Donuts

Little Puffin shows how you can make a donut vending machine out of cardboard. It requires only a little soldering and no programming. But it still works like a proper vending machine, needing the right coin and all. Check out the video’s description for the materials.

State Bicycle Co.’s backpack is decked out in sprinkle-covered donuts, just like the one Homer snarfs down. The weatherproof Cordura bag offers an expandable roll-top, a reflective front panel, and pockets for a water bottle, a bicycle U-lock, and a padded one for a laptop.

Who says you need to make entire donuts to have donut hole treats? Nostalgia Electrics’ handy appliance makes 11 puffy cake treats at a time. Glaze ’em, and they’re donuts. Stick ’em on a stick and dip ’em and they’re cake pops. Includes a tool for injecting fillings too.

Dunkin Donuts gives us one more reason to stop at their drive-thru after going out on a bender, with this fried egg and bacon sandwich, stuffed inside glazed donut. Surprisingly, it has only 360 calories, thanks to its lack of cheese.

New York pastry chef Dominique Ansel has invented this epic new breakfast treat which combines the flakiness of a croissant with the sugary toppings, fillings and shape of a donut. One bakers dozen now, please!
