If you lived in SoCal back in the late 50's & 60's they used to have a mobile Donut delivery truck called Helm's Bakery.

That was the day's, fresh bottled milk delivered to your door and the bonus of the Helms Bakery.

Whenever I see an old panelwagon, I get hungry for a donut. Good memories.

my aunt recently confessed to my sister and i that after a couple of months of havin "higher than normal" bread and baked goods bills, she asked the helms man why? he told her that whenever we stopped him and he gave us our doughnuts, he added it to her bill!!! we thought he was just the nice doughnut man. i can remember that whistle coming from the next street over.

HDD, there is a truck identical to that right by my house and it belong to a place called Brew Bakers. They brew beer and bread. Very cool place. You can make you own brew in you own custom bottle there.

I remember those guys, the truck they drove in my neighborhood was a chevy panel truck with doors on the sides that opened up to expose the sweet cargo. Nice piece of California Trivia...

And remember the "whistle" of the Helms' Man? I'll never forget that, or the fact that the donuts were in big long drawers! I got my Maple Bar fix from our helms bakery man! I'm off to KK's now, thanks for the calories HDD!
