ALLENTOWN, Pa. – A donut shop in Allentown is making the most out of its mention on a late-night show.
They made a special delivery to New York for Stephen Colbert and the late show staff.
Boxes and boxes of donuts from Mary Ann Donut Kitchen made it to the city. It was such a great move after late night TV host Stephen Colbert and Lehigh Valley native and actor Amanda Seyfried were chatting about the shop earlier this week.
Amanda was a guest on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on Tuesday night to chat about her new film “The Testament of Ann Lee.”

On the show, they did a bit Colbert calls “Community Calendar.” It always highlights real events from his guest’s hometown.
And since Amanda is from Allentown — she went to William Allen High School — the community calendar was all about the Lehigh Valley, including Mary Ann Donut Kitchen.
Mary Ann Donut Kitchen made the most of the mention and posted about it on social media.
And then they had this great idea: bakers dropped off dozens and dozens of donuts for Colbert and his staff to enjoy Thursday. The post reads “our very first and only delivery had been made.”
