The new donuts are called Pizza Cioccolata and pay homage to Brooklyn’s large Italian community.
The small palm sized pizza donuts are topped with chocolate, marshmallows and strawberry sauce.
The pizza donuts come in two varieties, Pizza Chocolate and Pizza Strawberry
Pizza Chocolate
The Pizza Chocolate donuts are topped with toasted marshmallows and feature a chewy chocolate base with chocolate ganache filling and chocolate sauce. The whole thing is covered in a generous dusting of white icing sugar.

The Pizza Strawberry donuts feature strawberry chocolate sauce topped with a drizzling of white chocolate. The donuts are available for 194 yen (USD$1.65) at your local Mister Donuts.

The Taste Test
The big question is how do they taste?
The first thing that grabs your attention is the cute packaging. The pizza donuts come in packaging that is very reminiscent of a takeout pizza box. We love it!
The Pizza Chocolate tastes really good. The donut is very flat much like a pizza and the chocolate is deep and rich. The consistency of the donut is very reminiscent of pizza dough with its chewy texture and the marshmallows a perfect match for the cheese found on any pizza.
The Pizza Strawberry is a lot sweeter than the chocolate above but is still very good. We liked the red strawberry chocolate sauce which reminded us of the red tomato paste found on pizza.

The Pizza Coiccolata Donuts were an interesting experience and we highly recommend you give them a try if you are in Japan. Hurry as they will only be available for a limited time.

I read "pizza" and "chocolate" and almost choked. Then I read, "The Pizza Chocolate tastes really good." Promise? Really, really promise? :)
ReplyDeleteHi Ru! I promise it is really good. It doesn't taste like a pizza, but the texture and look is very much like a pizza. I'm sure you would love it as a chocolate fan :)
DeleteI think I'd go with the pizza strawberry doughnut! Looks delicious (and unhealthy)!
ReplyDeleteDo you know how long is 'a limited time'?

They were pretty good. A limited time is usually a short time in Japan but I still see they are on the menu. Give them a try if you spot a Mister Donut, which isn't difficult to do in Japan :)
DeleteThat looks so yummy and sinful!
ReplyDeleteThanks Lina! They were really good :)
