Barbie Inspires Latest Pinkbox Doughnut Of The Month
Just like Barbie, the newest doughnut at Pinkbox is…well…everything.
If you live in Southern Nevada and have never been to a Pinkbox, chances are you’re living under a rock. The first location was established in Las Vegas in 2012, and ever since then, the iconic doughnut shop has been delighting customers. Because they famously combine America’s favorite treat with the imagination of a culinary artist.
The first Pinkbox location was so popular that Southern Nevada begged for expansion. So, in 2015, the second location was opened in Henderson. Now there are 10 locations across Las Vegas, Pahrump, and Laughlin. They even spread to Utah when they opened a St. George location in August 2022. And if you’ve ever been to that one, you know how long the lines get.
Pinkbox Doughnuts brings customers of all kinds to their famous shops. Because they offer something for everyone. Standards like Apple Fritters and Maple Bars. Cinnamon Rolls and Glazed Classics. Even specialty coffee drinks. But what gets people lining up at their stores is the more imaginative selection they offer.
Creativity is always fresh at Pinkbox, and customers have made it a ritual to check out what new doughnut they have invented. From doughnuts with cereal on them to a unique Pink Velvet take on the traditional red velvet cake.
Pinkbox announces their August doughnut of the month.
Locals love to see what the Doughnut of the Month is going to be at Pinkbox. This month it’s no surprise that they’ve gone for something pink. Barbie has taken over the universe since the Barbie movie was released. And this month’s Pink Lemonade doughnut at Pinkbox is a perfect combo of Barbie and summer.
Pinkbox made the announcement of this month’s flavor earlier this week on their Facebook page. The newest creation is filled with raspberry lemon cream and topped with pink lemonade sugar.
The new Pink Lemonade doughnut is only available for a limited time and available at all 11 locations.

7 Ways To Make Your House Barbie Fabulous
1. A Pink Modern Sofa

Barbie’s style varies between Midcentury Modern and Contemporary. For a more modern look, find a sofa like the one above, that has clean lines and thin legs. And, of course, make sure it’s pink!
Or A Contemporary One
If contemporary is more your style, then you’ll want something like this set. With interesting, curved lines. But again, make sure it’s pink.

2. Get Your "Tone On Tone" On

Barbie is all about the pink, obviously. So make sure you have plenty of it. And it’s totally fine (and even necessary) to do pink on pink in your decorating. However, I would accent this pink-washed room with some pops of other color in the throw pillows. Try a light yellow, baby blue or lavender for a very Barbie look.
3. Get Creative With Your Decor

If you want to live in a dreamhouse, you have think outside the box. Instead of a vase or bowl as an accent piece, why not have pink heels adding style? Just find a pair like this and strategically place them where they can add some Barbie flair to the room. A definite conversation starter!
4. Hot Pink Accents

While Barbie is very “tone on tone” with her home, that just means pink on pink. It doesn’t all have to be the same pink. In fact, it’s better that it’s not. Barbie is famous for mixing her baby pinks with hot pinks. So find some throw pillows or other accent pieces in various shades of pink.
5. Don't be shy with the Plush
Remember that Barbie is all about her plush, furry or fuzzy fabrics. So use them generously. Make sure you have a healthy mix of velvets like this headboard…

But remember that Barbie’s signature shade of pink is the lighter baby pink. Use the darker pinks as accents and not the main feature. The exception to this rule is the kitchen and pool area.
6. Use plenty of whimsy

If nothing else, Barbie is playful. Of course, duh, she’s a kid’s toy. So don’t skimp on the fun stuff in your decor. Our favorite is something like this. A chandelier that looks like bubbles. Hang it above your bathtub for a bath worthy of a dreamhouse.
7. Plastic Makes Perfect

You may have noticed that there is no shortage of plastic in Barbie’s world. That’s kind of a given. So use it in your decor to bring in that dollhouse feel. One major place you should be using it is in your dining room furniture. Barbie isn’t a wood girl when it comes to her furniture. She loves her some plastic. Like this midcentury modern dining chair.
Again, go for pink in the table and chairs. And use an aqua vase on the table paired with yellow or hot pink accents in the diningware.
