Dum Dums Donutterie (Shoreditch)

• Yumdoughs the world is going crazy for whatever variety and mix of the most indulgent treat on the planet they can get their teeth into
• At Dum Dum Donutterie in London's Shoreditch the fruits of their labour are not deep fried in an impossibly dank vat of oil
• The resulting doughnut is lighter and fluffier
• Whether it is a traditional variety or one of the semi croissant doughnuts
• Eating doughnuts) with too much piling on the calories and too little not achieving the taste people associate with them
• Body beautiful celebrities like Peter Andre and Tom Daly are professed fans
• Having tried a few out and taken a box home for my family here is the low down
• Custard filled with a crunchy caramel glaze this is the shop's best seller and is a bit like biting into a custard toffee apple
• Layered with raspberry preserve and butter creme topped with fresh raspberries it is a fresh
• If you like your nuts this almond creme with fondant and fresh pistachios will be just the thing
• The fondant flavouring and colour is attained by using only strawberry puree and lemon juice
• The next biggest seller is this cronut layered with alternating croissant dough and chocolate croissant dough
• Filled with chocolate butter creme and decorated with dark chocolate
• A real winner for any chocolate fans is this rich chocolate ganache with hazelnut topping
• My favourite is this banoffee pie inspired doughnut
• I know that these doughnuts are healthier baked not fried and therefore you can't expect them to be as sinful a doughnut as
• They were still tasty baked goods are never a bad thing
• As if there is any such thing
• It's hard to imagine these morsels from heaven have anything to do with the heavy fried pieces of dough I grew up with
• Each of these is baked (the "
• The raspberry is a must try tart
• Got there at 5pm today really wanted to try the strawberry cronuts but they were sold out so had zebra cronut and my partner had a yum yum
• My zebra cronut well size was big its had a nice sugar coating but wasn't as crisp as cocomaya the chocolate mousse was delicious it really did taste nice but cocomaya still win over
• My partner yumyum was yumyy with butter scotch cream and the pastry was sweet but not overly sweet and didn't feel greasy
• Potentially the best doughnut/cronut in the world or at least the best one Ive ever eaten
• They are worth the hype and are a must try
• Its made from layers of chocolate and normal croissant dough (hence the name) and filled with chocolate butter creme
• Chocolate ganache and sprinkled with dark chocolate flakes on top
• Oh and they are always served with a smile
• Dum Dums Donutterie at Box Park is the best place for doughnuts in London in my opinion
• Inside it is pretty small but waiting for you is a collection of amazing doughnuts
• You can either chose a plain doughnut with a fancy topping or go for one with a tasty filling and icing on top
• They also make these fancy half croissant/half doughnuts which are also pretty yummy
• All the doughnuts are also baked
• The guys inside the shop are always really friendly
• I've liked their maple pecan doughnut but I didn't think it was one of the best in London
• Their doughnuts are baked and so a bit healthier but also a bit more boring than the traditional ones
• I thought these were a bit dry and disappointing
• Nice cronut but I wished it was a bit crunchier
• I had the tarte tatin which is a cronut with Apple filling and dusted in icing sugar
• The filling was tasty and the dough has a nice consistency
• Dum Dums Donutterie is extremely easy to walk past
• Their sign blends in with the rest of the shops and there&rsquo
• As the doughnuts on offer at Dum Dums are very special
• These guys pride themselves on the fact that all their doughnuts are baked instead of fried
• It was Capital One Cup final day and I was on my way to see my cousin
• Seeing as his beloved Chelsea were about to take on Tottenham I figured I&rsquo
• The six I chose (this is all from memory so I may be wrong) were as follows
• And seeing as there were only five of the standard &ldquo
• Pistachio and banoffee were quite nice but it&rsquo
• ) was what you could call just a standard doughnut with some pink flavoured icing on top&hellip
• The Chocolate Creme was where I had a slight sweetness overload
• Had me wondering if I was ever going to look at a Krispie Kreme doughnut the same way again
• Then there was the Cinnadum doughnut
• This little fella had all three of us agreeing that he was the king of the box
• The cinnamon was front and centre the second you sank your teeth in
• Ve stuffed yourself with The Orange Buffalo
• Dum Dum Doughnuts is another in a long list which have opened in the last couple of years as part of the doughnut/cronut revolution
• Maybe so but there is a reason to the madness
• The added bonus is that when Dum Dums bakes the doughnut it gets an &ldquo
• I approached with caution and whilst understanding the logic
• ) I can say that the doughnuts are rather good
• Though understanding that the cooking process does come with health benefits
• I do question if it is worth sacrificing that iconic fried doughnut fluffiness
• A doughnut is a doughnut no matter how you cut it and it is meant to be a guilty pleasure after all
• What has got me hooked is their delicious array of flavours which makes choosing just one always difficult
• Personal favourites are the strawberry and cream (which tastes as good as it looks) and the Yum Yums which I rate as their best item
• The Zebra is probably considered their signature and for good reason and almond creme and pistachio are also tasty
• We got a Zebra basically a cronut with chocolate and a couple of snowballs the owner was nice enough to drop an extra couple in for free which was a bonus
• They filling to pastry ratio is perfect and they are never too sweet
• The pistachio cronut is one that everyone must try
• Though these were still delicious
• The 'lightly sprayed with oil and then baked method' is great for producing a lighter dough
• A healthier version but it takes away from the expected texture of a crispy edge and leaves me with an unexpected but yummy iced bun in my mouth
• Where fluffy dough oozes out a seemingly never ending amount of gorgeous raspberry jam as if it were Mary Poppins' handbag
• A brown cro dough stuffed with layers of Nutella
• Surrounded in a thin layer of sugar and topped with chocolate icing to fix whole hazelnuts into place
• If only there was a doughnut in this Donutterie
• The doughnuts there are baked instead of fried
• I guess that is probably the very reason it gained popularity so quickly
• S freshly fried to golden brown and finished up with a beautiful glaze
• The amount of fat and calories in a typical doughnut are a complete red flag
• J brought back almost their whole selection for me to try with help of course
• The chocolate(zebra) cronut tasted amazing the flavors were so mouthwatering and the crunchiness of the pastry was so good as well
• Boxpark in Shoreditch is a great place to be at
• Especially now that the sun has graced us with its presence after aeons of rain
• Would be great if they were warmed before being served
• The crunch of the baked pastry with that dusted sugar
• Who else agree with me that this is indulgence taken to a whole new level
• I remember when the idea of cronut was first launched
• Needless to say I decided that it was a cheat day and went all in for their famous Crone
• Tried their Belgian Chocolate one which was amazing but I will say this it was quite as task for me to finish it
• The quantity is sufficient for two people
• The server was really helpful and was also quite friendly when I asked him about their Dubai branch
• I think I still prefer the traditional doughy and fluffy doughnut with sinful fillings
• So I had this mini custard doughnut with chocolate ganache and pistachio nuts toppings
• Healthy light doughs with addictive toppings and flavors
• Nutella cronut is generously filled and of super taste
• Really tasty donut with icecream combo
• We heard the doughnuts here were really good
• T very impressed with the display
• The pastry was dry and the inside literally tasted like medicine
• The process was super easy
