Hot cinnamon doughnuts sold from the back of a 1960s Land Rover.

Hot cinnamon doughnuts are famously sold from a van in Berry. In Mudgee, they come from the back of a 1960s Land Rover. The vintage trayback has been refitted for food service, complete with a La Marzocco espresso machine and deep-fryer, which turns out fluffy, sugar-crusted doughnuts to order.

Most days, the forest-green ute sits in a paddock in Budgee Budgee, about 10 minutes out of town, alongside a restored train carriage where you can sit and eat them straight from the fryer. Other days, you might spot the Land Rover on the move, heading to pop-up events, markets and festivals around town.
