New Krispy Creme in Ireland causes so much boisterous excitement, the shop had to shut down their drive-thru

One of my favorite things in the world is a pastry filled with custard (i think… last time i had one i was a kid). I don’t know if an equivalent exists in the English speaking world but i know it as a Bomba (literal translation is Bomb).

It’s like a donut but the dough is not quiiite the same, fairly close. It’s usually topped with either powdered sugar or chunky granules of sugar. I prefer the coarse sugar because of the texture. And it is filled with a creamy delicious custard

Edit: I have had custard filled donuts here in the US but i find the quality of the custard to be just… off. Too sugary and kinda more runny than i’d like, and the taste isn’t very rich.
