Doughnut shop had to close in SLO County beach town. What's taking its place?
A beloved doughnut shop in Cayucos closed its teal doors last month after less than a year in business — but a new spot is already slated to take over the vacant space. The bakery, Surf Rat Donuts, rested at 101 D St. just a few steps away from the beach itself. A quaint spot for solid business during the summer, co-owner Ben Brown said he opened the shop July 4. 'We wanted to share basically the kind of donuts that we like when we go visit other areas,' Brown told The Tribune. 'That's why we really wanted to try to bring it here, because no one's doing it, and no one is still doing it and I think that was the whole goal.' Brown made the doughnuts from scratch with his wife Jessica and kids, aiming to provide warm doughnuts for every customer, but tough winter months proved fatal for the business. 'We would do really well during the summer, but we can't use the profit for the three months that we're open to sustain or to pay for the overhead for the slow nine months,' Brown said. Surf Rat Donuts also found some success in weekends and local events. But while an influx of people over social media supported the business, there weren't enough local visits to keep it going. 'Everyone loved this. Our following was growing and we were getting people from out of the area. Everything was going great,' Brown said. 'It's just, I don't know. It's not enough local business during the off season.' Surf Rat Donuts officially closed 10 months later on April 13, near the time its lease ended. Brown said he was looking for a place that still served food to take over the lease. 'We made a hard decision right before this summer to make way for another, like a food, a lunch, something that people would eat everyday,' Brown said. Brown went to friends that he made from starting up Surf Rat Donuts, and eventually he gave a local couple the opportunity to start another business. Owners of Pie in the Sky Pizza and High Tide Deli, Ellen and Jeremy Sizemore, were approached by Brown about taking over the spot's lease. 'We always have a kind of Rolodex of business ideas in our head of, wouldn't it be fun to do blank?,' Ellen Sizemore told The Tribune. 'For that one, we weren't necessarily looking for a place actively to start a burger place, but when that location came up, we thought, 'What would go well here? What would be a good addition to Cayucos?'' Enter Mosey's Burgers. The Sizemores said they saw an opportunity for burgers — smashburgers in particular — and tallow fries to be the stars of the menu at the seaside space. 'It's a really simple menu with very quality ingredients,' she said. 'We're not going to use seed oils either with the frying, so that's going to be a big draw as well.' Sizemore emphasized the simplicity of Mosey's Burgers, with the name symbolizing 'moseying' on down to the beach to grab a burger, and the tranquility and slowness of the small beach town. 'In Cayucos, it's such a laid-back environment that people are kind of moseying on down to the water,' she said. 'We were looking for that kind of style of using an iconic name.' Sizemore said the restaurant's ambiance is set for vintage 1970s and early 1980s looks. It's already painted in retro orange, yellow and blue stripes. Mosey's Burgers is set to open in the next month, and its Instagram page is teasing the light construction and locally sourced burgers.

Krispy Kreme fans go wild for new pistachio doughnut after Brits demanded it be brought to UK
KRISPY Kreme has delighted its fans by bring a sought-after flavour to the UK. The American doughnut brand was hounded by its UK customers to introduce the Pistachio Overload flavour that had already hit stores in Australia. 5 5 Krispy Kreme told The Sun that "Brits begged the brand to bring the new flavour to the UK after seeing the delicious nutty treat go viral in Australia last month." Not only has Krispy Kreme brought the flavour from Australia to the UK, it teamed up with a British company to produce the yummy taste. The Pistachio Overload doughnut officially made it into stores on Monday (May 12), but was available at Krispy Kremes in Manchester a day earlier. That was due to the fact Krispy Kreme had teamed up with the Mancunian brand, Blackmilk, to create the iconic dessert. Blackmilk's beloved Pistachio Cream spread is being used in the baking of the new doughnut flavour. The green delight is topped with the Blackmilk cream, a white chocolate drizzle and candied pistachio nibs, while Krispy Kreme's trademarked pistachio cream fills the doughnut. Krispy Kreme confirmed to The Sun that Pistachio Overload will be available for £3.49 in all UK and Ireland stores until May 25. It will land in Tesco UK branches on May 19 until May 25. The UK shop that top star says should be on 'UK Heritage List' - as it's better than the Eiffel Tower Krispy Kreme announced the doughnut's arrival on social media and said it hoped the news would make up for the April Fools' joke it had played on its followers. On April 1, the brand posted a "message" from its managing director saying that after 87 years, it would be discontinuing its famous glazed doughnut. The joke letter said the decision had been made in order to create space for the reintroduced, raspberry glazed doughnut. The jam-filled treat was first discontinued in November 2024, causing a stir among sweet-toothed customers. Even Alison Hammond begged the brand not to axe her favourite flavour on ITV's This Morning. The flavour is back by popular demand thanks to a nationwide public vote - dubbed "The Great Doughbate". This poll took place in Krispy Kreme shops and across social media between March 17 and 23. Fans were given the opportunity to decide which discontinued favourite flavour to bring back. The Glazed Raspberry was pitted against another fan favourite, Chocolate Custard. However, the fruity flavour won out with the British public, receiving 66% of the total votes.
