New Coop Summer trio indulgent doughnut finds

I have always wanted to try the new coop Millionaire’s Salted Caramel Ring but had doubts.
One day I decided to try and and it was sold out which was a good sign.
The staff told me to come back the next day as they are freshly made early in the morning.
Went again a few days later and there were two left.
I let the guy in front go first and he picked the Triple chocolate and the Millionaires salted caramel donut so asked him which one was better and he said the salted caramel for sure.
I was definitely not disappointed because the donut was really fresh and you can see it from the picture that it was nice and white with no oil seeping in from the edges.
The caramel filling was spot and not too sweet as well as the icing.
Basically a perfect treat with tea or coffee. 
Money well spent and it was only half the price of a KK donut that was not fresh and ruined my day.
Well done coop and I'm planning to try the strawberry pavola doughnut next!!! 
Again its always hits and misses at Coop.





Millionaire’s Salted Caramel Ring – a ring doughnut filled with salted caramel and topped with caramel icing, biscuit pieces and a chocolate drizzle.

Strawberry Pavlova Jam Ball doughnut.

After that satisfying Millionaires salted caramel donut from Coop I decided to try the Strawberry pavola doughnut ball from the same series.
Basically it is a jam donut topped with strawberry icing, meringue pieces and freeze dried strawberries.
Overall it wasn't bad but the jam filling is in the middle  which is different to the ring donut so you get a different ratio of filling,  icing to doughnut.
Not bad for a pound considering that they are freshly made in the morning. 


Triple Chocolate Ball Doughnut which is filled which chocolate and topped with chocolate icing and golden star sprinkles.
Finally found an instaworthy triple choc donut with equally distributed star sprinkles and choc chips from @coopfoods
They didn't have the regular bakery bags so had to use the long baguette bags which I had to skillfully put the donut in the bag without the icing touching the paper or my donut would be ruined for photos.
Then I had to carry it carefully so the icing didn't stick.

Finally got it home and ate it asap.
Overall nice but it didn't really need the chocolate filling as it was too much or perhaps a different filling would have been nicer.
The funny thing was, there was a label saying it could be cheaper because of the tax but the guy at the till was saying it costs £1.50 when it was only £1.


Overall, I was happy that I tried all three setting me back at £3 because I actually wasted £2.20 on a donut from KK which turned out to be rancid! 
To summarize, two out of the three doughnuts were good so not bad!
