10. Dun-Well 
Rao
It's Christmas in July right now at Christopher Hollowell and Daniel Dunbar's Williamsburg shop, which means the staff saunters about in velvet Santa gear, celebrating with dense, chocolate-peppermint doughnuts. We like Dun-Well's fun, laid-back approach to vegan baking. And this glazed wreath, dusted with cinnamon sugar, is a nice sweet puff of holiday cheer. 222 Montrose Avenue, Brooklyn
9. The Donut Pub 
Rao
This narrow, tiled shop on 14th Street has been slinging its simple, classic doughnuts since the early 1960s. The next time you're looking for something affordable and celebratory, keep in mind that a dozen chocolate dippers--the Pub's chocolate cake doughnut with a chocolate glaze--will make a suitable, if somewhat trashy substitute, for an actual cake. 203 West 14th Street
8. Orwasher's
Rao
Keith Cohen updated the original Orwasher's, an Upper East Side bakery founded in 1916, when he bought it in 2007. He also decided to revive and continue some of the bakery's old traditions, like the jelly doughnuts. The super-light yeast buns are fried off site, then filled to-order with extremely tasty jams from Beth's Farm Kitchen. The strawberry, pictured, is delightful. 308 East 78th Street
