PVDonuts in Providence, Rhode Island, created a pastry that went viral this time last year, and the bakery decided to serve up the Thanksgiving specialty again.
Its trademarked Friendsgiving Donut consists of a fluffy brioche doughnut topped with cranberry glaze, strips of fried chicken, mashed potatoes, stuffing and gravy.
"Each year, we throw a Friendsgiving party so we can get together and celebrate with our closest friends, some of which don't have the opportunity to make it home for the Thanksgiving holiday due to various reasons. This doughnut is our way of showing that same love in a business sense by collaborating with another local business here in Providence," Paul, an employee at PVDonuts, told ABC News.
Its seasonal doughnut is available only after 9 a.m. from Nov. 20 to 22.
Momofuku Milk Bar, a bakery in New York, D.C., Las Vegas and Toronto, is known for its stuffing-flavored croissant filled with turkey, gravy and cranberry sauce.
Jelly Belly is also getting into the Thanksgiving spirit. Its specialty jelly beans come in cranberry sauce and pumpkin pie flavors in its Holiday Favorites mixed bag.
