Krispy Kreme brings back fan-favorite doughnut — for three days. What to know
A Krispy Kreme fan-favorite has been missing from menus since 2023, and now it’s staging a sweet comeback.
Strawberry original glazed doughnuts return to the bakery case Friday, May 30, through Sunday, June 1, as the doughnut brand celebrates Pac-Man’s 45th birthday, Krispy Kreme said in a news release.
A nod to the classic video game character’s love of fruit, the treat is an original glazed doughnut with a “vibrant strawberry glaze,” a product description says.
Krispy Kreme fans reached a “high score” and helped the chain give away more than 45,000 free glazed doughnuts during Hot Light hours this month, unlocking the strawberry glazed doughnut’s return, McClatchy News reported.
The fruity pastry was introduced in 2020, and this marks only the fourth time that it’s been brought back, Krispy Kreme said.
Strawberry original glazed doughnuts will be available in-store, in the drive-thru and online at participating Krispy Kreme shops nationwide.
