What to make of a chocolate bagel?

B Bagel Bakery makes their bagels the old-skool way: hand-rolled, boiled and baked, With locations in Soho, Fulham and Tottenham Court Road, it’s my go-to resource in the heart of London for plain, sesame, poppy, onion or everything bagels you can sink your teeth into. They’re tough and chewy, in a good way, not bready and mushy.

But chocolate bagels? Dark chocolate dark chocolate chip bagels? That’s another kettle of, well, bagels.

I got news for you, B Bagel: A bagel is not a doughnut, despite their comparable shape, nor is a doughnut a bagel. I have no more enthusiasm for a chocolate chocolate chip bagel than I do for an everything doughnut. Onion, sesame, poppy and garlic on a doughtnut? Come on!

And yet, this limited edition chocolate bagel is impressive and maybe even deserving of permanent status. All it needs is the right schmear, the right filling. In the comments below, tell us what you would spread over the cut sides of a B Bagel chocolate bagel. It’s a new world, anything goes. Salty. Sugary. You can even raid the doughnut pantry for jam, vanilla custard or rainbow sprinkles.
