A Brief History:
First Cream Filled Donut: The doughnut draws its inspiration from the Boston cream pie, which was originally crafted by chef M. Sanzian at the Parker House Hotel in Boston in 1856. This dessert features a layer of vanilla custard nestled between two layers of sponge cake, all finished with a chocolate glaze, and has enjoyed popularity in Massachusetts since its inception.
Cream Filled Donut: According to insights from industry professionals and various comments, it appears that the filling in question is more accurately described as a “creme” rather than a traditional cream. This suggests that it does not contain dairy or eggs. It is likely composed of shortening, sugar or powdered sugar, and flavorings such as vanilla. Furthermore, given that this creme is found in mass-produced items like Swiss rolls and is specifically labeled as “creme” by Dunkin’ Donuts, it is understandable that they would opt not to invest in the storage and use of animal-based ingredients. This may explain the difficulty in finding relevant information online. It certainly does not evoke the same appeal as buttercream, Bavarian cream, or other types of pastry creams.
Cream Filled Donuts are Delicious: A cream donut is tasty and fun-filled. The cream is sweet and the texture is just right. A cream filled donut will brighten up any morning or even lunch or a snack!
When: The is celebrated on September 14th every year.
