Helms Bakery and See's Candies are teaming up for some limited-time, chocolatey treats this summer

Time Out06-06-2025
Today is National Doughnut Day, and in case you needed another reason to reach for a deep-fried treat, Culver City's Helms Bakery will be frying up a weekend-only special doughnut in collaboration with beloved chocolate brand See's Candies. The locally founded company operates one of its main chocolate factories just a few blocks away on a busy stretch of La Cienega Boulevard.
The See's Toffee-ette doughnut ($5) consists of a raised yeast round filled with toffee cream and topped with chocolate glaze, crushed Toffee-ettes and drizzled white chocolate. I actually had the opportunity to try the doughnut in a day-before preview, and it's delicious. The toffee cream isn't overpoweringly sweet, and the chocolate glaze plays nicely with the crushed nuts and toffee and hint of white chocolate.
The limited-time item is available from today (while supplies last) through Sunday, June 8, with the potential to continue into subsequent weekends, depending on popularity and supplies. By our accounts, Helms Bakery is already home to some of the city's best doughnuts —though fewer than a half dozen flavors are available at any given moment.
The Toffee-ette doughnut is the first of a series of limited-time collabs between the two iconic L.A brands, according to Sang Yoon, the chef-owner of the newly revived Helms Bakery. Over the summer, the Culver City bakery, deli and gourmet market plans to unveil at least three unique items—a pastry, a sundae and a drink—inspired by See's signature sweets.

Get a dozen doughnuts for just 88 cents at Krispy Kreme

Krispy Kreme knows how to spread the love. Whether it's celebrating National Doughnut Day, the Olympics or giving away a sweet treat after a stressful day, the beloved chain has plenty of deals for doughnut fans. This Friday, July 18, Krispy Kreme is set to celebrate 88 years with another tasty offer: a dozen glazed doughnuts for just 88 cents. You read that right: For one day only you can get an Original Glazed dozen for a mere 88 cents when you purchase any dozen at regular price. "Eighty-eight has never felt and tasted so great," said Alison Holder, Krispy Kreme Chief Brand and Product Officer. "It's a real joy every year celebrating Krispy Kreme's birthday with our fans and treating them to a special deal. We're so grateful for their love and loyalty." The deal is good for up to two discounted dozens in store or via the drive-thru, or one dozen when ordered online for pickup or delivery (use code BDAY). It's only available while supplies last, so get there early to claim your party favor. This celebration tips its hat to Krispy Kreme's roots. Back in 1937, founder Vernon Rudolph started by selling doughnuts wholesale. But the heavenly aroma pouring onto the street drew in passersby hungry for a taste. Rudolph cut a hole in the wall, started selling direct to customers, and the Original Glazed legend was born. Eighty-eight years later, the formula hasn't changed: a melt-in-your-mouth classic that's impossible to resist—especially when that famous Hot Light is glowing. Today, Krispy Kreme keeps fans happy with new flavors and limited drops, but the Original Glazed remains the hero.

Kneecap release film with Gaza surgeons ahead of Glastonbury 2025 set

In a post on social media, the film titled Stop The Genocide came ahead of their slot at the festival taking place on the West Holts Stage at 4pm on Saturday. The Irish rap trio are considered the most controversial act performing this year after one of their members was charged with a terror offence. Before the festival, Prime Minister Keir Starmer said it would not be 'appropriate' for them to perform. READ MORE: IDF soldiers ordered to shoot deliberately at unarmed Gazans waiting for aid The video was posted with the caption, 'Kneecap is not the story. Genocide in Gaza is.' The group then explained in another post that the video, called "See It. Say It. Censored" is an 'artist-led alternative PSA presented by Kneecap that demands urgent action to stop the genocide unfolding in Gaza.' The group added: 'Created by a coalition of artists and powered by the testimony of medics and activists, the film builds on reports from Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch and UN agencies, to lay out the facts and call for vital action.' Rapper Liam Og O hAnnaidh, who was charged for allegedly displaying a flag in support of proscribed terrorist organisation Hezbollah at a gig in London in November last year, opens the video, saying: "Genocide is a crime against the whole of humanity." The 27-year-old, who performs under the stage name Mo Chara and was released on unconditional bail until his next hearing on August 20, narrates the video. He sets out what "the Israeli government told you what they were gonna do," playing an audio clip of former Israeli defence minister Yoav Gallant saying: "We are laying a complete siege on Gaza. No electricity, no food. We are fighting against human animals." Plastic surgeon Dr Rossel Morhij features and shares how she had to amputate limbs with blunt instruments. Emergency Physician James Smith adds: "Aid distribution centres are becoming literal killing fields."

O hAnnaidh then adds: "We didn't choose solidarity. We've lived under occupation. We know that silence is death." Clips of bombings in Northern Ireland are shown as he states this line. The band then urges viewers to support boycotts, divestments, and sanctions against Israel.
