Of the four sakura-themed donuts on the menu at Misdo stores this year, this Blooming Strawberry Milk option is the most eye catching, in my opinion! The cherry blossom-flavored dough is coated in strawberry chocolate and then topped with little strawberry granules, but the piece de resistance is the strawberry milk bean paste on top. It's piped on the donut to look like a sakura in bloom, which makes it both very cute and very tasty. Price-wise, I think it feels pretty decent for a donut that has quite a few components to it, so I've got no real complaints there!

If you don't like donuts with a bunch of different flavors and textures, this one might feel like there's a bit too much going on with it. Another possible downside for folks who really love this one is that it's a limited time only thing. It's always a bummer if you find yourself really enjoying an item, but then it disappears from stores as soon as it appears. Overall though, this is a yummy donut that feels very appropriate for the time of year, and it's visually very pleasing as well. Head in to your nearest Mister Donut store soon if it sounds like a must try item for you! :)
