The newest bakery creations from Tim Hortons include a sweet Strawberry Dip Donut, as well as a Strawberry Cheesecake Muffin and Strawberry Cheesecake Donut. The former is the brand's take on a vanilla dipped donut, but with a bright pink strawberry-flavored icing and rainbow sprinkles on top. As for the Strawberry Cheesecake Donut, this tasty treat is essentially a Boston Cream, but with strawberry fondant and cheesecake crumbles on top. The new Strawberry Cheesecake Muffin is similar to its donut counterpart in that it consists of a strawberry-flavored muffin studded with real strawberry pieces and filled with a creamy cheesecake center. All three strawberry-inspired treats are available nationwide for a limited time.
