National Doughnut Day HistoryNational Donut Day is celebrated annually to honor the treat that has become an iconic symbol in the world of confectionery: donuts. This observance is celebrated by baking and consuming donuts, as well as enjoying various discounts and promotions from donut shops across the country. Initially created by The Salvation Army in 1938, this celebration aims to recognize the organization’s female volunteers or “Donut Lassies,” who served donuts to soldiers during World War I. While the origins of National Donut Day are firmly rooted in American military history, donuts have since gained popularity in the UK. The versatility and accessibility of the donut makes them a beloved treat for people from all walks of life. The United Kingdom also has a thriving donut industry, with specialty donut shops and bakers creating variations on the classic sugar-coated ring donut. In the United Kingdom, National Donut Day is observed on the first Friday in June. It is celebrated by various donut shops, cafes, and bakeries across the country, who offer discounts and promotions to their customers on this day. Some establishments may even offer limited edition flavors or styles of donuts to mark the occasion, making National Donut Day an anticipated event for donut lovers everywhere.
