How to Bake Marbled Retro Block Donuts

Marbled Donuts are all the rage but in a recent poll on our Instagram page we found that retro block donuts may be even more popular! We will give you the easy steps to making sure your donuts turn out perfect every time and genuinely impress your pals. Here we have used our Limited Edition Pink Mini Choccie Blockie DIY Donut Baking and Decorating Kit.

Retro Donuts

Block colours are the real deal!

Step 1: mix up your batter

Step 2: split the batter into two bowls and add colouring to each bowl and stir until your batter reaches your desired colour (remember to save some food colouring for your icing and mini chocolate blocks to decorate)

Step 3: spoon chunks of batter into your pre-greased donut pan (tip: always grease using canola oil!) and then use a small spoon to smooth the batter and blend the donut mix slightly to ensure the two colours bake connected on the underside (the side you can see will end up the bottom of the donuts).

Step 4: bake for 10-12 minutes and then allow to cool prior to removing from the pans. Push the middle of each pan and carefully peel back the pan for successful removal.

Marbled Donuts

Marbled donuts are so pretty!

 Step 1: mix up your batter

 Step 2: split the batter into two bowls and add colouring to each bowl and stir until your batter reaches your desired colour (remember to save some food colouring for your icing and mini chocolate blocks to decorate)

Step 3: spoon the batter into a piping bags, alternating colours e.g. one light pink spoonful then one hot pink spoonful. When the two colours are next to each other they will marble as they are squeezed out of the piping bag into your pre-greased donut pan (tip: always grease using canola oil!).

Step 4: bake for 10-12 minutes and then allow to cool prior to removing from the pans. Push the middle of each pan and carefully peel back the pan for successful removal.
