donut maker

ssc_dougal

I am looking to save a few quid and make my old donuts.

My problem is im looking for a gadget i used to use years ago but am unable to find it and thought maybe the keen eyes of all you money savers could help.

what im looking for is very cheap and effective and is essentially a funnel with the bottom section removed and replaced with a movable disc.

the mix is added and you press a plunger which drops just the reight amount of dough into your deep fat fryer.

Ive searched high and low for one of these but keep coming accross these new electric donut makers that bake the donuts (not good for me as i enjoy the unhealthy versions much more)

i think i originally got mine from betterware (or something simmilar)

thanks for any help and i hope you can decipher my explaniation.

I've seen them in Lakeland, have you tried?

I "bake" my own donuts and they taste just as nice. I bought a tray from Lakeland for baking small ones and they are fine (too fine as they never last that long) and healthier since they aren't fried.
