Application

Preparing donuts with the FunCakes mix for donuts is very easy and really quick. Simply pour the baking mix into a bowl and then add the required fresh ingredients such as vegetable oil and water. Knead the dough thoroughly. It is best to use your mixer with the dough hook attachments. After about 5 minutes of kneading, you should have a smooth dough.

Once the dough is ready, you can roll it out to about 5 mm and cut out the donuts. If you don't have a cutter, you can also simply cut the rings out of the donut dough by hand. Then leave the donut rings to stand for 25 minutes to allow the dough to rise a little. After leaving to rest, your donuts are now ready to bake. You can either bake them in a suitable donut baking tin in a preheated oven or in the classic way in hot oil in a deep fryer until golden brown. Make sure the oil is at the right temperature so that the donuts fry evenly and don't get too dark. The donuts should be baked in the oven at 200 °C for around 12 minutes until they are golden brown and perfectly cooked. Make sure that you preheat the deep fryer well. Frying in the deep fryer is the slightly unhealthier option, as the donuts absorb the fat much more. If you use a baking pan, make sure you grease the pan well. It is best to use a vegetable fat. After baking, it is best to place the donuts on a kitchen towel so that excess fat can drip off. However, be careful not to burn yourself on the hot fat. Allow the donuts to cool completely before decorating. Thanks to this simple preparation, you can conjure up a whole load of fluffy donuts in a short time. Depending on the size of the donuts, around 12 to 15 donuts can be made with the 500 g baking mix. Perfect for family, friends, a children's birthday party or simply to enjoy yourself! Once baked, the donuts should be stored in an airtight container at room temperature to preserve their freshness and flavor. Eat the donuts within a few days for the best experience!

Decorations and embellishments

The decoration of your donuts can be as creative and colorful as you like. Use different glazes to give your donuts a very special touch. From classic chocolate icing to colorful sugar icing, anything is possible. You can also add sprinkles, confetti or small sugar pearls to create a festive and appealing look. The donuts can also be adapted to different themes and occasions.

A piping bag is perfect for applying the glazes precisely. You can also combine several glazes to create completely new flavor experiences. Remember: the decoration doesn't just look good, it also gives your donuts that certain something in terms of taste. With a little imagination and fun when decorating, your donuts will become real little works of art. Perfect for surprising and spoiling your guests!

Variations

With the ready-made baking mix for donuts, there are no limits to your creativity. Experiment with different flavors and create your very own, individual donuts. How about chocolate chips, nuts or fresh fruit in the batter, for example? This creates exciting flavor combinations that are guaranteed to provide variety. You can also inject a filling into the donuts using a filling nozzle. For example, a fruity jam or a creamy vanilla or chocolate filling is suitable. Mini donuts are also a great option, which are perfect for parties, buffets or as a sweet treat between meals. Simply cut out very small rings and reduce the baking or frying time slightly. 

You can also get creative with the icing: Try out different flavors such as vanilla, strawberry or cinnamon and combine them to your heart's content. You can make your donuts exactly how you or your loved ones like them best. Our baking mix for donuts can also be used creatively in other recipes, such as for churros or as a base for various cakes.

What is the difference between donuts and doughnuts?

The difference between donuts and doughnuts lies mainly in the spelling - and this depends primarily on the region. In the USA, the short form "donut" is widely used, while "doughnut" is the traditional spelling, which is more commonly used in British English. However, both terms refer to the same delicious pastry: a round, deep-fried yeast pastry that is often enhanced with glazes, fillings or toppings. The choice of spelling also reflects a bit of culture. The American form is short, memorable and modern. The British spelling is closer to the original origin of the word. The word is made up of "dough" and "nut", which originally referred to the shape.
