Strawberry Shortcake Croissant Donut

Strawberry shortcake was a popular Valentine’s Day flavor, but it appears Dunkin’ Donuts didn’t get that memo. But I guess their new Strawberry Shortcake Croissant Donut is better late than never.

The sugary treat features Dunkin’ Donuts’ classic glazed Croissant Donut with a strawberry buttercreme filling and it’s topped with white and strawberry icing drizzle.

Strawberry Shortcake Croissant Donut 2

The donut has 400 calories, 20 grams of fat, 12 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 25 milligrams of cholesterol, 300 milligrams of sodium, 50 grams of carbohydrates, 1 gram of fiber, 25 grams of sugar, and 5 grams of protein.

Soooo there’s Wheat Thins, Rice Thins, and now something that could’ve been called Potato Thins That Aren’t Potato Chips. Spud Thins could’ve been a good…I mean, horrible name. (Spotted by Kevin G at Walmart.)
