Hello everyone, I'm new here and hoping that someone can answer a question I have about the jelly in jelly donuts.
I love making donuts at home, but I'd like to fill them with the same kind of jelly used in donuts that come from a bakery. I've looked at countless jelly donut recipes online, and every single one that I've found just says fill with your favorite jelly or jam, or something to that effect. The problem is, the filling in bakery donuts is much different than regular jelly or jam--it's smoother and thicker, and has a different taste. For me, it's the highlight of the donut, and I'd really like to know how they do it.
Do bakeries order the filling from some sort of specialty shop, or is there a way to "doctor up" regular jelly to make it similar to bakery donuts?
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.
