The colossal pastry contains almost 170,000 calories and weighs in at a massive 40kg

The brains behind the UK's biggest-ever doughnut are launching a pop-up shop in Kettering. Booming bakery business Project D has made the UK’s biggest-ever doughnut – containing almost 170,000 calories and weighing in at a massive 40kg.

The result was a doughnut measuring 1.4 metres in diameter, weighing as much as a baby calf and crammed with 169,342 calories – the same as around 740 Mars Bars or 1,400 large bananas. Rebecca said that the colossal confection, filled with both raspberry jam and chocolate and topped with vanilla cream, chocolate icing, chocolate fudge brownies, raspberries, golden Dairy Milk chunks and swirls of caramel cream, tasted as good as it looked.

Max Poynton, operations director for Project D, said: “We’re over the moon to have been invited to play such a big part in both Rebecca’s special birthday and Cubo’s third birthday celebrations.
