Not for the weight loss faint hearted

Hoards of donut fans descended on the Werrigar Roadhouse on Sunday afternoon, when a travelling donut van suddenly appeared in the carpark.

Known as The Candy Van with Imber's Donuts, based in Adelaide or Geelong, the travelling van served up hundreds of flip top packs of donuts smothered in gooey, but of course, tasty sweet sauces and ice cream, which was highly popular as temperatures reached 40C over the weekend.

The large sweet treat packs featured Kinder Surprise, Mars Bar, Banoffee Pie, Ferrero Rocher and Biscoff sweets and of course sticky syrups and ice cream.

While quite expensive, they were well 'sought after' with many dozens of sweet enthusiasts lined up to either order or await their order in the heat of the day.

In fact they were so popular, Warracknabeal was a ’sellout’ prior to the van moving on to Mildura.

No doubt these donut ice cream packs didn’t help the waistline for some….but they were certainly popular judging by the lineup of those in wait!
