Donut Moments

Donut Moments is a small takeaway bakery in Queens Park, Western Australia, known for donuts. Locals describe them as light, soft and not overly sweet, with a range of flavours to choose from. Pistachio cream, almond cream, apple custard, cream milk and the familiar jam donut all get a mention, and there's even a flan donut that nods to Filipino flavours. One regular says they keep coming back even when they have to grab a coffee elsewhere.

It isn't only donuts, though. The shop has a Korean bakery streak, and customers mention the garlic bread, a fried croquette bun in the style of a Japanese curry bun, and a sweet potato treat with a chewy outer layer. We've also heard they do custom cakes and cake in a cup, and that pies are one of the things they're known for. The advice from those who know it is to go early, when the baking is freshly out of the oven.

Expect a tight little shop rather than a sit-down spot. There are no tables inside, so it suits a quick stop and a bag to take away, and you'll probably brush shoulders with other bread lovers at busy times. Delivery is also offered if you'd rather have it come to you. The staff get warm mentions for being friendly and welcoming, and people say the owner and her husband are lovely. Some reckon the value is fair for what you get, though some find the specialty items pricey, so it's worth looking at the display before you fill the box.

Locals also mention that it opened under a previous name, Sweet Moments, before the change to Donut Moments. Not everyone is won over, and one or two visitors have had an off day with stale stock or a flavour that missed the mark, but most come away happy. There's a free car park and a wheelchair-accessible entrance, and you can pay by card or tap. Check the hours before you go, especially if you're after a particular flavour.
