History[edit | edit source]
Blue Star Donuts was founded in 2012 by Katie Poppe and Micah Camden. The first location opened in the bustling city of Portland, which is known for its vibrant food scene.

The menu features a rotating selection of flavors, often inspired by seasonal ingredients and culinary trends.
