Domino’s Australia Launches New Giant Doughnuts

Has the world officially gone off the rails? Domino’s has unleashed a bold and surprising new creation: a giant donut! Imagine a pizza reimagined as a donut, complete with a hole in the middle. This oversized dessert is made with hand-crafted dough that’s oven-baked—not fried—then coated with a generous dusting of cinnamon sugar. It’s topped off with a rich cream cheese icing glaze and finished with Domino’s signature sprinkles. Part sweet indulgence, part savory twist, it’s the kind of culinary mashup that’s as intriguing as it is unexpected.

Domino’s has officially sweetened the deal in Australia with the introduction of Giant Doughnuts! These hand-crafted, oven-baked creations are glazed with a luscious cream cheese icing, offering a fresh twist on the traditional donut experience.

True to their name, these doughnuts are massive, measuring a whopping 16 cm in size, making them a treat that’s perfect for sharing—or not! To cater to every sweet tooth, they’re available in four tempting varieties:

• Original Glaze: A classic choice, simple yet irresistibly satisfying.
• Sprinkles: Bright, colorful, and fun—a nostalgic favorite for all ages.
• Choc Crumble: Perfect for chocolate lovers, with a delightful crunch in every bite.
• Cookie Crumb: A decadent combination of creamy glaze and cookie crumble for a rich and indulgent flavor.

But let’s be honest—donuts are meant to be fried in oil, not baked in an oven! While I have nothing but love for Domino’s pizza, this sugary innovation feels like a hard pass for me, much like Subway’s infamous foot-long cookie. Critics have already weighed in, claiming it’s little more than glorified pizza crust slathered in frosting. That’s a shame because, on paper, this sounds like the perfect post-pizza treat.

For now, this quirky dessert is exclusive to Australia, where lucky locals get to decide if it’s a game-changer or a gimmick. If it ever crosses the pond to North America, will it win over the late-night munchies crowd—or will it remain a cautionary tale of going too far with food experimentation? Time will tell!
