Which of these food hybrids would you buy? There’s a market out there for new desserts or baked goods that merge two treats, like a donut and a croissant, to create an offspring with a clever moniker, like the Cronut.
What would you crossbreed?
I’d create the bacon jelly donut. It would be like a jelly donut, but filled with a sweet jam of bacon, brown sugar, fresh ginger and assorted seasonings. Instead of sugar, the top would be sprinkled with sweetened bits of browned bacon.
Does anybody like this idea, and if you do, what would you name it?
Here’s a link to a NYT’s story for other hybrid desserts and trends.
