Specialty Donuts

 is an Entree in Cook, Serve, Delicious! 2!!. It was added in the Barista Update.

Description
Specialty doughnuts were invented in 1865 shortly after the Confederate army surrendered to Ulysses S. Grant. Grant, who had thorough knowledge of the history of many pastry treats, understood the significance of doughnuts in the creation of the United States and wished to commemorate them along with the historic reunification of the nation.

Since doughnuts up until that point were made with a simple glazed coating which made them almost white in appearance, Grant thought it fitting to mark the victory's ramifications by developing new types of doughnuts that celebrated the diversity of the free Americans through bright colored glazes and toppings such as nuts and sprinkles. Though seen as very controversial at the time, Grant would utilize his later status as president to market the creation across the nation and around the world, leading to a surge in their popularity and overall acceptance for treats that looked different than what people were used to.
