What’s Your (Donut) Sign?

At family-run Donut Kingdom, National Donut Day is a big deal. Each year, all three Tallahassee locations (on West Tennessee Steet, North Monroe Steet, and South Blairstone Road) give out free donuts in celebration. It’s a tradition that speaks to their focus on community, notes Hiba Khalil, whose parents, Adam and Susan, founded the kingdom in 2009.

Aries:  Red Velvet with Cream Cheese 

March 21 to April 19

A fire sign with a reputation for being passionate and bold needs a red-hued donut to match. Red velvet is classic but with an edge, making it perfect for enthusiastic Aries.  

Taurus:  Snickers

April 20 to May 20

Regarded as being loyal but stubborn, Taurus will find solace from hangry inclinations in a Snickers donut. It’s a treat as satisfying and decadent as this pleasure-loving earth sign.

Gemini:  Vegan Marble

May 21 to June 21

Gemini is known for being multifaceted, curious, and playful, so they need a donut that is equally dynamic. Donut Kingdom’s vegan marble cake donut features a multicolor design (typically chocolate and vanilla frostings) that captures the duality and complexity of the twin sign. 

Cancer:  French Toast

June 22 to July 22

Emotional and nurturing, Cancer deserves a donut that feels like a big hug. The French toast donut wraps you in warmth with its nostalgic flavor and comforting vibes.

Leo:  Cinna-Ring 

July 23 to August 22

Attention-seeking Leo could only be matched with Donut Kingdom’s bestseller. With cream cheese frosting and a dusting of cinnamon, the Cinna-Ring is an impossible-to-resist treat that will leave you roaring for more. 

Virgo:  Chocolate Frosted

August 23 to September 22

The only logical choice for logical Virgo is the delicious yet modest chocolate frosted. Simple but satisfying, it’s one donut that can easily meet this earth sign’s high standards.

Libra:  Strawberry Sprinkles 

September 23 to October 23

If one food personifies “charm,” it’s an adorable strawberry sprinkle donut—a heavenly match for sociable Libra. While this donut wows in aesthetics, it also delivers a balanced flavor ideal for an air sign that seeks harmony. 

Scorpio:  Key Lime Filled

October 24 to November 21

This sleeper hit on the Donut Kingdom menu is ready to strike with a tart filling hidden within a pillowy exterior. Mysterious, intense, and full of surprises, the key lime-filled donut shares much in common with enigmatic Scorpio. 

Sagittarius:  Maple Frosted

November 22 to December 21 

Positive, spontaneous, and perhaps a bit flighty, Sagittarius should savor a free-spirited sweet that evokes a sense of wanderlust. With its golden glow and caramelized flavor, the maple frosted donut—much like this adventurous fire sign—is always up for anything.

Capricorn:  Old-Fashioned Plain Cake with Black Coffee

December 22 to January 19

Ambitious Capricorn needs a no-nonsense donut that works as hard as they do. The quintessential pairing of an old-fashioned plain cake donut with a strong black coffee (which Donut Kingdom roasts in house) is ready to get the job done. 

Aquarius:  Cinnamon Toast Crunch

January 20 to February 18

Inventive with a creative crunch, this donut is a great complement to an air sign with a knack for thinking outside of the box. Aquarius is known for being a rule breaker, and the addition of cereal on a donut should scratch that rebellious itch. 

Pisces:  Fruity Pebble 

February 19 to March 20

A favorite among college students, the Fruity Pebble donut exemplifies the imaginative, whimsical nature of Pisces. With its kaleidoscopic colors and sweet-meets-tart pops of flavor, this donut is bound to get along swimmingly with the fish sign.
