Written by DIG STAFF Posted April 1, 2015 Filed Under: Eats, LIFESTYLE

For too long, Saugus was the only place around to land the sugar-coma-inducing wonderfulness that anyone who’s ever stopped by Kane’s Handcrafted Donuts has come to love and salivate over. That regrettable situation, however, is no more. Because located at Two International Place downtown, on the corner of Oliver Street is the first honest-to-goodness Boston outpost of Kane’s, which we checked out for due diligence. And we’re now ready to share our highly scientific and by no means beachbody-friendly numerical investigation into the facts. Warning: May induce severe involuntary drooling.

 

Years since Kane’s dough recipe was developed mastered by Kane’s founder Peter Delios: 60

 

Children of Delios currently in charge: 2

 

Weeks open downtown: 2

 

Size of new outpost in square feet: 700

 

Varieties of donuts in their arsenal: 100+

 

Diff varieties offered on the day we visited: 28

 

Average price range per donut: $2.50-3.50

 

Number of passersby we saw with their faces pressed against the display window during our visit: 5

 

Number who looked like they were about to chew their way through the glass: 5

 

Number of warm-weather seasonal creations using a gelato base for donut flavoring: 2

 

Number of sandwiches they plan to roll out using donuts as the sandwich bread: 3

 

Estimated seconds it will take to say “Holy shit!” when you hear they’re rolling out a line of sandwiches using donuts for the sandwich bread: 0.00000001

 

Average pounds you’re slated to put on due to their arrival downtown: 2-38 (depends on frequency of visits)

 

Days of the week they make and offer cronuts: 1 (it’s a Friday special)

 

Days of the week they should serve cronuts: 7

 

Dozens of cronuts initially whipped up for first Friday: 4

 

Amount that was increased to due to insane demand: 3

 

Hours until they sold out of first cronut run: 2

 

Number of cronuts you could eat in one sitting: [REDACTED]
