What Are Bonchon Korean Donuts?

The Only Dessert on the Bonchon Menu

Bonchon Korean Donuts are based on chapssal donut — a traditional Korean sweet made from glutinous rice flour or a yeasted dough that creates a uniquely soft, airy, and slightly chewy texture unlike Western donuts. Where American donuts are dense and doughy, Korean donuts are lighter and fluffier, with a thin crispy exterior from frying and a pillowy soft interior.

Bonchon’s version comes two per order, coated in a classic cinnamon and sugar mixture that clings to the warm, lightly oiled exterior. They are served with a sweet cream dipping sauce that adds richness and a cooling contrast to the warm, cinnamon-spiced donut.

At approximately $6.99 for 2 pieces, Korean Donuts are the only dessert on the Bonchon menu. They appear as a standalone item and in Bonchon’s combo meals — the “Drum & Donut” combo (3 drumsticks + fries + 1 Korean donut) is one of the most popular value meals on the menu at many locations.

Quick Answer: Bonchon Korean Donuts cost approximately $6.99 for 2 pieces and contain approximately 420 calories total. They are coated in cinnamon sugar and served with sweet cream dipping sauce — the only dessert item on the Bonchon menu.

The Korean Donut Experience

How Korean Donuts Differ from American Donuts

If you have never had a Korean-style donut before, expect something quite different from a Krispy Kreme or Dunkin’ donut:

Korean Donuts (Bonchon)

Traditional chapssal style

Light, airy, fluffy interior
Thin crispy fried exterior
Slightly chewy — from rice flour
Less sweet than American donuts
Cinnamon sugar coating outside
Sweet cream sauce for dipping
~210 cal per donut

American Donuts (Glazed)

Classic yeast-raised style

Dense, doughy, bread-like interior
Soft fried exterior
Classic bread chew — no rice flour
Sweeter — sugar-forward
Glaze or icing coating
No dipping sauce
~250–350 cal per donut

Eating Tip: Eat the Korean Donuts while they are still warm — the cinnamon sugar coating and crispy exterior are best fresh. Dip in the sweet cream sauce and eat in 2 bites per donut for the best ratio of crispy exterior to fluffy interior.

Frequently Asked Questions

Bonchon Korean Donuts FAQ

How much do Bonchon Korean Donuts cost?+

Bonchon Korean Donuts cost approximately $6.99 for 2 pieces. They are also available as part of the Drum & Donut combo meal (~$14.99) which includes 3 drumsticks and fries. Prices vary by location and may be higher on delivery platforms.

How many calories are in Bonchon Korean Donuts?+

Bonchon Korean Donuts contain approximately 420 calories for 2 pieces (approximately 210 calories per donut). This is lower than most American donuts, which typically range from 250–350 calories each, due to the lighter Korean-style dough.

What do Bonchon Korean Donuts taste like?+

Bonchon Korean Donuts taste warm, sweet, and cinnamony on the outside with a soft, fluffy, slightly chewy interior. They are less sweet than American donuts — the cinnamon sugar coating provides the primary sweetness rather than the dough itself. The sweet cream dipping sauce adds a cool, creamy richness that complements the warm cinnamon coating.

What allergens are in Bonchon Korean Donuts?+

Bonchon Korean Donuts contain Wheat (in the dough), Eggs (in the dough), and Dairy (in the sweet cream dipping sauce). They are not suitable for gluten-free, egg-free, or dairy-free diners. Always confirm allergens with your specific Bonchon location.

How many donuts come per order?+

The standalone Korean Donuts order comes with 2 donuts plus a sweet cream dipping sauce. The Drum & Donut combo includes 1 donut alongside 3 drumsticks and fries.

Are Korean donuts the same as churros?+

No — they share cinnamon sugar coating but are fundamentally different. Churros are made from choux pastry extruded through a star-shaped tip and fried into a long, ridged stick. Korean donuts are round balls made from a yeasted or rice-flour dough — much softer, lighter, and fluffier inside with a smooth exterior.

Can I order Korean Donuts for delivery?+

Yes — available through the Bonchon app, bonchon.com, DoorDash, and Uber Eats at most locations. However, Korean Donuts are best eaten fresh and warm. For delivery, the cinnamon sugar coating holds reasonably well but the crispy exterior may soften slightly during transit. For the best experience, eat them at the restaurant or order for quick pickup.

Best Pairings for Korean Donuts

🍳

Drumsticks (Soy Garlic)

The Drum & Donut combo exists for good reason — the sweet-savory Soy Garlic drumsticks followed by warm cinnamon donuts is a natural flavor progression. The sweetness of the donuts complements rather than clashes with the Soy Garlic sauce.

🍳

Wings (Spicy)

Order Korean Donuts as a dessert after Spicy Wings. The sweet, cinnamony donut actively cools and neutralizes the residual heat from the Korean chili sauce — a perfect ending to a spicy Bonchon meal.

🍚

Steamed Rice — ~$2.99

If ordering the donuts as part of a full meal, steamed rice as the main course side keeps overall calories moderate — letting you save room for dessert.

🧲

Pickled Radish — Free

Have pickled radish at the end of your savory meal to cleanse the palate completely before moving to the Korean Donuts — the sourness of the radish makes the sweetness of the donuts taste more pronounced.
