A Kmart appliance is going viral online after people have started to share an incredible hack to make delicious treats.

The $20 Sausage Roll Maker has always been a cult buy from the bargain retailer, with over 630 five-star reviews on the company’s website.

However, people have started to think outside the box with the non-stick appliance and are now showing off their doughnut creations in a Kmart Facbeook group online.

She said she used Betty Crocker cake mix (made to instructions), strawberries sliced, and caramel buds finely chopped.

She also cooked it in her sausage roll maker for seven minutes and let them cool completely before slicing them.

To garnish her doughnuts, she put icing sugar in the middle and adding strawberries before scattering a dusting of icing and caramel buds.
