According to Bear Donut’s social media, flavors vary daily, but the NYC location regularly features favorites like the Bear Mochi doughnut topped with sugar, cheddar, and cinnamon, as well as glazed mochi doughnuts in toasted coconut, pistachio, raspberry yogurt, and cookies and cream. The menu also includes a rotating lineup of seasonal and holiday-inspired treats with themed decorations. Past offerings have included Christmas tree designs during the holidays, and bat-shaped sprinkles for Halloween, and the shop is currently promoting Valentine’s Day–inspired treats that double as a sweet + giftable treat.
