Popular Japanese bakery chain I'm Donut is set to open its first Singapore outlet, the brand revealed in a social media post on Monday (Sep 28). The post shows a picture of a hoarding at an unknown location and is captioned: "2026 – Coming Soon", suggesting that the opening will happen sometime this year.

That same day, a separate account for I'm Donut Singapore also went live.

Launched in Japan in 2022, I'm Donut is known for its wide range of pillowy doughnuts. The treats are made with a unique brioche dough that combines several types of wheat with pumpkin.

The dough is slowly fermented at a low temperature for an extended period before being quickly fried at a high temperature. This gives the doughnuts a chewy, elastic texture that still melts in your mouth.

Signature flavours include the original doughnut, which is sprinkled with brown sugar; the matcha doughnut and the custard doughnut.
