Homegrown F&B chain Creamier is best known for its ice cream and waffles, but it has now launched a new range of house-made doughnuts at its outlets islandwide. Called Donuts by Creamier, the range offers six sweet and savoury flavours.

THE FLAVOURS
According to Creamier’s co-founder Khoh Wan Chin, the brand is offering doughnuts as they are “comfort food” like ice cream. There are also plans to launch an all-day brunch concept later this month with savoury dishes at Creamier’s East Coast Road cafe.
We are tickled by its name (remember “mee siam mai hum?”), and this hum-less “laksa” doughnut comes with a chunky chicken filling that reminds us more of chicken curry than laksa. But it’s pretty fun to gnaw through the fluffy, slightly crispy fried doughnut to get to the lemak-enough filling (which we could do with more of).
Like the Cinnamon Sugar doughnut, this is just as addictive. The same ring doughnut is dipped in a simple sugar glaze, so it makes for a sweeter-than-usual treat, but still satisfying and charmingly nostalgic.
We find this the prettiest doughnut out of the six flavours. The choc-glazed ring is crowned with torched marshmallow fluff. It’s not as rustic as a classic s’more (which has chocolate and marshmallow sandwiched between graham crackers and toasted), though it makes for a nice cheat day dessert with the airy, whipped cream-like marshmallow.
