About Daylight Donuts of Kansas City
At Daylight Donuts Kansas City (operating stores in Kansas: Leavenworth, Lansing, Basehor, Lenexa, Olathe and Gardner), we do everything that we can to serve the best products with the best ingredients ranging from how we do our preparation each day to the consistency of the glaze and toppings applied. Quality, consistency and freshness are critical focus areas for us. In addition, we know that coffee and donuts go hand-in-hand and we have partnered with the #1 rated coffee in Kansas City and one of the most renowned coffee roasters in the nation. Those beans are then roasted using a convection air-roasting method instead of the more traditional drum-roasting method, to ensure superior consistency and a tastier, smoother cup of coffee. We only use bean grinding and brewing equipment that the Roasterie has recommended to ensure that we are able to serve the best coffee possible.
