Mad Over Donuts - M.O.D {Food Tasting and Review}

When i got an invite from Mad Over Donuts, i thought whether i should go or not. Because i never tasted donuts in my life and never thought of buying it even if i pass the outlet/store. I always thought it would be more sugary, rubbery, hard and very sweet. Then i had asked my friends +Lubna Karim and +Satrupa dash , they said it will be soft and yummy and has less sweet. They also said try once you will love it.Finally i decided i will try donuts atleast once in my lifetime. And you know what, when i tasted it i completely gone mad over donuts.

We food bloggers were invited for an exclusive gathering at Mad Over Donuts, a Singaporean gourmet donut brand at their recently opened store in Koramangala at 80 feet road. The company already has 46 stores all over India. They currently have a strong foothold in metro cities, with expansion plans of more than double store count by the end of 2013. The company has a unique donut theatre concept. The stores, present dominantly in malls, airports and high streets, are specially designed to showcase the donut-making process and provide a multi-sensory experience for customers.

We food bloggers were given a short and sweet demo of donut decoration by the chef. My blogger buddies +Deepasri kar and +Jayashree Mudaliar tried their hands on donut decoration.
