I Doughnuts! Especially Boston cream, and original Krispy Kreme. But anything filled with lemon, raspberry or Bavarian cream...yum! And custard filled long johns...shall I keep going? . I don’t have them very often though.

For my extreme sweet tooth it's the Krispy Kreme Chocolate Iced Creme filled donut. Otherwise I like the plain white cake donut with white icing topped with coconut or it's glazed donut holes.

Those were my favorites too but had to be cold from the fridge so the creme filling would be firm like frosting on a cake.

Dutch crumb donuts are my favorite, they used to have them at Dunkin years ago now I can only get them at the local amish market.

A Maple Creme Stick

What's a creme stick?

Any donut from the non-local bakery (hour drive). Also I see a lot of maple being said and I'm assuming you all are talking about nasty maple flavored donuts . Amish donuts are made from maple sugar as the sugar not a flavoring and they are fantastic as they don't taste like nasty maple flavor

And for Low-key, I had to look up "Bismark" as I saw someone post and look what I found...

Bismarck donut
Featured snippet from the web
In Ontario and the prairie western provinces of Canada, as well as parts of the Midwest and West in the US, such a round jelly- or custard-filled doughnut is commonly called a "bismark" or "bismarck" (after Otto von Bismarck), while a filled bar doughnut is called a "long john", and usually contains pastry cream, ...

Boston cream

John's Space Age Donuts used to make a maple glazed cinnamon roll. It was fantastic!

If I am just at a regular donut shop, I always get a Boston cream; however, if my daughter is picking up donuts at a local, specialty shop, I always get the brown butter hazelnut one. That thing is sooooooo good!!!

While I usually prefer raised donuts as opposed to cake donuts, we recently had a new specialty donut shop open in our area and they have an amazing blueberry cake donut that is dipped in blueberry glaze.

A town I lived in had a Krispy Kreme that made them fresh on one of those automated conveyer systems, and right off the belt those glazed ones were really good. Now it seems their stores around here don’t make them on site.

I haven't seen a shop that didn't have a "HOT NOW" neon sign. But there are the smaller ones that don't actually make them on site. They might have a machine that dumps hot glaze, which I guess is their version of close enough.

There are the larger, full production locations. They'll make them for all the smaller locations and possibly for supermarkets that might have a display. I've seen one around my area that closed down. In a few years a franchisee opened a small shop in a strip mall, but that also closed. I heard a lot of the smaller locations without their own production area might not participate in their promotions like their free days.

Powdered donut filled with Bavarian cream...lemon filled powder my next choice. Now I really want a donut, haven’t had one in awhile.

a free doughnut, in the 60s we raised pigs for pit barbeque in joshua tree, California. for larger profit we would travel down to Palm Springs to the wonder bread discount store. If the doughnuts were too old, they would be put into livestock feed barrels, box opened , dumped into barrel, box discarded. Dad knew to arrive late in the day, supervisor gone, workers knew my dad was poor, so they would throw in packed loves of bread....and boxed doughnuts....then we would travel back to Joshua Tree and unload the pick-up contents into a plywood bin, all along looking for those boxed doughnuts, us kids had the job of unloading the back of truck ( barrels were dumped into back of truck with sideboards) searching thru the slices of bread, loafs of bread, doughnut and those boxes of doughnut....nothing like free help from the neighborhood kids when there was free doughnuts involved.

That larger production store I mentioned also shut down after a few years. The few smaller stores I still see do have the neon sign, but maybe as you said only apply the glaze now. And I am not 100% sure, but it seems the sign is always on, whereas the production site sign was only on when they were actually coming off the belt. And they would give everyone a free one then too.
