Doughnuts are one of the world’s most popular desserts, and aside from the usual photo ops, a new trend of doughnut mashups has recently emerged. Not only have croissants been combined with doughnuts to create “cronuts,” but on IG, some users have started placing doughnuts or cronuts atop drinks, giving rise to a new style of street-style photo drink. The trend first went viral online in the US, with spots like Boston’s Blackbird Doughnuts leading the charge.

Meanwhile, Japan’s streets are also catching onto the doughnut mashup craze. Shops such as DumboDC, Canvas Tokyo, and Jack In The Donuts have seen numerous customers using their doughnut combinations for photo ops, sparking lively discussions.
