 WHY NUT
A donut with a special ingredients combination - American Peanut Butter filling and premium 
White Chocolate topping, which contains anti-oxidants that prevent cancer and heart attack.

MISS GREEN T
A Unique taste is what you should expect from this Green Tea Donut.
It is because this donut uses macha tea ( the best green tea variant) specifically imported from Japan.
Miss Green T is another product full of health benefits. 
The tea leaves are steamed, dried and then grounded powder. Green tea is believed to be beneficial for both health and beauty since it is rich in Vitamin E. 
Also, catechin in green tea is a very strong antioxidant.

 GLAZZY
Sweet honey glazed donut with all the goodness of honey
 CHEESE ME UP
Made with melted New Zealand cheese on top, 
this donut is not only delectable but it is also definitely healthy
Cheese along with milk and yogurt provides a unique combination of nutrients, offers many health benefits including the improvement of bone health and reducing high blood pressure. Calcium and protein are undeniably positive for the growth of bones in children.
 FOREST GLAM
Black forest sensation and cherry-licious choco sprinkles
 COCO LOCO

 One of my favorite - a savory donut, the filling is like a patte, topped with meat and drizzled with hot sauce or catsup? I really dont know what it is, but definitely will order that on the next visit.

I love the cafe concept
All my favorites in one cafe, the donuts, frappe, sandwich and frozen yogurt :)
Now I'm loving J.CO! another great place to hangout and spend time with friends.


Thumbs Up for J.Co!
Yummy donuts
Friendly staff
Im sure it's going to be a hit for everyone.
