Quick answer
Our top picks are Jerry’s Cakes & Donuts, The Sour and The Rustic Nook Bakery and Coffee.
These Rapid City listings include independent bakeries and donut shops, plus locally established Daylight Donuts. I excluded Sweet Secrets Bakery because available listings conflict about its status and some mark it permanently closed; I could verify seven places that appear to be operating, rather than stretch the list with uncertain or national-chain entries.
