Fractured Prune

Amazing. Best doughnuts I’ve ever had, definitely made with that special ingredient :)

I had high expectations for these donuts after seeing what they looked like online and advertisements around Baltimore. Location isn’t the greatest but tried them anyways. Donuts were very hot and fresh maybe a little too hot as much of the toppings were melting off. The flavors is another story. Every donut smelled and tasted the same no real strong flavor as you would expect. Even those with chocolate chips you couldn’t taste the chocolate. The strawberry shortcake had a slight hint of Strawberry when you smelled it but sure didn’t taste like it. I most likely wont be back.

Delicious! Melting warm goodness.
I have to say, walking in I thought It would a crispy crème 2.0. After 4 scrumptious donuts my opinions have deeply changed.
First things first, the place is a nice little donut shop with nice parking next to the building. When you walk inside there is an eye catching nice little presentation of seasonal/​recommended donuts. The guy up front was pretty helpful and service was quick.
The donuts are not your regular yeast or cake donuts. It’s not very big, in fact I could easily eat one in two bites.
These donuts are meant to be eaten HOT. They have a pleasant crunchy/​chewy/​melting texture that you probably can’t resist. I had the almond joy, s’mores, Samoa, and sticky bun. They all actually tasted very similar but all delicious.
However, they ran out of maple, peanut butter and another glaze today so I’ll have to come back to try the more famous ones.
It was a great experience! Only 5 dollars for 4 donuts too! It’s not crispy crème. It’s better.

Stopped on a whim because the sign stood out and my boyfriend loves donuts. Tried two donuts: orange cream and rolo. They were delicious!
Also had a bacon, egg and cheese breakfast sandwich on an everything bagel and it was awesome, too.
Definitely recommend if you like traditional donuts with a twist.

Very reasonable price. The stuff you’re an amazing can’t even like put together words right now to even describe how amazing the really are. The donuts are out of this world super warm and melt in your mouth like truffle.

My First time here was great! Helpful staff, hot, fresh donuts, endless options! Morning Buzz (add coconut) & OC Sand are my favorite! Also ordered a fruit smoothie, it was on point!
My second time here the donuts were small & oval shaped, the cereal toppings tasted stale & the bagel to my breakfast sandwich was overcooked & had rubber like texture. I was disappointed!

Hot, fat, sink your teeth into this solidly, delicious cakey donut. The only thing missing is the distinction of flavors. Nearly all the donuts I sampled tasted the same — the French Toast bagel lacked anything tasting of French Toast — no custardy cinnamon and my Pineapple Upside donut, was missing its key ingredient, pineapple!
I have a feeling though, that these folks can even make bricks taste good. I’ll still go there and my belly will still be happy, I just wish the outer coating matched its description name tag.

Whatever they charged for their doughnuts, I would have gladly paid more. The doughnuts were perfectly warm and gooey while being covered in unique and thoughtful spices, sauces, or crunchy toppings. I bought a dozen for 4 people and wish I had gotten more.

Holy! Made to order donuts with seasonal topping like… say…fruity pebbles??? Or smores. Crazy. That’s 400 calories I didn’t need

There are lots of different kinds of donuts out there these days. I prefer either a really light kind (like Krispy Kreme) or a crispy and cakey kind. The Fractured Prune makes a medium-​sized donut that is cakey and has a great, fresh, oily crisp to the outside. They have many great flavors and the custom options. The price is pretty good and the staff are nice and quick. My favorite flavors are the ones with chocolate.

Omg… Fruity Pebbles donuts… thank you Lord

These doughnuts are AMAZING! Fast and friendly customer service too.
Dunkin Donuts WHO? I wanted to go into DD and give them the middle finger! They are not to be compared. The Fractured Prune is in a class by themselves.

Hey I’ve heard many great reviews. I cannot wait until the Owings Mills location opens up. I always have a serious sweet tooth.,
I’m glad this location will be at Owings Mills Metro Crossing. Much success

I’m not a big sweet eater at all but when I want a doughnut this is the only place I go. I’m a Krispy Crème fan so Dunkin Donuts just doesn’t cut it! They have great flavor options, they’re always hot and fresh, and a good price! Win!

This is a small MD based chain; there used to be one in Fairfax that unfortunately closed years ago. I happened to be in the area, so my husband and I made it a point to come visit. This location is sort of on a crappy road because it’s right off the 695 exit with no street lights, so cars will be zipping from both directions and heaven forbid you have to take a left turn somewhere.
That aside, you can’t go wrong here. They have some combinations of glaze/​toppings to choose from, or you can make your own. All of the donuts are made to order and come to you still steaming fresh. On a nice day, there are tables outside to enjoy your donut treats.
My recommendation: banana glaze and chocolate chips. Yumm!

It’s nice to be able to select your own flavors and toppings, though there are a lot of options! Be sure to get napkins and either water or some other beverage, because the toppings are generous and it can get a bit messy! I personally prefer some of the simpler combinations, like honey and cinnamon sugar or whatnot.

This place has some pretty cool customized donuts. All donuts are fried and are coated with whatever flavor/​topping you choose. They’re good because it’s hot and freshly made on spot. It’s worth a try but I’m not sure if I’d return here all the time.
Also, this shop is more like a To-​Go only place as there is minimal seating and parking lot has limited spots.

I had high expectations, and they weren’t met, but this place is solid if you know what you’re getting.
So the fractured prune makes cake-​style donuts. They’re good donuts. There are a bunch of premade styles, and you can make your own by selecting a glaze and toppings.
I tried the Rolo, the Thin Mint, the PB Cup, a Maple Glazed, and Samoa. The rolo and PB Cup were glazed with caramel glaze and Pb glaze respectively, and then dipped in tiny chocolate chips. The donuts came out hot, so the chocolate chips melted nicely. However, I thought the chocalate chips they used were just overpowering the glazes entirely. I could barely tell these two donuts apart. The culprit became clear to me when I sampled the Maple Glazed donut (with no toppings). The glazes were nice and sweet, but the flavor of the glaze just wasn’t very strong.
We also got a bacon egg & cheese on an everything bagel to sample. The bagel was nice, though I’m pretty sure they weren’t making them in the back. It was a generic-​ish everything bagel, perfectly toasted. The egg was scrambled style, and there was a perfect amount of cheese. The bacon was well laid out and perfectly cooked.
This location has 2 picnic tables out front. There is minimal seating, and minimal parking, but they seem to do mostly take out business, so parking was flowing well, but we ended up eating off the hood of our car.
If you don’t let yourself get overly excited, these donuts can impress you. They come out hot and fresh, they’re solid, but the glazes and toppings could use work (which is probably more of a comment on the chain than on this particular franchise). But the best thing I ate here? It shouldn’t have been the breakfast sandwich…

All my life, I’ve told people I’m not a donut person, they’re just not for me. That changed about a week ago when I went to Fractured Prune. I’ve been hearing my friends rave about it for well over a year now, and I finally went to hunt them down. Finding them was a little difficult, they’re a tiny little white hut hidden in between busy streets, with awful parking spots, but none of that matters because the donuts were amazing.
So I walked in and informed the employee at the register that it was my first time there, and I had no idea what to order because I’m not a huge donut fan. He starting out by suggesting donuts to me, and even went through the menu and showed me the ones I could custom make for myself. Custom make your own donut! Seriously, what a time to be alive. But anyway, he helped me choose half a dozen different donuts, and then informed me that since it’s my first time, I get one for free. THEN, he said, he’ll throw in an another one for free, making my total out to be a mere $ 4, for 6 delicious donuts. As soon as I finished paying, he handed me my box seconds later. I expressed my surprise at how fast that had been, and then I realized the guy working in the back making the freshly made donuts, had been listening to my order all along! Now that’s doing your job like you mean it.
I sat outside the store, on one of their cute little benches, and enjoyed my donuts in the sunshine. I’ve been thinking about heading out back there as soon as I can, I need some more Fractured Prune in my life!

MMMMMM delicious! This is the best donut place and I absolutely love it. The donuts are always hot and made fresh to order. You pick your own glaze and toppings to customize the perfect donut. I never order just one and usually order a box of a half dozen or whole. I like to make sure that I never order two of the same so I can try as many combinations as possible. But then I can never remember which flavor is which, but that’s okay because they are ALL good :)
I feel like the locations in Ocean City are more authentic, but I love that they have locations closer to home so I can enjoy their donuts without making a three hour drive.
