Established in 1937, Southern Maid Donuts has become a beloved staple in Sherman, TX, known for its signature donuts that are often described as melting in your mouth. The brand is famously linked to Elvis Presley, who recorded the only commercial of his life for Southern Maid Donuts in 1954, featuring a catchy jingle that highlighted the freshness of their offerings.

In addition to their mouthwatering treats, Southern Maid Donuts holds a place in the Guinness Book of World Records for creating the largest donut, which weighed an impressive 74 pounds and measured 5 feet 9 inches in diameter. This commitment to quality and community is echoed in stories from loyal customers, like Bill Lagrone, who fondly recalls indulging in a dozen hot donuts during his youth.
