The Voodoo Doughnut Pothole doughnut is making its way to participating locations as a decidedly humorous treat that draws inspiration from roads in the springtime for delicious results. The donut starts off with a yeast ring that's cooked to perfection before being filled with a Bavarian cream and dipped in chocolate. The donut is then topped with ample pieces of crushed chocolate sandwich cookies and a few stripes of yellow icing to give it the appearance of a crumbling roadway.
The Voodoo Doughnut Pothole doughnut is being offered at participating locations now through Sunday, June 1, 2025 only and can be picked up in-store or ordered online. The donut is arriving alongside the Churro Cheesecake doughnut that offers a new take on the classic Latin dessert.
