Introduction to Krispy Kreme’s Menu Overhaul

Krispy Kreme is overhauling its O-shaped offerings. On Nov. 3, the chain announced it is expanding its doughnut menu, adding six new permanent flavors and three new limited-time ones. Its permanent menu is growing from 10 to 16 full-sized doughnuts — and they’re all available starting today.

Krispy Kreme says it has been testing this all-star roster for more than a year. The new slate includes trending flavors, flavors customers begged for on social media and popular limited-time doughnuts that have now been promoted.

The Inspiration Behind the Menu Expansion

In honor of the menu expansion, the chain tapped Grammy-winning singer Montell Jordan to remake his hit “This is How We Do It” into a doughnut-centric song, which will appear on social media.
The nine new doughnuts join the iconic Original Glazed doughnut and six other classic varieties, available individually and by the dozen.

Statement from Krispy Kreme’s Chief Brand and Product Officer

“We are so excited to introduce nine new flavors to our lineup so everyone can build a dozen that is as unique as they are,” Alison Holder, Krispy Kreme’s chief brand and product officer, said in a press release. “We are bringing more variety, more flavor and most importantly more choice, and we can’t wait for consumers to show us how they dozen!”

Doughnuts Being Discontinued
