The Pistachio Takeover
Pistachio is having a moment. Once a supporting flavour in baklava or a specific gelato choice, it has become a mainstream headliner across UK food. We have seen pistachio croissants, pistachio cheesecakes, and viral pistachio-based drinks dominate café menus and social media feeds for the last couple of years. It was only a matter of time before the flavour appeared in the supermarket doughnut fixture.
This concept brings the trend to a familiar format. The packaging suggests a limited edition run, tapping into the idea of a special, short-term bakery treat. It is a very direct interpretation of a popular flavour. No twists. Just pistachio.
A Supermarket Bakery Format
The design uses the standard clear-fronted bag typical of M&S in-store bakery items, from their classic ring doughnuts to Yum Yums. The pack contains four doughnuts, each appearing to be a glazed ring doughnut generously topped with chopped pistachio nuts.
The description, however, specifies a ‘Pistachio Cream’ filling. This is slightly unusual for a ring doughnut, which is typically not filled. Ball doughnuts are the usual format for cream or jam fillings. This detail raises questions about the construction. Is the cream piped into the dough ring itself? It’s a minor detail on the pack, but one that sets it apart from the standard bakery offering.
