LANTERN DONUTS  X  JAMES SPRAGUE SIGNATURE COLLABORATION 

In 2024, James Sprague shocked the world and the fitness community when he won the CrossFit Games. At 22 years old, James was the youngest male athlete ever to win that prestigious event — earning him the title of "The Fittest Man on Earth". James now has a huge following on his Instagram, YouTube channel, and other social media accounts where he shares his fitness journey, workout tips, and his faith. Most recently James earned his three stripes and joined the Adidas roster.

James's dad was hugely influential in his life and helped him tremendously in his transformative years. He has fond memories of he and his dad enjoying mint chocolate chip ice cream as a treat together, and he wanted a donut that took him back to those moments with his dad.

Our chef here at Lantern Donuts was excited to help recreate this fond memory in donut form. So, leveraging spearmint and a delicious Belgian chocolate, our chef created this exceptional signature donut for James Sprague. And on first taste test, it took him right back to those moments as a kid. We started with our delicious raised brioche donut, created with all-organic ingredients including glyphosate-free organic flour which is so important for health. We then dipped that donut in a Belgian chocolate glaze, and finished it with a mint icing striped pattern, and a special mint sugar crunch our chef made in-house.

James's wife Danica discovered us here at Lantern, and as a functional nutritionist, she is extremely careful with what she recommends, as she helps craft James' nutrition program and food intake. Danica makes sure that as high performance athlete, everything James consumes is as clean as possible which is critical to get right, since James competes regularly on the world stage as a Champion CrossFit athlete. James likes to say that Lantern Donuts are "wife approved". Lantern Donuts are the only ones he can enjoy guilt-free as a part of his extremely regimented workout routine.

And that's because Lantern Donuts are clean and natural (as well as being delicious). We use organic and local ingredients, and fry our donuts in expeller-pressed organic coconut oil for those healthy fats and sugars that are free of seed oils, preservatives, pesticides, or any artificial dyes, colors, or flavors.

You can workout, get fit, and have a delicious donut and feel good about it. Please enjoy this delicious collaboration with James Sprague. Available all January 2025.

James Sprague is a household name in the CrossFit world and beyond and his story is an inspiration to many. If you're getting started with your fitness journey this January, hopefully he (and this donut) are an inspiration to you. As this recent article put it: "Whether you’re struggling with self-doubt or dreaming of your own health comeback, James’ story proves that transformation is possible — starting with a decision, and strengthened every day by consistent steps forward. As James says best, “Be where your feet are. Win each day. Let God do the rest.”"
