In case you haven’t heard, there’s something called a Cronut being made daily in NYC. And, the donut/croissant hybrid is creating the kind of ridiculously long lines usually seen only at Disney World.
Explained adorably by Tipsy and Ponggo of the Googly Gooeys, the cute blue and pink blobs take you adorably through the baking process of this food craze. You should have line of people outside of your door in no time.
When a chef needs some culinary inspiration, and decides to start taking requests for ingredients from Facebook fans, stuff like The Donut Zinger happens.

Chef Bjorn, the owner of Artichoke Cafe & Bar, continues to take requests for frankenfood over on Facebook.

Regardless, it’s made for a very small demographic of future brides with a sick sense of humor, and a love of glazed donuts. And, does it come in a size 18?
