DONUTS!
Dunkin' Donuts. Sunrise Donuts. Krispy Kreme Donuts. and every other Doughnut shop in the country goes by donut. I think the only folks that go by doughnut are Hostess with those little choclate covered things.

Doughnuts is correct. Donuts came around when Dunkin Donuts used this spelling because it was cuter on their signs.
Peace!

Yes, there is a difference doughnut is correct and donut is lazy slang or a proprietary name.

ACTUALLY DOUGHNUTS IS RIGHT COZ DOUGHNUTS R MADE FROM DOUGH SO ACTUALLY DOUGHNUTS R RIGHT BUT DONUTS R CONVIENIENT TO PRONOUNCE THE WORD
THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THEM
THE ONLY DIFFERENCE IS THE WORD DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THEM.

It is doughnuts, however as with most bastardised english you can use whichever you feel like and people will understand you.

It's just the spelling and no, there isn't a difference.
The one spelling comes from the US Dictionary and the other is a universal spelling. That's about the only difference to it.
