They are two of Canada's best-known music personalities, but soon they will be handed an even more supreme power: to choose the country's next best donut.
Tim Hortons has just launched its third annual Duelling Donuts contest, which has thousand of Canadians offering up their best spin on the holey pastry.
This year, participants are being asked to propose a donut inspired by a family recipe.
The eight quarterfinalists will have their donut creations judged by a panel of famous Canadians, among them Deadmau5 — who did a whole video series that involved taking Canadian celebs to Tim Horton's for coffee — as well as Jann Arden and Sophie Tweed-Simmons (daughter of KISS rocker Gene Simmons).
The Canadian public will then vote on which two donuts will be sold in Tim Hortons in the new year. The most popular donut takes home a $10,000 grand prize.
Last year, nearly 77,000 people entered.
“If last year was any indication, my fellow judges will soon know just how hard it is to pick the best four donuts," said Arden in a release, "but I’m sure they’ll enjoy getting there!”
Starting this week, Canadians can visit DuellingDonuts.ca to enter. Deadline is July 21.
