Tim Hortons' Newest Food Products Are Inspired by Churros

— February 3, 2017 — Lifestyle
Tim Hortons is now offering churro donuts for a limited amount of time across Canada.

The brand has once again started its annual 'Roll Up The Rim' promotion, where people who purchase its coffee or other warm drinks are able to win free items that include drinks, donuts or larger prizes like cars. With the inevitable publicity that comes with the annual promotion, the brand is offering churro donuts and Timbits as well. The Mexican dessert-inspired snacks come in cruller shapes, are dusted with cinnamon and sugar and are filled with caramel.

By adding unique flavors into its snack collections at a time when the brand hits some of its highest sales, Tim Hortons is taking full advantage of its Roll Up The Rim promotion.
