Creating Dunkin’s Next Donut

Posted by Sara Schaefer 03/20/2009
 

So, people send us stuff. Lots of free random stuff. One example: a giant cardboard hand (more on that later). And today: a free dozen Dunkin' Donuts plus decorating items to make our own new flavor of donut! Apparently it's all part of Dunkin' Donuts contest, "Create Dunkin's Next Donut." There's a website where you can go create your own new flavor of donut, but we decided to go rogue and make our new donut using items from the NBC Commissary. Here is what we came up with - please let us know in the comments which one you think is our strongest competitor!

1. POPCORN DONUT

I'm not going to lie - this was scrumptious.

See four other completely ORIGINAL donut creations, after the break!

2. BANANA-IN-A-HOLE DONUT

Intern Frank tasted it for us:

I don't think he liked it very much.


3. SUSHI DONUT

Intern Andrew did the honors:

He said it wasn't half bad!


4. DONUTINI

Cory LOVED this. I think I heard him saying "Olive this donutini!"


5. DECONSTRUCTED KING CAKE

It's my artistic take on the traditional Mardi Gras cake made famous in New Orleans and elsewhere. Pretty brilliant if you ask me.

Which one do you think has the strongest chance of becoming a new Dunkin' Donut?
