The Kwonut

Today our HOTT Crew sampled the Croissant Donut from Dunkin Donuts for the very first time. And like the Croissant Donut, our hottie above is solid and well built. Not a dainty affair like the French counterpart, both the Croissant Donut and our hottie today have a beefier, more robust build.

And how was the Croissant Donut? Well, to be honest it was like eating a slightly denser and chewier Krispy Kreme glazed yeast donut. We really didn't detect any buttery bouquet as one would with a classic croissant. The finish (after the donut had been swallowed) was a pervasive sugar syrup sensation. It's a fine donut, yet the price tag of $2.49 is overpriced for comparable items from other donut purveyors. We've begun referring to it as the Kwonut (Kwahsant + Donut = Kwonut).
