The Doughnutfruit is a popular type of Tropical Food from Mystery Island. It gets its name from the shape of the fruit, which resembles a ring doughnut, and that many varieties possess a similar taste to various confectioneries, including doughnuts and muffins.

The fruit, as featured in Hasee Bounce, is one of the staple foods of the colony of Hasees on Mystery Island. The PetPets developed a see-saw mechanism in order to reach the fruit, which grows high up in the Island's canopies. Commercially, the number of varieties of different Doughnutfruit have encouraged a collectors trade in them - indeed, there is even a book, Doughnutfruit Collectors Guide, for this very purpose. In addition to being eaten as a fruit, they can be used in hot drinks and as a sandwich filling. The Doughnutfruit is also in many plushie forms as well.

That the Doughnutfruit is only seen in hot drinks and not fruit juices suggests it could be similar to the aubergine or banana.
