4 Best Donuts near Des Moines

“A family favorite and we are so thankful they are in our neighborhood. They take the most pride in their work. Everything is always fresh and delivered.“

“Absolutely incredible donuts and cronuts— a must-visit!

ChuChus Donuts blew me away from the first bite! Their cronut bites are on a whole different level — flaky, buttery, and crisp on the outside, with soft, airy layers inside that just melt in your mouth. Each one has that perfect golden crunch that gives way to rich, indulgent goodness. They’re sweet without being overpowering, and every bite feels like a little piece of pastry heaven.

I also tried their cake donuts, and they deserve just as much praise. Moist, dense in the best way, and full of flavor — all had that homemade taste that feels both nostalgic and elevated. Not overly greasy, just perfectly balanced.

The staff was friendly, the shop was clean, and the selection was fresh, get there early, or they may be sold out. Whether you’re a cronut connoisseur or just love a good donut, ChuChus is worth every visit. I’ll be coming back — probably more often than I should!“

“I went over today and got a Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew and got home and immediately dropped it on my kitchen floor. I called and Chelsea (I hope I’m spelling her name right.) agreed to remake my drink even though they didn’t have to. Thanks Scooters on Euclid Crew! 😁 I really appreciate it.“

“This location has struggled for several years now finding hard working people who are dedicated to their job and show up but the new owners of the place have gone above and beyond!! They have been so nice and the food is fresh, coffee is well made, and they do it all with a smile! They are very hard working and you can tell they want to make your experience pleasant, HIGHLY recommend this location!!“
