Toffee Hut will welcome Derby-based Project D for the tasty, three-hour session at its newly-opened Regent Street premises on Thursday, May 6.
It is the first time the growing doughnut company has held an event in the town and Toffee Hut owner Rachel Richards says she is looking forward to hosting it.

“I am very excited and delighted they chose the Toffee Hut to host their first Mansfield pop up.”
Rachel opened the town centre shop following the success of her online business she launched two years ago – which attracted large wholesale orders and interest from world famous names such as Harrods.
Now she is hoping next week’s pop up event with Project D will serve up a tasty treat for sweet-toothed locals.

The firm currently delivers to doorsteps as far away as Leeds and Birmingham and plans to widen its routes across the rest of the country

"We are thrilled to be in the town and we are going to have a special pop up box to mark it – but it’s a surprise. We’re asking people to keep an eye on our social media.”
Project D doughnuts will be available for three hours, from 10am-1pm, on Thursday, May 6.
