Dried mix donut recipe?

Dry donut mix

:smiles: Hello, I'm new here, so bear with me if I screw it up. I too have a donut machine (Belshaw) and am searching for a great vanilla based dry donut mix, one you just add water too. There is a company that makes a very good just add water mix, but getting it is a bit of a hassel and if you were overseas, even much harder and cost prohibitive. I am searching for a way to make a mix like the one you want and if I find the right recipe, I will gladly pass it along. You didn't say what country you were in, and that might make a difference on flour.

Dry Donut Mix

Hello and thanks for the reply. I lived almost 2 years in Vietnam many years ago and have a very different outlook now as opposed to when I was there. Occassionally I get to the Philippines (Cebu), but have never returned to 'Nam... I have seen many mixes that use eggs, milk and other persishables, but I would like one that utilizes a dry powdered milk and dry powdered eggs and a dry form of vanilla or nutmeg, etc. One I can mix ingredients for storage and then just mix with water when needed. I am nearing the finish of a concession trailer that will have full-size donuts (could make mini-donuts if needed) and I want to use ONE BASIC CAKE DONUT and then top some with cinnamon & sugar, some with vanilla or chocolate or strawberry icings, and then top some of the iced ones with colored sprinkles or chopped nuts. Some of the plain donuts I may just dip in a glaze. One basic donut makes many "different" donuts. I give this information to you so you may understand why I would like a recipe for dry mix too. There are companys here in Florida that sell dry mix, but you have to order so much and have an account. I may well go that route, but I still want to know how to make my own dry mix. I will keep searching and keep you informed my donut friend.

Hi, my name is Ana. I currently live in Boynton Beach, Florida. I have plans of opening a donut shop in San Salvador , El Salvador within the next 6 months. I have no experience making donuts or in this industry. However, I know that there is a great potential for this kind of product in my country. I plan on importing donut mixes from the USA.
It seems that you are all set up an running. I am contacting you today because I thought that you could give me some pointer or ideas to run my donut shop as cost efficently as possible. Any other information or guidance is appreciated. I am trying to decide on the equipment that I will need,therefore any info is appreciated.
Thanks for your kind help,
Ana

Hello ana, I assume you are now operating your own donut shop. I,too am planning of operating my own donut shop here in the Philippines but my problem is that my freashly fried yeast raised donuts turn stale after just an hour exposed to room temp. By the way, may I know how many hours does your donuts could stay soft? Can you please share me some tips on what to add to the basic donut recipe that keeps your donut soft like those donuts of Dunkin Donuts that could stay soft for 24hrs in room temp. You could email me at Louelljoy@yahoo.com. Thanks for any tips you could share.

Hi!

 

What mix do you use? I'm looking for a good one here in the states.

 

Thanks!

Hi

 

Have just bought a Lil Orbits machine and find that the pre-mix has not only arrived short but that the cost, including shipping, throws all hope of making reasonable profit out the window.  Really need the secret cake mix recipe that can be used in the Automatic Machine.  I live in Zimbabwe so things like dried eggs are not available.  Anyone got suggestions please on mixes that I can use that give a similiar appearance and taste?

 

Thanks

 

Hi,

 

Did you managed to get donut mix recipe, pls share...

ANA..

Read the ingredients on the bag and try and duplicate yourself. Many times I have done this with expensive products.  Also you can;t survive on donuts alone. You can see this by watching dunkin and seeing all the other stuff they are now selling, try cupcakes as thats the vogue here now.  Equipment is expensive, I suggest starting off buying used from a reputable rest supply co.

Ed,

 

You're 2-1/2 years late.  Whatever she's going to do, she did.
