Mister Donut Pop-Up At Jurong Point Sparks Massive Queue

Month-long pop-up

The pop-up stall is slated to run for a month starting from Jul 15, though WAttention Plaza stated that it may wrap up early if there is overwhelming demand. 

The opening hours are 11am to 9pm daily, with each customer limited to a maximum purchase of 30 pieces. The chain is well-known for its pon de ring doughnut, which has eight doughy balls connected in a circle.

There is overwhelming demand
 

Even before the pop-up opened at 11am today (Jul 15), the queue for doughnuts had already stretched all the way down the Japanese food street by 10.30am. Just after 11am, the queue had snaked around the main walkway.

3,000 pieces available daily 
 

According to WAttention Plaza, there are 3,000 doughnuts available daily. A staff member on-site told 8days.sg that “there are four chefs working very hard right now to churn out the doughnuts”. We also spotted the doughnuts coming out of a kitchen that belonged to Gokoku Japanese Bakery.

The doughnuts

Around 16 types of doughnuts are available on the menu, such as the Pon De Ring in original and strawberry flavours, Custard Cream, Honey Dip, Coconut Chocolate and Angel French, a chocolate-dipped cruller stuffed with whipped cream. Prices range from $2.30 to $2.50 a piece. There’s also a bundle deal at six for $13.50 and 10 for $22.

We saw most of the customers going for the pon de ring, as well as a selection of the fancier-looking flavours. Per WAttention Plaza, the stall is expected to close early for the day once it runs out of doughnuts.
