I have recently been having a debate (with myself) about the name of the classic sugar coated doughnut with a hole in the middle. Is it a ring doughnut, or is it a doughring? I think I refer to it as the latter, but I am not sure and feel I may use them interchangeably.

Can anyone help clear up this, and any other naming issues that trouble us!
Doughring.

In bakeries back in the day, you would get a choice of a jam doughnut or a chocolate or sugar coated doughring.

If you were really in the money you could get a cream finger, which was a finger shaped doughnut, cut down the middle and filled with cream and a bit of jam.
