Cronuts by Gonuts Donuts

Again, I did a litte adventure to check who have the best Cronuts in Manila. I went now to Gonuts Donuts in SM San Lazaro, located in Manila. This was the only branch by Gonuts Donuts that is offering Cronuts to the market.

Gonut Donuts SM San Lazaro branch.

The store is offering several variety of Cronuts, so what I did was I chose the Blueberry and the Peach cream variant; take note that once you ordered from them, you need to wait for 5 minutes to serve the food, the price on the product is 75 pesos.



My impression? This is the first time that the dough of the Cronuts was firm — Unlike Country Style, there Cronuts is horrible.

The preparation & the ingredient on this was fine, no interesting stuff that you can expect though.

Thought all is fine, but their customer service is not good — not saying their staff are rude or something; but, they are lacking customer service skills on their crew. This is the first time that they don't offer Fork or Spoon to product — even you'll ask one they will just say that they do not have any knife in handy & just going to give you a piece of paper to hold the food. Really, I was shock when I heard it. Hope the management of Gonuts Donuts to that they can add Fork or Spoon if the customer is requesting, disssapointed on this.

If you going to rate it? The food is good but the customer service is a dissapointment.

Cronuts by Country Style

Another food establishment in Manila that offers Cronuts is Country Style, they have variety of Cronuts — Chocolate & Caramel.

My impression about their Cronuts is that is hard to chew; I mean, when you take the first bite, is like your chewing on old dough which stayed at the shelf for a week — I don't know if that the Cronuts that I have was on the shelf for quite sometime though or that is their preparation. The good thing though is that the filling is good as compared to Krispie Kreme's Cronuts which they are using plain Vanilla.

If you just like to taste their Cronuts definitely I'll recommmend it. You can try other food establishment in the market that offers Cronuts.

Cronuts by Krispy Kreme

After a month of searching where to get this one — A very popular food in the US, finally get one of this. Krispy Kreme is now offering this delicacies to the public, got one of this at Robinsons Place Magnolia in New Manila Quezon city.

Since this would be the first time that I will try Cronuts, maybe I'll add also an evaluation to know who offers the best Cronuts in town — French Baker and Le-Couere France are offering also this product to the market. So I bought two Cronuts, one would be a Strawberry, and Chocolate topping with the same filling which you can find on Dunkin Donuts Bavarian donuts.

So me and my friend took the first bite, all I can say is that where quite dissapointed at Krispy Kreme; the texture of the dough is apparent to those normal bakery at a price of 75 pesos and a Krispy Kreme branding; next, they just used a common syrup on their toppings — both Chocolate and Strawberry.



If you want to try Cronuts, I would recommend to try Le-Couere France besides Krispy Kreme.
