the years to add a broad variety of sandwiches, pastries, and snacks.

I've had plenty of Dunkin' doughnuts before, but I typically choose my flavors based on whatever I'm in the mood for when I walk into the shop.

I wanted to find out which Dunkin' doughnut I liked best of all, so I visited a local shop in Queens and asked for one of every type they had.

I tried 16 different flavors and ranked them from worst to first. Here's what I thought of the doughnuts I tried.

The glazed-blueberry doughnut was my least favorite.
I thought the blueberry flavor tasted artificial.

This one surprised me because I've had Dunkin's glazed-blueberry doughnut before. But compared to the other doughnuts I tried, this variety was my least favorite.

The blueberry flavor felt far removed from the taste of actual blueberries — like something artificially flavored to mimic the taste of blueberry Hostess mini muffins.

There was also an unpleasant aftertaste I didn't get from any of the other doughnuts.

Dunkin's apple-crumb doughnut was too sweet for me.
The filling reminded me of a fast-food apple pie.

Between the vanilla icing, crumbs, and gooey apple filling, Dunkin's apple-crumb doughnut was too sweet for me. I also thought the filling was reminiscent of an apple pie from a fast-food restaurant.

I liked the texture of the crumb topping, but the thick layer of icing made this doughnut very sweet.

I thought the vanilla-creme doughnut tasted like a powdered Twinkie.
I probably wouldn't eat the vanilla-creme doughnut with my morning coffee.

Dunkin's vanilla-creme doughnut is covered with powdered sugar and filled with vanilla cream.

While the filling keeps the doughnut pleasantly moist, the taste and consistency of the filling made it taste more like a powdered Twinkie than something I might want with my coffee at breakfast.

Of the three frosted doughnuts with sprinkles, the strawberry version was my least favorite.
Dunkin' had three variations of frosted doughnuts with sprinkles.

The three frosted, sprinkled options I tried — strawberry, vanilla, and chocolate — are bunched together in my ranking because they're otherwise identical: soft, puffy doughnuts with colored sprinkles on the frosting.

The strawberry-frosted version was my family's least favorite of the group. Even my 4-year-old, who typically loves everything that's pink and sprinkled, preferred the other frostings.

The vanilla-frosted doughnut with sprinkles was a little boring.
I didn't think the frosting on this doughnut tasted like vanilla.

Although billed as a vanilla-frosted doughnut, I couldn't make out even a hint of vanilla flavor.

However, this doesn't mean it's bad — it's still a doughnut — but it's a bit boring and very sweet. My kids were also unimpressed with the sparseness of the sprinkles.

My favorite frosted doughnut with sprinkles was the chocolate version.
The chocolate frosting is made with actual cocoa.

My favorite of the frosted trio, Dunkin's chocolate-frosted doughnut with sprinkles, has actual cocoa in the frosting, giving it a far more distinctive flavor than the other two variations.

Since Dunkin's doughnuts are pretty sweet, I usually found the frosting to be unnecessary. However, the chocolate-frosted doughnuts were an exception — and I don't especially love chocolate.

Dunkin's limited-edition s'mores doughnut was just OK.
I didn't think the graham-cracker crumbs added much flavor.

Dunkin's s'mores doughnut is a limited-edition flavor topped with chocolate frosting and graham-cracker crumbs.

It's filled with a toasted-marshmallow-flavored filling that I thought looked and tasted exactly like the vanilla cream.

However, the rich-chocolate frosting made this one better than the vanilla-crème doughnut. The graham-cracker crumbs, on the other hand, didn't add nearly as much crunch as I'd hoped, nor did they add much flavor.

I was pleasantly surprised by the coconut doughnut.
The coconut shreds added an interesting texture to the doughnut.

If you've ever worked in a large office setting where people leave a box of doughnuts in the communal kitchen, you know Dunkin's coconut flavor is almost always the last one to go. But when I actually tried it, I found it was better than I expected it to be.

The coconut shreds on the outside added a very mild flavor and an interesting texture. If I ever have an office job again, I won't sweat so much about getting to the doughnuts before there's only one left.

I liked that the jelly doughnut had granulated sugar on top.
Dunkin' doesn't specify what type of jelly it uses to fill the jelly doughnuts.

Oddly, Dunkin' doesn't specify on the menu what type of jelly it uses to fill the jelly doughnuts. However, in 2019, a spokesperson told Today.com that it's an "apple and raspberry-flavored filling."

The jelly was indistinctly fruity and gooey in flavor, but it had a nice, mild tanginess that complemented the sweetness of the doughnut.

It was the only doughnut I tried that was topped with granulated sugar instead of powdered sugar, which I liked because of the extra crunch.

My family and I enjoyed the Bavarian-kreme doughnut.
The Bavarian-cream filling added moisture to the doughnut.

Dunkin's Bavarian-kreme doughnut looks almost identical to the vanilla-creme one, but my family and I all preferred the filling in this variety.

The Bavarian-cream filling had a more natural, off-white color, as well as a more neutral flavor. The filling also added moisture to the doughnut without making it overpoweringly sweet.

I loved the base of the double-chocolate doughnut.
I thought the frosting on this doughnut was unnecessary.

The double-chocolate doughnut was one of only two I tried that had Dunkin's chocolate-cake doughnut base.

However, I didn't think the chocolate frosting added any real diversity to the flavor and only served to make the doughnut sweeter and a bit messier.

Dunkin's Boston-kreme doughnut is a classic for a reason.
The Boston-kreme doughnut is filled with Dunkin's Bavarian cream.

The Boston-kreme doughnut is topped with a thick coating of chocolate icing and filled with Dunkin's Bavarian cream.

It's a classic combination for a reason — the warm, chocolate flavor of the icing pairs perfectly with the mild, velvety filling.

My 6-year-old was surprised that he liked the Boston-kreme flavor more than the double chocolate, as he usually prefers the most chocolatey dessert available.

The powdered doughnut tasted fresh.
The powdered sugar gave this doughnut a nostalgic appeal.

The top spots on this list all belong to simple, classic doughnuts. In three of the four cases — the powdered doughnut included — I was surprised by how much I enjoyed them.

The cake-style powdered doughnut was soft and tasted fresh, and the powdered sugar gave it a nostalgic appeal.

The old-fashioned doughnut was another pleasant surprise.
I liked the simplicity of the old-fashioned doughnut.

I figured the humdrum old-fashioned doughnut would land near the bottom of my ranking.

However, it was one of the first doughnuts I tried, and by far the biggest surprise — if it weren't for this taste test, I would've never chosen one myself. However, I really enjoyed it.

I could've gone for more of the outer crunchiness of classic, deep-fried cake doughnuts. Still, this one felt well-suited for eating alongside (and occasionally dipping in) a hot cup of coffee.

The glazed doughnut was simple but delicious.
The outer glaze added sweetness and flavor without overwhelming the doughnut.

I know what you're probably thinking — boring. But this big, soft, sweet doughnut was a stealth favorite.

The sweet, flaky outer glaze added sweetness and flavor without overwhelming the doughnut itself (which is something that was lost in the frosted options).

The glazed-chocolate doughnut was my favorite.
The glazed-chocolate doughnut was the last one I tried.

I'll admit, the winning flavor was no surprise. From 40-plus years of doughnut-eating experience, I knew that the glazed-chocolate variety is among Dunkin's best.

It was the final doughnut I tried, and after trying 15 flavors, I really wasn't in the mood for another. However, I ate the whole thing.

I'm not normally a chocolate lover, but the chocolate-cake doughnut had only a mild cocoa flavor, a hearty cakiness, and just enough glaze to sweeten the whole thing up without making it taste too sugary.
