RM1 pandan donuts at every Big Apple outlet in Malaysia, 10⁠–⁠31 October 2026, as the 100th store opens in Puchong

Nationwide, the brand says. Its own store directory, though, doesn't carry a single outlet entry in Penang, Perlis or Labuan.

Text: the line at the top reads 'Trending · Malaysia', the large heading reads 'RM1 each', the line below it reads '100 a day at every outlet', the bottom left of the photograph reads 'Image: Big Apple Donuts & Coffee', and the foot of the card reads 'Every corner, everywhere.', 'HiGo Corner Journal', 'higo.shop'.

A donut for RM1 is the kind of price you act on without thinking — until you read the conditions attached to it.

From 10 to 31 October 2026, two pandan donuts — Ola Pandan and Dreamy Pandan — are RM1 each at every Big Apple outlet in Malaysia: 100 pieces per store a day, while stocks last, and in-store only, so not on delivery apps. The offer marks the brand's 100th store in Malaysia, which opened at IOI Mall Puchong on 10 October 2026. Big Apple Donuts & Coffee's own post

The official terms say the RM1 price applies to those two flavours only, and that there is no limit per customer — the cap sits on the store, not on the buyer.

The brand's official product banner: a gold background with gold balloons and streamers. On the left, a donut beside a dark green label in white type reading 'DREAMY PANDAN' — green glaze scattered with crumbs, a swirl of white cream on top and a white drizzle across it; on the right, a donut beside a label reading 'OLA PANDAN' — green glaze covered in green coconut-like shreds with a swirl of white cream on top. The type in the middle reads '100TH', 'STORE CELEBRATION', '10/10/2026 - 31/10/2026', 'ONLY RM1.00' and 'While stock lasts!'

What stands out

  • 100 pieces per store a day, while stocks last. The official wording gives each store 100 of the RM1 pandan donuts a day, while stocks last. From 10 to 31 October 2026, that is the daily number.
  • In-store only, so not on delivery apps. The FAQ in the brand's own post and the terms both say it, and they say the same thing.
  • No limit per customer; the limit sits on the store. The official terms read “No limit per customer”, and the line next to it gives the 100 pieces per store a day, while stocks last. What limits you is the store's 100 a day, not a cap on each buyer.
  • Only the two pandan flavours cost RM1. Ola Pandan is a fragrant pandan glaze topped with a creamy vanilla swirl; Dreamy Pandan is a sweet pandan glaze with a creamy vanilla topping and a drizzle. The terms say the RM1 price applies to those two only.
  • The 100th store is at IOI Mall Puchong. The official wording puts the 100th store on Saturday, 10 October 2026, with the official opening at 13:00, at unit EFK-03 on the first floor of South Court, 47170 Puchong, Selangor.
  • The brand's first store, in 2007, was at The Curve. That store opened in 2007 at The Curve, Mutiara Damansara, Petaling Jaya, and the 100th follows 19 years later in Puchong; the network takes in both company-owned and franchised stores, and the brand counts 2027 as its 20th anniversary.
The brand's official opening photograph: six men stand in a row outside a store inside a mall, each holding a pair of gold scissors; a gold ribbon is stretched in front of them with a gold rosette tied at its centre, and a person in black stands at either end holding the ribbon, each also holding a gold rosette. The shopfront sign is on yellow, with 'KAFE' in brown and 'BIG APPLE' and 'DONUTS & COFFEE' in raised white letters, with lit menu boards below it; a column of red, gold and white balloons stands on each side. A gold poster stand on the left carries '100TH STORE CELEBRATION', '10/10/2026 - 31/10/2026' and 'ONLY RM1.00'.

What it costs

  • RM1 each: from 10 to 31 October 2026, at every outlet in Malaysia, on Ola Pandan and Dreamy Pandan only. As of 12 October 2026, that is the price in the official material.
  • The official material puts no usual price on either flavour. The official menu page carries no prices, and neither does the press release, so there is no official figure for what the two normally cost, or for what they cost after 31 October 2026.

Questions readers ask

  • What time do the 100 RM1 donuts go on sale, and are they restocked? The official material doesn't say; the one piece of official guidance is to come early.
  • What hours does the new store keep? The official material gives no opening hours.
  • Delivery apps are out — what about self-collection? On this offer the official wording says one thing: in-store purchases only, not available on delivery apps. The 'ORDER ONLINE' item in the brand's own navigation opens links to GrabFood, Shopee Food and foodpanda. The official site does carry two other ordering routes: 'BULK ORDER' (the bulk-order page puts the minimum at 20 dozen boxes while the site's separate FAQ page puts it at 10 dozen boxes, and the two do not match, for donuts pre-ordered for collection at any store of your choice, by phone or QR code) and a linked e-gift voucher shop — but neither of them mentions this RM1 offer, and the official material does not say whether the offer can be collected that way.
  • How much do you save at RM1? There is no figure to work from: the official material puts no usual price on either flavour.
  • Are the donuts halal-certified? The FAQ in the brand's own post answers yes, the brand's products are halal-certified. A separate official page says the brand's Shariah Advisory Council oversees the whole chain of its halal manufacturing to meet JAKIM's Halal Certification requirements, and that JAKIM's halal logo is on all of its product packaging.

Press release only: another 10 stores in 2027

The lines below appear only in the brand's press release of 10 October 2026, not in the post on its own site. The brand's press release (10 October 2026)

  • In the release, managing director Yasuo Mizoguchi says the brand plans to open another 10 stores across Malaysia in 2027, and that its ambition is to “work towards becoming the number one donut brand in Malaysia”.
  • He also says in the release: “One hundred stores is a milestone, not a finish line.”

Where to buy

  • Start on the official directory: find the outlet nearest you, and the state it sits in. Big Apple's official store directory (Malaysia)
  • Penang, Perlis and Labuan: no outlet entry on the directory. The filter on the directory's Malaysia page lists just 13 places: 11 states — Johor, Kedah, Kelantan, Melaka, Negeri Sembilan, Pahang, Perak, Sabah, Sarawak, Selangor and Terengganu — plus the federal territories of Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya. Penang (Pulau Pinang), Perlis and Labuan have no outlet entry on it, while the RM1 offer, in the brand's own words, runs at every outlet nationwide.
  • The new store's address on the directory: Lot EFK-03, First Floor, IOI Mall Puchong, Jalan Puchong, Bandar Puchong Jaya, 47170 Puchong, Selangor. Two more Puchong outlets sit on the same directory: Aeon Big Puchong Utama, at Lot FK03 & FK04, AEON Big Puchong Utama, Persiaran Puchong Permai, Taman Puchong Prima, 47100 Puchong, Selangor; and Lotus's Puchong, at Lot 14B, Level G, Lotus's Puchong, No. 148, Jalan Bandar 3, Pusat Bandar Puchong, 47100 Puchong, Selangor.
  • Selangor has the most entries, 33 of them; the fewest are Kelantan with 2 and Putrajaya with 1.
  • The directory carries 101 store entries and the brand's post says “100th store”; both figures are here as they stand.

Before you go

  • If the RM1 price is what you're after: it runs from 10 to 31 October 2026, in-store only, on Ola Pandan and Dreamy Pandan only, and each store has 100 pieces a day, while stocks last. The one piece of official advice is to come early.
  • If you live in Penang, Perlis or Labuan: the official store directory carries no outlet entry in any of the three, so look up the nearest outlet on the directory before setting off.
  • If you're heading for the new store at IOI Mall Puchong: it is unit EFK-03 on the first floor of South Court; the official material gives no opening hours and doesn't say what time the 100 pieces go on sale.
