America's weirdest bakery made appropriately freaky Prince donuts

The passing of Prince has given brands an opportunity to mourn him with their logos

But as the patron saint of freaks, Prince Rogers Nelson belongs to the freaks — not to brands like Cheerios.

But what does make exquisite sense is for Voodoo Doughnuts, the Portland Oregon donut shop that riffs on bacon, Cap'n Crunch cereal, and formerly a Nyquil glaze, to commemorate Prince. 

Take a look at the beautiful creations below, which are being liked by thousands of people on Instagram

The donut shop — which is no stranger to creating commemorative donuts — will also be selling a raspberry-filled, purple creation for $0.99, the proceeds of which will go to a "Prince-inspired charity."

EugeneWeekly.com noted that there was some backlash from customers who pointed out the Prince donuts weren't vegan — the singer was a "committed vegan," according to PETA. Voodoo Doughnuts did tell customers they could be specially ordered vegan, however, and simply weren't prepared for Prince's death.

Either way, I bet they taste like purple.
