I may not be a ‘Millionaire’ but I’ll take the doughnut!
Well it’s an unbelievable 3 years since my post covering McDonald’s Millionaire’s latte which debuted back in 2018, (see here Search Results for “Millionaire” – Philippa Nestie ) goodness how time flies...scary really. Anyway I thought it might be time since as it’s now officially the run up to Christmas to check out if McDonald’s are ‘re-issuing’ this ‘classic’. Well disappointingly no…but I did indulge in a Millionaire’s doughnut. So no latte but a special toffee latte so that was the nearest thing, so I just had to get it.
it wasn’t a Millionaire’s latte this time but the toffee was tops!
Well was it worth this long wait? Hmmm….not bad I can’t say I was very disappointed the latte was very nice, creamy with that hit of toffee so it ticked all the boxes on that score. And the doughnut? Would a Millionaire be pleased with this? Does it represent a higher level of doughnut? Not exactly but it was good and I was happy. It was tasty with a very yummy caramel centre with a biscuit topping it was sweet (very) melt in the mouth and I did enjoy it. Though I feel the price of £1.39 for just one doughnut a bit steep. (Or am I unrealistic on this?). Stepping into the ‘modern’ times I even ordered via the app (there’s a first time for everything) and have to say was impressed with not only a 20% discount but as soon as I arrived my order was ready. Pronto! You really can’t beat that, so despite my misgivings and grudges against big corporations they have lured me into a very ‘sweet’ deal. Oh and I did recycle all the packaging…as feeling v guilty..but what’s life without a guilty pleasure now & then? It’s a rare treat for me.
I was excited to check out the Millionaire’s doughnut & toffee latte
UPDATE! To my horror on checking the app I saw this:-
“Temporarily unavailable” what??? OMG so it is popular…wow so just a few days after posting this at present I can’t get it…ahhh….! Crumbs..(well maybe not in this case now..) but well looks like for now I’ll have to find another ‘sweet treat’…well blow me down I didn’t see this one coming…I’ll have to check for the toffee latte…hopefully that will be still available??? Guess I’m about to find out…
