Krispy Kreme doughnut lovers are in luck this month.
As Food & Wine reports, the beloved doughnut chain is introducing four all-new new specialty doughnuts just in time for all your St. Patrick’s Day celebration plans. Beyond that, it’s also bringing back its massively popular O’riginal Glazed Doughnut — note the apostrophe — for the holiday. (For the uninitiated, the O’riginal Glazed Doughnut is simply a green version of the chain’s Original Glazed and it’s “dipped in green icing, rainbow explosion sprinkle blend, and topped with a buttercream cloud.”)
Beginning March 11, customers can get the St. Patrick’s Day-themed treats at participating stores for a limited time. And from March 15 to March 17 (the actual holiday), anyone wearing green to a Krispy Kreme shop or drive-through will receive a free O’riginal Glazed Doughnut with no purchase necessary. “Luck is meant to be shared, and our colorful, fun, all-new St. Patrick’s Day doughnuts will make everyone feel like they’ve found a pot of gold,” said Dave Skena, global chief brand officer for Krispy Kreme, in a press statement.
Among the chain’s new St. Patrick’s Day creations are:
Luck of the Rainbow Doughnut: an original glazed doughnut dipped in green icing, rainbow explosion sprinkle blend, and topped with a buttercream cloud.
Shamrock Cookies ‘N Kreme Made With Oreo Cookies: an unglazed shell filled with cookies and Kreme filling made with Oreo cookies, dipped in white icing with green drizzles and St. Patrick’s fusion sprinkles.
Plaid Party Doughnut: an unglazed shell filled with white Kreme filling, dipped in chocolate icing, and drizzled with green icing.
Shooting Shamrock Doughnut: an Original Glazed Doughnut dipped in light green icing with a green icing swirl, topped with a shamrock sugar piece.
According to Krispy Kreme, its four new flavors will be available for delivery or pickup via its app and website. And customers will also be able to find six-packs at certain supermarkets nationwide.
