Dropped by the favourite coffee spot and it is always exciting to see how they have been offering some bakes that are not part of its usual line-up of the late. Skimmed through the menu and managed to find the Scallion & Cream Cheese Filled Donut during our more recent trips there — whilst Brawn & Brains Coffee had been serving up different variations of their donuts featuring quite a good selection of flavours, most of the flavours do seem to surround around more sweet and dessert-y flavour profiles. The offering of the Scallion & Cream Cheese Filled Donut pretty much stood out to us quite a fair bit as such; this being a savoury donut that is unlike the other flavours that they have been offering thus far.

The Scallion & Cream Cheese Filled Donut takes the form of a Bomboloni which is the Italian-style filled donut — very much the same as what one would expect out of their other variations of donuts here. With that being said, considering how the Scallion & Cream Cheese Filled Donut is a savoury item, the donut itself does come rolled in less sugar crystals and only on the underside. Digging into the donut, the donut comes well filled with cream cheese — the cream cheese carrying a smooth, luscious and creamy texture while not being too heavy with the slight tang and the hints of dairy. The addition of scallions provided an extra note of flavours — the fillings of the donut can be described to taste like something pretty similar to sour cream and onions; all that while the donut remains all fluffy and light. Not usually a fan of savoury donuts and we would probably still find ourselves craving for the Kaya-filled donut more the next time we are going for a donut here, though this version of a savoury donut still works out very well for those looking for savoury donuts out there.
