The donut is a collection of seven small bite-sized donuts that have each been coated in a sugary glaze. The donuts themselves are made of a yeast battery. The bite-sized donuts can be pulled out of the group individually, resulting in the item being named a pull-apart donut. The McDonald's Glazed Pull Apart Donut is available at an MSRP of $1.69 USD, and can be ordered either in-store, through the My McDonald's application, or through various third-party retailers such as [Uber Eats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/philadelphia-cream-cheese-debuts) and [DoorDash](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/doordash-for-business-meal-manager).
