1st CHARCOAL CINNAMON SUGAR SOURDONUT
basket break bakehouse, Petaling Jaya
Unfilled charcoal brioche donut dusted in cinnamon sugar. This is the perfect example of how you don’t always need complicated or fancy toppings to make something Amazing. It’s a simple nut, but it’s so good. You need to warm this one up to fully enjoy it. (Actually please do try and warm up all of their sourdonuts before you consume. It’s so good that way). The exterior crisps up ever so slightly, giving way to a soft but pleasurably chewy sourdonut. The taste is more complex than a regular yeasted doughnut. There’s a slight tang from the sourdough and the cinnamon sugar seems to enhance that. It’s really, really good.
REALLY GOOD
2nd MAPLE ALMOND CRUNCH BOMBOLONI
Sugar and I, Subang Jaya
Heavenly! Sugar and I are currently our favourite place for bombolonis. The dough is just so soft and pillowy and they are so generous with the filling. I was almost afraid of breaking the bomboloni when I lifted it out of the box. Gently, gently does it!
4th KAYA PANDAN BOMBOLONI
Sugar and I, Subang Jaya
Pandan infused dough stuffed with rich kaya. And then the good folks at Sugar and I decided that’s not enough and so they jabbed a little stick of salted butter into the bomboloni. Mind you, that butter goes all the way down the bomboloni. So you get a bite of sweet kaya which is contrasted by the salty butter. Kinda genius.
5th RED VELVET RASPBERRY CHEESE BOMBOLONI
Sugar and I, Subang Jaya
Happy Valentine’s Day! I tried to be fancy and eat with a fork. Silly idea. Much more satisfying to bite into it and have raspberry cream all over my fingers and face.
7th SAMBAL IKAN BILIS
Sugar and I, Subang Jaya
Limited Time only for Merdeka and Malaysia Day. The OG. SnI’s version of our local favourite Burger Malaysia. This has always been a favourite at the kueh stalls.
8th TUNG KU KAI
Sugar and I, Subang Jaya
Limited Time only for Merdeka and Malaysia Day. Savoury bomboloni with Chinese braised chicken and mushroom. Very tasty!
9th CHICKEN MASALA
Sugar and I, Subang Jaya
Limited Time only for Merdeka and Malaysia Day. SnI decided to come up with a limited time only Merdeka box, featuring 3 bomboloni inspired by Malay, Chinese and Indian flavours. All very good.
10th VANILLA BEAN BOOLEE SOURDONUT
basket break bakehouse, Petaling Jaya
Filled with vanilla bean creme pat and topped with torched housemade marshmallow. We first discovered Basket Break during the pandemic when they were selling sourdonuts online from their home. They were good then, but we felt that the nutz could do with a bit of tweaking. Happy to see that they’ve managed to get a physical space now and their sourdonuts are even better than before!
11th MONSTER COOKIES BOMBOLONI
Sugar and I, Subang Jaya
Stuffed with a mixture of chocolate and their signature Belgian chocolate chip cookies. Wow, this was just delicious. Bite into that soft, fluffy dough and be rewarded with crunchy cookie bits swimming in thick, rich chocolate. Oy... my waistline cries.
12th NIKO NEKO MATCHA BOMBOLONI
Sugar and I, Subang Jaya
Strictly for matcha lovers. This is not one of those mild or delicate or “a hint of matcha” kinda flavour 😉.
13th LEMON GHOSTIE SOURDONUT
basket break bakehouse, Petaling Jaya
Their bestselling lemon curd cream sourdonut topped with a meringue ghostie. Spookified for the Halloween season. Also, my friends… I love you and I know you all know that my love for doughnuts is beyond legendary, but please… y’all gotta stop sending me doughnuts. This bear is starting to look as round as one already! 😅
14th LOTUS BISCOFF BOMBOLONI
Sugar and I, Subang Jaya
I love biscoff and on any other day I would be swooning over this. It is so good, but today this was overshadowed by the Monster Cookies. Nice try Lotus Biscoff.
15th MANDARIN YUZU
Nareo, Petaling Jaya
With some stabby-stabby action. New doughnut shop and apparently one of the founders worked 7 years in a well-known doughnut shop in Australia. Lucky us.
17th CRIME SCENE BOMBOLONI
Sugar and I, Subang Jaya
Cookies and cream filling. It’s that time of the year when doughnuts run amok.
18th BLOOD & GUTS BOMBOLONI
Sugar and I, Subang Jaya
Crème brûlée glaze and custard filling. It’s a bloody mess.
19th CHUNKY BISCOFF MOUSSE DOUGHNUT
APRONFOOLS, Subang Jaya
Not a flattering picture but a really good doughnut! Soft and fluffy and the biscoff filling was delicious!
20th NUTELLA MOUSSE FILLED DOUGHNUT
APRONFOOLS, Subang Jaya
There was so much filling in this doughnut that it was all over my face by the time I was done with it. Ok maybe slight exaggeration. But it did get messy (in a good way!) Also, I’m loving my handmade plate from Clay Expression 😁.
PRETTY GOOD
21st ALMOND BOUGHSTOCK
HALO, Petaling Jaya
Baked aged doughnut with crème d’amande and almond flakes.
22nd BOO BERRY
HALO, Petaling Jaya
Balsamic, mint and blueberry glaze with eyeball candy.
23rd TARO ATTAPCHEE
Sourbombe Bakery - Wisma Atria, Singapore
A bit on the fence with this one. It’s not offensive, but it wasn’t a love-at-fist-bite kinda situation as well. It did grow on me after a few chomps but with so many flavours to choose from, this would not have been my first choice.
24th BUTCHER’S KNIFE BOMBOLONI
Sugar and I, Subang Jaya
Belgian chocolate filling. Possessed. Also might I add, it was bold of Sugar and I to colour the topping this shade of cement gray 😅.
25th JACK SKELLINGTON BOMBOLONI
Sugar and I, Subang Jaya
Cosmic blueberry filling. Jack had a boo-boo and lost an eye. Things are not looking good for him. “looking good” Geddit? Geddit? I’ll see myself out now…
26th BAVARIAN CUSTARD FILLED DOUGHNUT
APRONFOOLS, Subang Jaya
Got a little smooshed during delivery but still super yummy. I still prefer the chunky biscoff but I wouldn’t complain if I had this in front of me.
27th APPLE PIE FILLED DOUGHNUT
APRONFOOLS, Subang Jaya
Like an apple pie but in doughnut form and covered in cinnamon sugar. I think the apple chunks could have been softer but other than that, this was good. Wasn’t too sweet as well.
28th BURNT BASQUE CHEESE
lola bySeraiGroup, Kuala Lumpur
Nice but had zero chance against the pastries.
29th MATCHA CRUMBLE DOUGHNUT
La Boheme Bakery @ Aeon Sunway, Petaling Jaya
It’s alright la. Might repeat if I’m in the mood but I won’t necessarily go running to get one.
30th PROSPERITY RABBIT
Krispy Kreme, Petaling Jaya
Happy Lunar New Year! Doughnut was ok. Soft and fluffy, and thankfully not as sweet as I expected.
