From Humble Beginnings to Iconic Chain: The Sweet Legacy of Voodoo Doughnuts

Even if you’re not the biggest fan of sweets or have never been to Portland, chances are you’ve heard of Voodoo Doughnuts. One of their most popular creations is the Maple Bacon Bar, which combines sweet and savory flavors in a unique and delicious way.

Voodoo Doughnuts was founded in 2003 by Portland natives Kenneth “Cat Daddy” Pogson and Tres Shannon. They aimed to create a doughnut shop that offered more than just your average doughnuts, infusing their creations with creativity, humor, and unexpected ingredients. Nearly two decades later, they’ve become a nationwide sensation with Voodoo Doughnut locations popping up all over the country – including a spot at Universal CityWalk in Orlando.

Satisfy Your Sweet Tooth: Why Voodoo Doughnuts Should Be Your Go-To Breakfast Spot

We’re thrilled that Voodoo Doughnuts is conveniently located at Universal CityWalk, meaning you don’t need a park ticket to enjoy their tasty treats anytime you want. But let’s be real, we’d pay admission just for their Maple Bacon Bar.

However, it’s not just the Maple Bacon Bar that makes Voodoo Doughnuts so special. They offer an impressive 50 different signature flavors, giving you plenty of options to choose from. We recommend ordering a variety of flavors to share with your group for the ultimate Voodoo Doughnuts experience.

Not only do they have unique toppings and flavor combinations, but Voodoo Doughnuts also offers two types of doughnut bases: raised yeast doughnuts and cake doughnuts. Both are fried to perfection, but differ in their leavening agents. And let’s be clear, both are equally delicious!

Voodoo Doughnut Orlando is open daily from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m., making it a great option for breakfast, a midday snack, or a late-night dessert. Mobile ordering is available through Universal’s app, making it even easier to satisfy your sweet tooth.
