"Zen donuts", which became a hot topic as "Popular with Shirokane Madam", were discovered at an event near the office of the En-eating editorial department. I had a snack.


Zen donuts are "baked donuts" made without frying. It is said that it is handmade by a pastry chef without using extra food additives and sticking to the taste of Japanese ingredients.

This time, I bought three types: "Sky Plain", which is said to be the most popular, "Yu Warabimochi" with a "Staff Recommended" plate, and "Autumn Chestnut" which seems to be autumn. The one-character kanji that is attached to each taste is shining in the package. It looks like you'll be happy with the souvenirs.


First, let's start with "plain". Sometimes called "baked donuts", it looks like a round cake. When you put it in your mouth, the scent of honey spreads softly. Take a break with the simple taste of hot cakes eaten at a coffee shop.


"Chestnuts" are baked with cut chestnuts. It doesn't have big fruits in it, but you can feel the presence of chestnuts. The size does not interfere with the texture and texture of the dough, and it may be just right.


And the most favorite of the three types, "warabimochi". Warabimochi is contained in the dough, and it seems that the surface is topped with soybean flour. The fluffy warabimochi texture is fun and accentuates the fluffy dough. Isn't it the most "Japanese" taste?


In addition, it seems that there are unique flavors such as "An Matcha Azuki", "Snow Soy Milk White Sesame", and "Gentake Charcoal Black Bean" which was unfortunately sold out. I'm also worried about other tastes ...

Zen donuts are a popular store that has been ranked number one in the Rakuten market donut ranking for 40 consecutive weeks, but now it seems that they are mainly opening stores at special events and selling at the online shop "CONCENT". But in the online shop, the words "SOLD OUT" are sloppy. If you see it at an event, you may buy it.
