Ever had a Bomboloni before? The Italians love it, and for good reason! It's their traditional version of a doughnut – a light, airy, fluffy pastry filled with pastry cream, and then coated in a thin layer of sugar. Craving for one now? Look no further, because Little Flour Cafe, Wildflour's sweet-loving breakfast and brunch buddy has this for you.

Pinoys will love its local version, the Ube Bomboloni (P110), filled with special ube halaya cream. Its sugary outer covering is just the right amount of crisp and fluff, with the ube cream so smooth and tasty, it's hard not to fall in love with. Of course, who can forget about the legendary Cronut?
