The Decorated Egg-Shaped Donut is Now Available in All U.S. Restaurants for a Limited Time Only

DUBLIN, Ohio (March 20, 2012)-You won't have to hunt for your colored eggs this spring, just head straight to the nearest bakery showcase at any U.S. Tim Hortons Cafe & Bake Shop restaurant.

This year, the bakery cafe chain has created a special Easter Egg Donut in celebration of the spring season.

The egg-shaped, yeast donut-available now through April 8-is dipped in chocolate fondant and accented with pastel-colored icing in honor of the egg-decorating pastime.

"It's always fun to celebrate the holidays with our guests," said Mike Meilleur, senior vice president of U.S. operations. "The Easter Egg Donut is a new twist on a Tim Hortons classic that will bring out the little kid in all of us."

There is no extra charge for the egg-celent donut, it retails at the everyday price of an individual donut.
