City Donut
City Donut offers made-from-scratch donuts fresh daily in Orange Beach along with brewed coffee and espresso drinks. It's not open late night so you would have to plan ahead and buy a dozen and have them waiting for you at the condo after a night of Bushwackers at the Flora-Bama. In the morning, the line outside starts early, and they typically sell out every day. We go at least once each time we visit, and we'll wager that these will be some of the best donuts you've ever had.

Hope's Cheesecake
Hope's has been creating spectacular gourmet cheesecakes in Gulf shores since 1996. You can buy it by the slice or by the cake and can ship one home to anywhere in the USA. Plan early and get one in the fridge for that after dinner or late-night craving. Pam's favorite is the Key Lime (she loves everything Key Lime).
