Today in posts about turkey-stuffed donuts



From the EVG inbox...

NEW YORK, Nov. 6, 2013 /PRNewswire/ — Zucker Bakery in the East Village (433 E. 9th St.) today unveiled a limited series of gourmet turkey-stuffed donuts to celebrate Thanksgivukkah – the convergence of Thanksgiving and Hanukkah, happening for the first time in over 100 years this November. The donuts will come in four flavors, ranging from savory to sweet:

• Spiced pumpkin donut with TURKEY and GRAVY filling ($5)
• Spiced pumpkin donut with TURKEY and CRANBERRY filling ($5)
• Spiced pumpkin donut with CRANBERRY SAUCE filling ($3.50)
• Sweet potato donut with TOASTED MARSHMALLOW cream filling ($4)

Now on sale through the end of the year...

Nicknamed "stuff-ganiyot" — a play on the Hebrew word for donuts, suffganiyot (suf-gan-ee-oat) — the donuts are the brainchild of Zucker Bakery founder Yaniv Zohar and friend Gil Levy of ECommerce Partners, the web firm that designed and launched the bakery's e-commerce website.

Get free samples of these Thanksgivukkah-inspired donuts on Friday, November 8 between 4-6 PM at Zucker Bakery.

  3. The Japanese chain "Italian Tomato" which used to have a storefront on St Marks Place had donuts stuffed with potato salad. But that was the Japanese idea of Western food, which is always weird (and almost always involves mayonnaise).

  4. I am so buying these for thanksgiving. In fact, I wish I had a bigger family so it would be even more fun. Possibly better than a turducken, which I've been forbidden to consider in place of turkey, even though my cousin makes them in a butcher shop in Georgia. Maybe I will bring them into work for my goyisher coworkers who got excited about a babka. I can't believe how thrilled I am for this weirdness.
