History of LaMar’s Donuts
LaMar’s Donuts was founded in 1960 by Ray Lamar in Kansas City, Missouri. Ray, who had been perfecting his donut recipe since the 1930s, opened his first shop with a commitment to making fresh, high-quality donuts by hand. The original location quickly became a local favorite, known for its light, airy texture and rich flavors. Over the years, LaMar’s Donuts expanded beyond Missouri, opening stores in multiple states while maintaining its traditional approach to donut-making.
Despite its growth, LaMar’s has stayed true to its roots, ensuring that each donut is made fresh daily without preservatives. The company’s reputation for excellence has earned it numerous awards and a loyal customer base. Today, LaMar’s Donuts continues to be a staple in the American donut scene, blending tradition with innovation to keep its classic flavors alive.
