The idea for doh’hut came from a road trip down the west coast of the USA where I was inspired by all the food trucks and street food. I just had to think of an idea which was ‘British’ and something a little different so I could stand out from the crowd.

Donuts it was! After thinking back to my childhood and days of a student buying packs from Morrisons every other day, with classics like raspberry jam, I thought what’s more British than a Raspberry Jam Donut?
