Will the donut craze restart just like the rebirth of the bubble tea craze?

Did you noticed the rebirth of the bubble tea these days?  Bubble tea craze in Singapore is back! this round, we have brands like "Koi", "Gong Cha" leading the craze.  So, whats the difference in this bubble tea compared to the 1st round of craze some years back?  This round, customers are taking part in the ultimate taste of their tea!  Customers are allowed to choose the level of milk and sweetness of their tea.  There is 100% sugar, 75%. 50%, 25% etc.  I read somewhere that these days, products sell better when customers are able to participate in the making of the final product.  This seems to be the case.  Facebook is a good example and so are iphone applications. 

Recently, I am slowly beginning to notice the possible rebirth of another once popular product - donuts!  Remember those days where we need to stand in line to wait for our turns to purchase donuts at donut factory? Gone were those days with the very fast expansion of donut factory, influx of more donut brands like Jco, dunkin and of cos, sales of donuts at our bread and butter breadshops' like at crystal jade, breadtalk, four leaves and more.  I am beginning to notice the 1st possibility of the donut trend might just be back! (just like bubble tea!).  Have you noticed that Dunkin donut is setting up shop at some several key locations including at Ion Orchard?  Have you noticed that Jco is still maintaining its influx of customers?  Have you noticed this new brand called Sapporo petit donuts at the basement of Takashimaya?  This is the Japanese-sytle donuts.  Will this donut be able to attract customers back to the donut craze?  Will this donut be able to sustain its customer base in the long run? 

Can we conclude that the new day donut business model certainly needs to have an element of personalisation coming direct from customers?  How can customers affect the ultimate taste of the donuts that they purchase?  How about giving customers the choice to add their own toppings?  How about giving custimers the choice to choose their own type of donut dough?  Some thoughts...

New donut in town?  Japanese donuts?

Looks really cute...
