Fondant Fancy or Krispy Kreme Doughnut 18:59 - Nov 15 with 1366 views | Churchman | To lighten the mood and following on from thoughts of window cake, what are peoples thoughts on the above? Which would you have on that desert island given a choice? We don’t get to enjoy either at home, but I was always partial to a FF - especially the pink ones. Some years ago in America I was introduced to the Krispy Kreme doughnut, long before you could get them here. What a joyous moment. Ya basic D with icing on top. Still warm. Mmmm. The only time I’ve ever had them here though is when a tray of them was brought in at work if we were doing long hours on something. I think it’d have to be the KK Any other shouldn’t have, denied delights out there? |  | | |  |

Fondant Fancy or Krispy Kreme Doughnut on 19:37 - Nov 15 with 1295 views | WeWereZombies | It's Battenburg or nothing...unless I can get a bowl of rice pudding, or semolina, or sago, or tapioca. I don't mind a Scotch pancake or a crumpet either. Had a reasonable slice of apple crumble in IKEA this lunchtime. Cheesecake is another favourite. [Post edited 15 Nov 2024 19:37]

You mean both of them aren’t healthy? Well I’m shocked. |  | |  |

A KK doughnut has too much in it for my liking. A bit like Ben & Jerrys ice cream, just far too much going on. |  | |  |
Fondant Fancy or Krispy Kreme Doughnut on 20:14 - Nov 15 with 1196 views | wkj | I know its not good food, but a Krispy Kreme glazed in the microwave for 10-15 seconds with a nice dark coffee is something the Americans get consistently right. |  |

This is what goes in a fondant fancy https://realfood.tesco.com/recipes/fondant-fancies.html If that’s all you eat, forget a long life. But the odd one every so often? A little sugar rush treat? Is it so bad? Same wit( a KK doughnut. It’s just a form of bread. Don’t mow through the tray but the odd one on that desert island to brighten up the day as you work on your raft? |  | |  |

Despite working in Cheltenham for a day or two a week for a year or so around 2000, I never saw or tried one of those. Like to though! |  | |  |

Factory where they made them was just around the corner from my childhood home in Prestbury. The smell was incredible. |  |

I thought that purple nasties was snakebite? You don’t see that many people drink snakebite anymore. |  | |  |

"I thought that purple nasties was snakebite? " - Snakebite and Black. Not sure how much of it goes on now, but lots of places refuse to sell Snakebite. [Post edited 15 Nov 2024 20:59]

There’s a reason for that. Only had it once. Dear me, talk about feeling like your head was unscrewing. |  | |  |

It was a staple back in the day (89-92). Every place in ‘nam knew what it was, but in hindsight I realise we were being ripped off, as the pubs all put about 2 inches of blackcurrant in before any alcohol. Bloody lovely stuff though for a session. It slipped down a treat. [Post edited 15 Nov 2024 21:09]

A 'Mickey-Mouse' was another favourite around here when I was in my mis-spent yoof had a habit of making you throw up though. |  |

Never heard of it. The internet says it’s a Wimpy creation of warm doughnut, ice cream, chocolate Oreo cookie pieces and choc sauce. Oh yes, I’d mangle that alright. Looks disgustingly good. As a kid the ultimate treat at the local cafe after sausage beans and chips was a banana split. Perfection in a dish. Healthy too with that banana! Haven’t had one in years, sadly.
