Popcorn needs salt. I was initially planning on using our Cornflakes crumbs to top our popcorn glazed doughnut. As I ran the idea through my head I felt the cornflakes would not carry enough impact and it would pull the flavor and idea away from the popcorn glaze. Instead I reached for our white chocolate pretzel crumbs. It provided a roasted, toasty, almost buttery saltiness to the doughnuts. It wasn't corn flavored with corn. The crumbs brought focus to the popcorn glaze and the doughnut.
