Glaz\u2019d Donuts is a fresh-made donut shop opening not one but two locations in Clearwater this summer. That\u2019s right, two. Because apparently one wasn\u2019t enough to make the point, and we respect that energy.<\/p>\n<p>The two spots are at 411 S Myrtle Ave and 2006 Drew St. Both will be open daily from 5 am to 2 pm, which means there\u2019s no reasonable excuse for showing up to work hungry. None. You have nine full hours of donut access before they close. If you\u2019re still walking into your 9 am meeting surviving on a protein bar and quiet desperation, that\u2019s a choice, and it\u2019s a bad one.<\/p>\n<p>What separates Glaz\u2019d from the strip-mall chains is a commitment to doing this the old-fashioned way: everything is hand-cut, hand-glazed, and made fresh daily. No day-olds. No mystery pastries shipped from a facility in a state you\u2019ve never visited. Just donuts, made that morning, by people who care.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"876\" height=\"876\" data-id=\"268343\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image-3.jpg\" alt=\"An assortment of glazed and decorated donuts\" class=\"wp-image-268343\"  \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"606\" height=\"606\" data-id=\"268341\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image-1-3.jpg\" alt=\"fresh kolaches\" class=\"wp-image-268341\"  \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"497\" height=\"497\" data-id=\"268342\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image-2.jpg\" alt=\"Two breakfast sandwiches stacked on top of each other\" class=\"wp-image-268342\"  \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Photos via Glaz\u2019d Donuts<\/p>\n<p>Their yeast-raised classics include glazed, powdered sugar, cinnamon sugar, chocolate iced, strawberry iced, and filled varieties like cr\u00e8me, Bavarian cr\u00e8me, and raspberry. Cake donut fans aren\u2019t left out either, with options like blueberry cake, chocolate cake, and old fashioned, all finished with glazes, gourmet coatings, or toppings. And there are donut holes, because sometimes you don\u2019t want to commit to a full donut and you should be allowed to live your life. They come by the half-dozen, dozen, or on a kabob, which is a sentence that should make anyone\u2019s Tuesday morning measurably better.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond the donuts, Glaz\u2019d serves kolaches, baked fresh daily and filled with savory sausage or ham and melted cheese, all wrapped in soft golden dough. There are also made-to-order breakfast bagels with bacon, ham, or sausage, egg, and melted cheese. And the coffee program, which includes iced coffees, espresso lattes, and frapp\u00e9s, actually wants to be paired with your order rather than just existing nearby.<\/p>\n<p>Opening two locations simultaneously takes real confidence in your product. Clearwater mornings have been quietly waiting for exactly this kind of commitment.<\/p>\n<p>Follow them on <a href=\"http:\/\/tiktok.com\/@glazd.donuts\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">TikTok<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/glazd.donuts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Instagram<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"107\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BEYONDTHEBURG_VSPC_1200-1024x107.png\" alt=\"Beyond the burg made possible by visit st pete clearwater\" class=\"wp-image-111256\"  \/>\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><script async src=\"\/\/www.tiktok.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Clearwater is getting two new donut shops this summer, with the first expected to debut in June.
