To accompany the warming weather, Mark Isreal, the owner of the Doughnut Plant, has introduced the Wonder Wheel: a cake doughnut ice cream sandwich. The name is a mouthful, and each sandwich is a delicious one. Mr. Isreal said he has been working on them for years. They’re split, lightly coated with milk, dark or flavored white chocolate and filled with ice cream made in-house. The six ice cream flavors are coffee, green matcha, tres leches, strawberry, dark chocolate and peanut butter-milk chocolate. Let them sit a room temperature for about 10 minutes to soften.
$8.75 a package, either one regular or two mini, Doughnut Plant, all locations, or $85 for a sampler of six regular or 12 mini shipped nationwide, doughnutplant.com.
