Frequently asked
Does Donut King Australia use seed oils?
Based on our menu research, Donut King Australia cooks with: vegetable oil blend and beef tallow. Across the 116 menu items we analyzed, it averages 1.2g estimated PUFA per item, earning a seed-oil grade of A (Low Risk).
What oil does Donut King Australia cook with?
Our research indicates: two different fats, both named by Donut King's own Nutrition & Allergen manual. The CAKE donuts fried in store use "shortening frying (animal fat (beef tallow))" - the manual prints "Cinnamon Donut" and "Cinnamon Donut (Vegetable Oil)" with identical cells at 39% saturated, which is the tallow recipe - while the bought-in yeast rings, scrolls and eclairs are fried in PALM and the newest bought-in base lists palm plus canola. Corrected 2026-09-18 from "vegetable frying oil, primarily palm oil": palm is right for the bought-in range and wrong for the donuts the store fries itself, which carry almost no PUFA. Preparation can vary by location, so treat PUFA numbers as estimates.
Does Donut King Australia use beef tallow?
Yes, at least for some items. Our research indicates: vegetable oil blend and beef tallow. Beef tallow is far lower in PUFA than seed oils.

What are seed oils?
Seed oils — canola, soybean, sunflower, corn, and similar vegetable oils — are extracted from seeds using high heat and chemical solvents. They are very high in polyunsaturated fats (PUFAs), which are unstable at cooking temperatures and can oxidize easily. Many health-conscious eaters choose to minimize seed oils and prefer foods cooked in beef tallow, butter, coconut oil, or olive oil instead. This page shows estimated PUFA grams per menu item to help you make more informed choices. These are estimates — actual values vary by preparation and location. New to the topic?
