Donut King is a dessert e-liquid brand from the UK team at Bowmans, and the name tells you exactly where its heart lies: freshly fried donuts and the sweet things that go with them. The 100ml shortfill range takes that idea and runs with it, well beyond plain donut into cakes, custards and breakfast cereals, all built to taste like the real thing rather than a vague sweet note.

These are 70/30 shortfills, which means a high-VG blend designed for sub-ohm, direct-to-lung vaping. The 120ml bottle comes filled with 100ml of 0mg e-liquid, leaving room to add two 10ml nicotine shots if you want nicotine, which takes a full 100ml up to roughly 3mg. Add the shots, give it a good shake, and you have 100ml of dessert vape ready for a high-VG tank.
This is a flavour for people who like their vape to taste like pudding. If you want a fruit or a menthol, look elsewhere; if you want a fried donut filled with custard, a slice of Battenberg or a bowl of frosted flakes, this range is built for you. At £18.99 for the 100ml it sits in the usual premium-shortfill bracket, and it wants a proper sub-ohm tank such as the HorizonTech Sakerz to show the flavour off.
A shortfill is a bottle of nicotine-free e-liquid left deliberately short of full, so you can add your own nicotine. Donut King 100ml ships as 100ml of 0mg liquid in a 120ml bottle. The 20ml of empty space is there for two 10ml nicotine shots. Add both, and you fill the bottle to 120ml total, diluting the 18mg or 20mg shots down across the whole bottle to land at roughly 3mg of nicotine in 100ml of finished e-liquid.
If you do not want nicotine at all, you can vape it as it comes at 0mg. If you do, the maths is simple: two standard 10mg nic shots in a 100ml shortfill give about 3mg, the most common sub-ohm strength. After adding shots, screw the cap back on and shake the bottle hard for a minute or two, then let it stand so the nicotine and flavour fully blend before you fill your tank.
Because it is a 70/30 blend, Donut King is made for sub-ohm hardware, not small MTL pods. A high-VG liquid like this is too thick for a 1.0 ohm pod coil and will struggle to wick, giving dry hits. Run it in a sub-ohm tank with a mesh coil below 0.5 ohm and a direct-to-lung draw, and it produces the dense clouds and full flavour these dessert recipes are designed for.
Steeping helps with dessert flavours in particular. Custards, cakes and bakery notes often deepen if you leave the bottle to stand for a few days to a week after adding nic shots, somewhere cool and dark. It is not essential, and the liquid is perfectly vapeable straight away, but the richer profiles in this range tend to round out and improve with a little patience.

The Donut King 100ml range at VapeCity spans three of the brand's collections, so you get more than just plain donut. The original donut line is the foundation: Deep Fried Donut is exactly what it says, a straight, no-nonsense fried-donut vape, while the others take that fried-donut base and stuff it with something.
From the original range, Strawberry Cheesecake brings a biscuit-based cheesecake with a strawberry topping, Key Lime Creme pairs sharp lime with sweet cream, Hazelnut Cream Wafer leans into a chocolate-hazelnut wafer profile, and Jaffa blends orange with chocolate sponge for the classic cake-or-biscuit flavour. These are the rich, indulgent end of the range.
The DK Cakes collection swaps the donut for a slice of cake. Battenberg Cakes captures the almond-and-jam checkerboard sponge, Devon Fudge Cakes layers fudge over sponge, Manchester Tart Cakes brings the custard, jam and coconut of the school-dinner classic, and Banana Bread Cakes is a warm, moist banana loaf. They are some of the more accurate bakery flavours on the market.
The DK Breakfast collection heads to the cereal bowl. Strawberry & White Choco Pops is a sweet, milky cereal flavour with strawberry and white chocolate, and Jam On Toast is exactly that, buttered toast spread with sweet fruit jam. They are the lighter, more morning-friendly options if a full custard donut is too heavy for all-day vaping. Across all three ranges, every flavour is a 70/30 sub-ohm shortfill.

Preparing a shortfill is a one-minute job: decide your strength, add the nic shots if you want nicotine, shake, and fill a sub-ohm tank. The richer dessert flavours reward a few days of steeping, but it is vapeable straight away.
How to add nic shots to a Donut King 100ml shortfill
Donut King is a dessert e-liquid, full stop. It is aimed squarely at vapers who enjoy sweet, bakery and pudding flavours and want them done properly rather than as a faint background note. If you are an all-day fruit or menthol vaper, this range will not be your thing, and that is worth knowing before you buy.
It also assumes sub-ohm hardware. Because it is a 70/30 high-VG blend, it needs a sub-ohm tank and a direct-to-lung setup to wick and perform. Trying to run it in a small MTL pod kit designed for nic salts will give you dry, muted hits. If your only device is a pod kit, a 50/50 nic salt is a better match than a high-VG shortfill like this.
Within the dessert category, Donut King competes on how convincingly it recreates real bakery flavours. The DK Cakes line in particular is among the more accurate cake ranges available, and the fried-donut base across the original range is a genuine point of difference from the custard-and-cream desserts most brands default to. If a fried donut stuffed with custard sounds good, few brands do it better.
One honest note on value: at £18.99 for 100ml this sits at the premium end, and dessert flavours are polarising, so it is worth trying a single bottle before committing to a favourite. Steeping rewards patience here more than with simple fruits, so give the richer flavours a few days before you judge them.
If you want a vape that genuinely tastes like a bakery, Donut King is one of the more convincing dessert ranges out there. It only makes sense in a sub-ohm tank, and dessert flavours are polarising, so it is a try-a-bottle range rather than a blind-buy.
