Friends Doughnuts (Krispy Kreme) By @Cinabar

Friends Doughnuts (Krispy Kreme)



I love the Friends series. I have watched every episode and am currently watching it a second time, enjoying seeing Spectre experience it for the first time. I don’t know how he hasn’t seen it before, but he has no idea where the whole Ross and Rachel thing is going, which is very entertaining. Somehow it is Friend’s thirtyth birthday, and to celebrate, Krispy Kreme has brought our celebration doughnuts. I picked up a box of three to try. They have cool names, too.

We Were On A Coffee Break

This is a very cool-looking doughnut, complete with a white chocolate disc with the Central Perk logo. It is a ring doughnut, but there is a dollop of vanilla frosting in the gap, and the main doughnut is coffee-glazed. The sponge was soft, and the icing was lightly crisp. The flavour is absolutely lovely and reminded me of coffee cream. Not too strong, but sweet and delightful. We need more coffee-flavoured doughnuts in the world. 

How you doin’?

The doughnut is very pretty purple with a yellow frame made of icing. It is made to look like Monica’s door and named after Joey’s favourite chat-up line. The doughnut is very fruity; the main icing is passion fruit, and the yellow is mango. This gives the doughnut a wonderful tropical feel, perfect for a nice, warm evening. 

Trifle

Trifle gets a special mention in one of the Friends episodes when they try and make the classic British dessert, but thankfully, unlike the episode where the recipe got mixed up, there is no beef sautéed with peas and onions as a layer in this doughnut. There is, however, a lovely filling of strawberry custard and chocolate sprinkles. This one is a bit more of a classic flavour, but still a yummy addition to the set.
