Is for real here and I think this phenomena has already been ongoing for sometime. There's bound to be a long queue whenever you see a doughnut shop, its like magic. Doughnut shop, long queue. Doughnut shop, long queue. Doughnut shop, long queue. I should head around interviewing individuals ala Edisi Siasat to reveal the reason behind the craze for these doughy treats.
Fueled mainly by curiosity, some weeks back, E & I gave it a shot, are the doughnuts really THAT good and irresistable that people are willing to queue patiently for them?
Destination :: Vinco in VivoCity (just found out that they've changed their name to Dippin' Donut)
Estimated time in queue :: 25 minutes
Actual time in queue :: 18 minutes
Results :: Half a dozen of doughnuts in varieties.
Chocolate Delight, Mon Cheri, Royal Cheese, Some peanut thingy which does not seems to be available anymore, Chocolate Cinnamon and Cinnamon Caramel (I think)

Lo and Behold, Doughnuts that requires some effort and patience to be purchased.
Doughnuts, halved, so that each of us can taste all of the flavours.
In conclusion, I honestly think that there's nothing special/magical with them, with E in total agreement. It tasted like how normal doughnuts would be, with different toppings, just like how a plain naan would be compared to cheese or garlic naan. It'll definitely be a while before I can bring myself to queue for doughnuts again. Or perhaps I should try Donut Factory which seems to have a greater following.
Signing off, in the words of Homer Simpson, "MMMmmm Doughnuts".
