Full Proof, a new hole-in-the-wall doughnut shop, has opened in Potts Point, Sydney, featuring sourdough doughnuts dusted with chicken salt [1, 2].
The establishment introduces a novel savory-sweet contrast to the city's dessert scene by pairing a staple Australian seasoning with fried dough. This approach targets the local "foodie" market by reimagining a traditional snack as a herby, savory experience [1, 2].
Located on Llankelly Place, the shop specializes in hand-shaped sourdough doughnut rings [1, 2]. These rings are fried to order and finished with a coating of chicken salt to create a plush, herby snack [1, 2].
While the savory options are a primary draw, the menu also includes traditional sweet varieties. The shop offers doughnuts filled with jam and cream, which are also fried to order [1, 2].
The business launched shortly before May 25, 2026 [1]. By focusing on a limited, high-quality selection of hand-shaped doughs, the shop aims to establish itself as a destination for unique textures and flavors in the Sydney dining landscape [1, 2].

The emergence of Full Proof reflects a broader culinary trend of 'savory-sweet' blurring, where traditional confectionery is infused with regional savory profiles. By utilizing sourdough and frying to order, the shop positions itself within the artisanal movement, moving away from mass-produced doughnuts toward a more curated, chef-driven approach to street food.
