One of the most highly mentioned topics in the latest local food scene is the filled donuts from TWO SONS COFFEE. The donuts are only available twice a week; Tuesday and alternate Fridays and Sundays.
As I happened to get a day off today, I decided to join the bandwagon and tried the donuts for myself. I got San Diann to join me so that we can have more varieties to share. They offer different flavors on different days. The flavors would only be revealed on IG story an hour before the sale.
I got to TWO SONS COFFEE an hour before they started selling the donuts since I had completed all my errands for the day. San Diann arrived about half an hour later. I got myself a cup of Latte and a Peanut Butter Brownie while watching drama series on my iPad.
Latte | B$5.00
I had requested less foam for my coffee so that my coffee would stay warm longer. This was what I was being taught if I would like my coffee to stay warm longer. Not sure how true was that but it was worth a shot. I liked their Latte. Both the coffee and milk were well balanced.
Peanut Butter Brownie | B$3.30
As donuts would only be available from 1PM, I got myself a piece of their Peanut Butter Brownie to try. It came with a big dollop of peanut butter in the centre of the brownie. The brownie was pretty tough on the crust but chewy enough on the inside. Both the sweetness and texture were good for my liking. This is definitely one of the best brownies that I had so far.
This was only a quarter of the queue when the donuts started selling. I queued for about 10 minutes or so before it was my turn. The cafe started to get a bit stuffy and humid as the crowd gets bigger.
All customers were limited to three pieces of donuts per person. The flavors in store today were Halloween themed. In the picture were Worms & Dirt, Bloody Mummy and White Chocolate Latte.
The green frosted donut on the top left was Worms & Dirt. It was topped with green colored sugar glazing, crushed Oreos and a Haribo worm. The donut was chocolate filled on the inside. I quite like the chocolate filling as it wasn’t overly sweet as compared to the glazing.
Unfortunately, I wasn’t very impressed with their Bloody Mummy and White Chocolate Latte due to the sugary glazing. Bloody Mummy came with raspberry filling on the inside and it wasn’t very sweet. The filling wasn’t a lot though. White Chocolate Latte was an ordinary donut with white chocolate glazing drizzled on the top.
I do have to agree with others about the soft, fluffy and pillow like texture of the donuts. I can see how soft the donuts were as San Diann moved the donuts in a better position for pictures. Despite I wasn’t keen of the flavors, the texture of the donuts did impress me.
So, do I like the donuts? Well, I would say that the flavors they had in store today weren’t my cup of tea. I was looking forward to their Chocolate Orange filling but it was unavailable. San Diann agreed too that this was his least favorite flavors offered comparatively to the ones he had before.
