Krispy Kreme Seasonal Donuts


Popped into Krispy Kreme this weekend and noticed that they had 3 seasonal donuts. One is cream filled with a pirate design, made especially for 'Talk Like A Pirate Day' 9/19. The other two were Fall flavors, including their classic Pumpkin Spice glazed old-fashioned cake donut (that I look for every year), along with a new Pumpkin Cheesecake filled donut with cream cheese icing and a gingersnap cookie crumble. All were devilishly delicious, but I still have to say that the Pumpkin Spice is my favorite! Along with these Fall specials, Krispy Kreme also has a line of Halloween themed donuts, which will be available by October, so keep an eye out!
