Waitrose Morningside is now stocking the supermarket’s combination of the yum yum and the doughnut: the yumdough.
The £1.49 yumdough has taken the best features of both pastries to make a sweet, fluffy treat with tasty, gooey filling, wrapped up in flavoured fondant.
The yumdough is now available from the bakery counter at Waitrose Morningside and comes in four delicious flavours; chocolate & orange, lemon, butterscotch and raspberry & vanilla.
Waitrose launched the yumdough last year at just 40 branches but this is the first time it has been available in Edinburgh.
David Lincoln, branch manager of Waitrose Morningside said:- “Our customers love to try something new and we know they’ll love this combination of their two favourite bakery treats.
“The dough has 144 layers and gooey pockets of fillings in four different flavours, from zingy lemon to rich chocolate and orange fondant.
“We’re confident the yumdough will be a hit with Waitrose customers in Morningside.”
