The perfect summer Starbucks dessert is not an icy blended drink -- it’s a carnival-styled deep fried coffee treat. Starbucks served up some delicious deep fried goodies at the San Diego Fair this summer. This is a fun way to infuse sugar, caffeine and a satisfyingly crunchy dessert into your summer.
The Starbucks dessert was served in the form of deep fried balls of coffee placed on a stick and dusted with icing sugar. The dish was then topped with a scoop of whipped cream for a smooth textural finish.
The dough-like ball filled with ground coffee and tossed into a deep fryer was certainly a crowd-pleaser. The caffeine-infused treat will have coffee-lovers everywhere hoping Starbucks adds this dessert to its regular menu.
