I love Dolly Parton, but she is everywhere these days! She has cake mixes, dog clothes, perfume, books, music, and so much more. Where will we see her face next? At Krispy Kreme, of course.
The doughnut giant is singing Dolly Parton’s praises with four doughnuts dedicated to her Southern sweet treats for a limited time!
“Having some of my very favorite southern flavors in one, unique doughnut collection from Krispy Kreme is so special to me,” Parton said. “These doughnuts remind me of home. So, I’m excited for folks to share them with their own family and friends. They’re pretty sweet, if I do say so myself!”
How sweet are they? Read the description and tell me you don’t have a sugar high just from reading that.
Dolly Dazzler – an Original Glazed® Doughnut dipped in strawberry icing, with gold, pink and white glitter sprinkles and a signature chocolate Dolly butterfly piece.
Peachy Keen Cobbler – an unglazed doughnut filled with real peach filling, dipped in brown sugar icing and crunchy cobbler topping.
Banana Puddin’ – an unglazed doughnut filled with banana pudding made with wafers and banana pudding KREME, dipped in yellow icing, with white icing swirls and wafer cookie pieces.
Chocolate Crème Pie – an Original Glazed® doughnut topped with a swirl of chocolate brownie cream and vanilla whipped topping, sprinkled with chocolate cookie crumble.
To celebrate the Dolly Doughs, Krispy Kreme wants us to dress up as the Country legend on Saturday to get a free glazed donut. Don’t have anything Dolly to wear? Then you can sing one of her songs. I will be singing PMS Blues because I am PMSing and need something sweet and full of fat!
On May 17th, imaginary friends come to life in IF. And from now until June 16th, you can eat real food inspired by the Ryan Reynolds film at IHOP. Or should I say IfHOP?
“This spring, we are leaning into the nostalgia of having an imaginary friend and celebrating by encouraging our guests to gather with friends, family, and imaginary friends to reconnect and try our imaginative menu,” said Kieran Donahue, Chief Marketing Officer, IHOP. “Our new IF menu brings the magic of the movie to life like only IHOP can – through our iconic pancakes, French toast and new and exciting beverage options. This collaboration is designed to create meaningful experiences for our guests while continuing to serve joy with craveable menu options inspired by timely cultural moments like IF.”
The seven menu items are:
Blue’s Dazzleberry Pancakes: Blue raspberry flavored pancakes topped with vanilla mousse, whipped topping & Fruity Pebbles, available as a full stack or short stack.
Blue’s Dazzleberry Jr. Combo: One Blue’s Dazzleberry Pancake, 1 scrambled egg, 1 pork sausage link & 1 slice of bacon.
Lewis’ Cinn-A-Bear Stack: Buttermilk pancakes with cinnamon spread, cream cheese icing, cinnamon sugar donut holes & whipped topping, available as a full stack or short stack.
MagnIFicent French Toast Sandwich: Folded omelette-style egg, pork sausage patty, hash browns, American cheese & chipotle mayo on French Toast. Served with old-fashioned syrup & choice of side.
Coney Island Pizza Omelette: Pork sausage, green peppers & onions, marinara, crispy pepperoni & four-cheese blend. Served with choice of side.
Blossom’s Orangesicle: A blend of lemonade, lemon-lime soda & vanilla syrup. Garnished with whipped topping, Fruity Pebbles, and a gummi butterfly.
Unbelieva-Blue Soda Pop: A blend of lemon-lime soda & blue raspberry syrup. Garnished with The Original Bomb Pop® that’ll turn your drink purple.
I don’t know what I am more excited about, the movie or this menu. I know what I am going to do. I will go to the International House of Pancakes before I go to the movie theater, see IF, and then go back to the restaurant for seconds.
Do you love Kit Kat bars and wish they came in the form of a donut? For a limited time, Krispy Kreme is selling three Kit Kat-inspired doughnuts.
KIT KAT® Crunch Doughnut – an Original Glazed® Doughnut hand-dipped in rich HERSHEY’S Milk Chocolate icing, finished with chopped KIT KAT® pieces and chocolate flavored crispies.
KIT KAT® Cookie Dream Doughnut – an unglazed doughnut filled with cookie dough flavored Kreme™, hand-dipped in HERSHEY’S Milk Chocolate icing and covered with chopped KIT KAT® pieces, cookie crumbles, and semi-sweet HERSHEY’S chips with a delicate drizzle of cookie dough flavored icing.
KIT KAT® Salted Caramel Brownie Doughnut – an Original Glazed® doughnut topped with brownie batter-flavored buttercream, covered with chopped KIT KAT® and brownie pieces, and finished with salted caramel flavored ribbons.
This sounds like something Kris Kardashian kame up with with all of those Ks, Krispy Kreme Kit Kat doughnuts.
Krispy Kreme has loved space-related events since 1969, when they served donuts at the moon launch viewing site. So they are going to celebrate the Total Solar Eclipse starting on April 5th with a donut.
The Total Solar Eclipse Doughnut is an Original Glazed® Doughnut dipped in black chocolate icing, adorned with silver sprinkles, piped with a buttercream made with OREO® pieces, and a whole OREO® cookie in the center.
“Eclipses are rare and so is our out-of-this-world Total Solar Eclipse Doughnut. Even if you can’t be in the path of totality you can get in the path of these treats, which you will eat in totality. Stop by and get some for you and some to share so you can flex your science side and great taste at the same time,” said Dave Skena, Global Chief Brand Officer for Krispy Kreme.
I can’t wait to eat one of those on the 8th when I look up at the sky to see the sun disappear for four minutes.
Don’t wait too long to try them. Like the Eclipse, they are only available for four days.
On April 8th, there is going to be a Total Eclipse (of the Heart). And Sonic is celebrating the occasion with a Blackout Slush Float.
The Blackout Slush Float features sweet cotton candy and dragon fruit flavored in all-black slush topped with creamy white soft serve and blue and purple galaxy-themed sprinkles. If that doesn’t make you want to Sonic, then how about you get a pair of free eclipse sunglasses with each one?
“There are over 400 SONIC locations in areas where the total solar eclipse will be visible, and we thought, what better way to create some fun for our fans as they experience this unique event than by introducing a new treat that’s as awe-inspiring as the eclipse itself?” said Mackenzie Gibson, Vice President of Culinary & Menu Innovation at SONIC.
The yummy drink will be available longer than the Eclipse, but not much longer. So don’t hesitate to try one because they are only available from today until May 5th or while supplies last.
