“The honey notes from the Cristal pair well with the
ube mousse,” one of the brothers said. They also disclosed they have sold
more than five dozen of the doughnuts after it was unveiled. Lol, if I buy one,
I might probably not finish it in a day. May be the next day sha and after that, no more. Except someone deems it fit to buy for me.
