An Italian pastry called Bombolini has crossed the Atlantic Ocean to take Nigeria by storm.
Bombolini is like a jelly doughnut, made completely round and intended to be filled with a custard, jam, or cream.
Bomboloni are also known as “krapfen” or “kraffen” in their home nation of Italy. These delicious donuts originated in a specific part of Italy, known as Trentino Alto- Adige which was once under the rule of Austria.
So it’s basically an Italian cuisine combined with Austrian and Bavarian influence to create this traditional treat in the late 1600s!
