I don’t know about you, but I’m getting excited about the upcoming royal wedding. Back when Prince Charles and Lady Diana got married, I was too young, it happened too early in the morning and I was out of town with little access to a TV. But this time around, I’m very interested in what Kate Middleton’s gown will look like…and most importantly, if she’ll get a borrowed tiara to wear for the big day. I’ve probably clicked on every photo gallery of the tiaras in the royal collection. I’m hoping she’ll get to wear the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara or the Grand Duchess Vladimir Tiara. Those are my favorites. Anyway, the wedding will broadcast very early in the morning over here in the states. Which means you’ll need some breakfast while you're watching! Cue the very savvy people over at Dunkin’ Donuts who have a perfect plan. Specifically, we need to thank the Dunkin' Brands CEO, Nigel Travis. He's originally from across the pond in Woodford, Essex just outside of London. So he knows.... Anyway, he encouraged the Dunkin' Donuts chefs and now they're introducing the “Royal Wedding Donut” in honor of the upcoming nuptials. Here’s a picture. It’s a heart shaped donut filled with jelly topped with vanilla icing and chocolate drizzle. Sounds sweet and very filling. It’s nice that they can whip out the heart shaped donut outside of Valentine’s Day. The jelly is a nice touch as well...I hope its raspberry! What a great idea! It’s a love themed breakfast item and there’s a Dunkin’ Donuts near my house…very convenient. I hear they’ll be available the week leading up to the wedding from April 24th (my anniversary) through the 29th (the day of the royal wedding). They’re retailing for $0.89 each so I’ll be sure to make a run over to the nearby Dunkin’ Donuts and grab a few. Well done, Dunkin’ Donuts! Well done, indeed.
