Krispy Kreme
Remember when Fall started after Labor Day? Well, at Krispy Kreme, Pumpkin Spice, aka Autumn, will be done by then.
Yesterday, the donut shop launched its Pumpkin Spice menu which includes four donuts (one new one) and two new coffee drinks.
NEW Pumpkin Spice Latte Swirl Doughnut: A Pumpkin Spice Doughnut dipped in a pumpkin spice/sugar blend and topped with a swirl of vanilla and coffee buttercream.
Pumpkin Spice Original Glazed® Doughnut: A classic Original Glazed doughnut with a pumpkin spice twist.
Pumpkin Spice Original Filled Cheesecake Doughnut: A Pumpkin Spice Original Glazed doughnut with creamy cheesecake filling decorated with cheesecake icing.
Pumpkin Spice Cake Doughnut: A perfectly spiced old-fashioned cake doughnut covered in iconic glaze.
Pumpkin Spice Latte: A latte flavored with pumpkin pie sauce, topped with whipped cream and pumpkin spice seasoning – available hot, iced or frozen.
NEW Pumpkin Spice Iced Coffee: Iced Coffee blended with pumpkin pie sauce.
Why are they starting the season before most kids are back in school? “Sure, pumpkin spice is generally associated with fall, but true fans of the flavor will agree that August is close enough! So, we’re pulling fall forward, enabling our guests to indulge and enjoy early with delicious pumpkin spice doughnuts and drinks, including our Pumpkin Spice Latte, which you can get iced or frozen, by the way,” said Dave Skena, Global Chief Brand Officer for Krispy Kreme.
If Krispy Kreme debuts its Peppermint menu in September, I will boycott them. Not really, but I will say I will. I will do it because if now they will start celebrating Easter in January, and if the Groundhog hasn’t foreshadowed how many weeks until Spring, we cannot celebrate the season then. That sounded like a gpod excuse, didn’t it?
Back to this month’s donuts, you can get a free Pumpkin Spice one with any purchase today only.
