I had one.
It was a doughnut (sorry, 'donut').
I don't know what all the fuss is about. I mean, apart from Homer Simpson who would normally get excited about doughnuts? Why on Earth would you queue up to buy one?
I reckon they've had a very clever advertising campaign where they pay people to rave to everyone they know and the whole thing just spreads. Kind of like the people who get paid to read certain books on trains. Excuse me while I now run and hide from RedRover

I'm smack bang in the middle of them.
I am about 5 mins away from Huntingwood
About 10-15 mins away from Liverpool.
About 30 mins away from Penrith (which is also on the way to my sisters house)
Other locations in Sydney that I am aware of are Mascot (airport) and Wynyard.
To try to describe the donuts for those who haven't had one, the regular ones are glazed (not iced) a bit like those pineapple ones that you can buy where it ends up getting all over your hands.
They are great cold, and probably even better warm!
BTW - have you people heard about how alcohol companies pay people to go out to clubs and stand near th bar drinking a particular drink and just during the course of "normal" conversation drop in how nice it is.
s2000 - no these are not cinnabun

Check out the video of how they are made

i had one a few months ago and it was good.
however, the only comparison is against other donuts, which are generally terrible.
so it's like comparing it to eating crap, of course its the best donut u ever tried.

I agree - it is very hard to compare these to other donuts as these are not very doughy/cakey at all. They are really light, they must use a lot of yeast.
I declare shenanigans on Cayenneguy for making us all talk about certain commercial products.
If we are your focus group at least take us all on taste testings of beer
