Going Mad Over Donuts

I attended this awesome bloggers meet last week at Mad Over Donuts in Prabhadevi, Mumbai. This is my 3rd blog post but I was invited by one of the other bloggers, purely for my interest in food.
All of us were served Donuts to eat and since I am not a very big Donut fan, I reluctantly ate one and was filled up to the brim. After feasting on the colorful donuts, it was our turn to make them.
 A chef demonstrated a few sample pieces with milk chocolate, dark chocolate and white chocolate and many more colorful sugar decorative material. One of the very enthusiastic girls volunteered to  go first to try her hands on the calorie packed sweet.
Honestly,  a donut without icing does not look tempting at all. At this point of time, it gave me a feeling of attending the meet for bagels more than donuts. Coming back to our lady, she picked up the heaviest donut with a chocolate filling. Before picking up the donut, she struggled with the white glove and after a lot of effort finally got it on. She dipped it in the dark chocolate and topped it up with many more layers of chocolate and other decorative items. Nobody had the guts to taste this sinful sweet. Finally she managed to take a bite for the picture. Then came my turn and I picked up the most simple one and dipped it in dark chocolate. Without taking much time, I just made a Smiley :) with White chocolate on it, which was appreciated by everybody and was also being compared to my smile.
This process continued with about 15 more people after me. All in all it was a great experience!
