Vera's Marketplace & Garden Center

Every season, I drive two hours to get 2 boxes of apple cider donuts. Only one box makes it back safely.

A wonderful, family-owned market. Their produce is always peak quality, and their selection of milk, cheese, and pastas always great and very appealing. Also love their available flowers and garden items! It is always a pleasure to come here.

Cute little farmer's market. Came specifically for the apple cider donuts. Got plain, cinnamon sugar and powdered sugar. Plain and cinnamon sugar were awesome. Powdered overpowered the simplicity of the plain and their messy, not as good. Would buy again.

We had Vera’s donuts & cider at our wedding in the beginning of November & our friends & family are still talking about how delicious they were! It was the perfect snack for our guests at the end of the night & even more perfect for fall. Dominic was so nice & easy to work with. It’s so nice working with and supporting local small businesses. I can’t thank you guys enough!

This review purely is for Vera's apple cider donuts.

We had a cinnamon sugar, powdered sugar, and powdered cinnamon donut. All of the donuts were warm and it's obvious they're freshly made. Each one was soft and fluffy on the inside, yet had a crispy exterior for a great textual balance. The cinnamon sugar was the standout, but all 3 were really very good and better than most in the Hudson Valley. I might not suggest dipping them in coffee because they're not quite dense enough for that, but that's not a knock against them at all.

Since we had them right when the shop opened, they were warm and fresh, so my only concern is that if you stop in later in the day, you might not get the peak flavor, freshness, and crispness. I do believe they'll still be well worth the trip, however.
