Popular Post wayned Posted October 22, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted October 22, 2013 I went to Tesco in Singburi yesterday. There is a Dunkin Donut shop in the mall. They had a special on a new chocolate donut filled and covered with chocolate, so I tried one. I was surprised that was really full of creamy chocolate filling, but that wasn't the biggest surprise! When I started eating it is was suddenly hit with a month full of chocolate laced with chilli. I asked the clerk and she said that both of two for their new chocolate donuts have chilli mixed in the filling. Where else in the world but Thailand would you get a chocolate chilli donut. Yuk!! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToddWeston Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Somebody picked some up and brought them home, I was being sneaky and took a nibble, I nearly died I asked the family and I think they're pretending that they like them they are truly yucky. What's next chilli toothpaste ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrilled Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Yeah,and be careful of mr donut also.Thai people have some strange taste buds.I just get regular glazed or the chocolate frosted.No problems there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Jingthing Posted October 23, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted October 23, 2013 (edited) Chocolate and chili are a match made in heaven! Consider the dark Mexican mole sauce ... Also Mexican hot chocolate drink is sometimes made with hot chilies. Chilies originated in the Americas. They know! Seriously, they match excellently. I can't speak for the donuts. I would question the quality of the ingredients in those. Edited October 23, 2013 by Jingthing 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayned Posted October 23, 2013 Author Share Posted October 23, 2013 I agree that a mole sauce fixed properly is delicious, not to be found in Thailand. But I draw the line at a "surprise" mole filled chocolate donut (doughnut for the spelling brigade) for breakfast! Yuk, Yuk and another big Yuk!! Chicken mole, great, but donut filled with mole, unbelievable! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazk Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 tried the doughnuts my self and loved them also a fan of chilli chocolate bars i think the doughnuts the op is referring to are the new charcoal ones 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ignis Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 taste is different here, still after so many years here cannot get why mixed fruit must have red kidney beans in, or corn, I do like both but not in with sweet mixed fruits, still pull them out as dogs like anything I eat so think there getting same. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToddWeston Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Agreed lots of what seems strange turn out to be an amasing complement - strawberry's and black pepper, drop of balsamic vinegar on vanilla ice cream, but charcoal doughnuts laced with chilli hmmmm I'll take a miss, I asked the Thai family again and now I'm getting honest answers - disgusting. My only other gripe with DD is the staff they hire with a voice like a fog horn who usually waits until I'm steps away to blurt out some none sense and scares the life out of me, it's not the doughnuts that will kill me it's a cardiac arrest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hkt83100 Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Donuts should be called Do-nots anyway. Do they come including insulin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drdoom6996 Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Yeah for sure, Dunkin and Mr Donut are not as good as in our home countries. However Krispy Kreme are just the same as in our home countries. When I go to Bangkok They have all 3 within sight of each other in Paragon. Mr Donut and Dunkin have no business. Even the Thais won't eat them. But you have to wait in line 10 minutes at Krispy Kreme. If Krispy Kreme would just have stores in a few places besides Bangkok. They'd put the rest out of business.

drdoom6996 Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Donuts should be called Do-nots anyway. Do they come including insulin? Neither does the booze you drink. We don't need a lecture. I'm 183 cm, and 75 kilos, and have been off the sauce for 5 years. And eat what I please, thank you. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoshowJones Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 'Mister Donut' gets my vote (without the chilli) Both Mr Donut and Dunkins Donuts have went a bit crazy with their prices, better to buy from Tesco, their donuts are cheap and very good.

yourauntbob Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 I enjoyed them. When we were in Belgium this summer they had spicy chocolate as well. It wasnt in donuts but was pretty much the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Discover Excellence Chili - a unique and sophisticated taste experience from Lindt’s Maîtres Chocolatiers. This harmonious combination of Lindt’s finest aromatic dark chocolate with the well balanced spice of premium red chili will exhilarate your taste buds.

MrBrad Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 And when I asked why they offered for sale only the "charcoal" varieties, I was told that it was a promotion. All of their other, better-deluxe donuts have been out of sight lately. They used to have some very sinful but scrumptious flavor combinations. But the charcoal varieties are not at all appealing, in my estimation. I reckon I will just have to go without until the charcoal promotion expires. As for the pending heart attack: all things in moderation, even donuts and McDonalds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rotary Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 I hear rumors that they are planning a new sales program for the cut out donut centers with spicy icing. They will be called "Hot Holes". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dao16 Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Mexicans go nuts with the chili. Popcorn with chili and lime at the movies, chili in beer with citrus.....seriously spicy beer! A spicy donut sounds gross, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
