The name itself tickled my curiosity. The design of the shop was super unique, too. The donuts were great. Although it was on the pricey side. But it's justified able because these are artisan donuts. Not the usual donat kampung style. The packaging was also designed really well The texture of the dough was perfect. Not too hollow, not too dense, a slight chewiness. The quality of their toppings ingredients was definitely on another level. Valrhona is my favourite. The thick chocolate was not too sweet, rich & velvety. The pistachio is pretty good, tasted like pistachio gelato. Tiramisu also nice, tasted like creamy mocha. The srikaya creme brulee was eggy & has crusty sugar topping at the top. Kurogoma mochi filled with sesame paste & chewy mochi. I will come back to try the other flavors! Too bad there was no seating for waiting area. There was a string line that forbid us to get a closer look to the donuts' display, which i think is a shame. The donuts display was not big/close enough for me to see the writing. So i think the design lay out didn't deliver well. Eye catching = yes, functional = no.
