Krispy Kreme makes summer sweeter with new Pick of the Patch doughnuts
Just like the farmer’s market is full of fresh fruit, the Krispy Kreme Pick of the Patch doughnuts are making summer even sweeter. With the four new flavors, these doughnuts bring a taste of newstalgia. From the classic summer desserts to the juicy berries that capture summer freshness, the Pick of the Patch doughnuts will bring smiles all around.
When Krispy Kreme rolls out new doughnut flavors, it captures the sentiment of the moment. Beyond the pretty visual that makes people want to sneak a peek, it is the taste that looks to capture a moment, recall a feeling, or just bring a sweet smile to the day.
With summer fun waiting to be enjoyed, the Pick of the Patch doughnuts are inspired by the classic seasonal flavors. As Dave Skena, Chief Marketing Officer for Krispy Kreme said, “We were inspired by farmer’s markets, fruit stands and berry patches when we created our new Pick of the Patch doughnuts.”
What are the Krispy Kreme Pick of the Patch doughnuts?
The four flavors are Mixed Berry Cobbler, Blueberry Cheesecake, Strawberry Shortcake and Mixed Berry Glazed. In some ways, the flavors almost sound like a dessert menu.
Looking at the Mixed Berry Glazed, this flavor might be one that fans petition to keep as a glazed choice all summer long. While there have been fruit glazes previously, the berry combination with the iconic glazed doughnut makes for the perfect bite.
Even though not part of the menu, consider making a custom dessert with these doughnuts. A version of an ice cream sandwich might be the backyard barbecue dessert that everyone talks about.
Then again, just pairing the Mixed Berry Glazed doughnut with a cup of tea might be a lovely treat. Instead of another latte, consider a hibiscus tea with the doughnut for a refreshing start to the day.
As for the other three Pick of the Patch doughnuts, they bring the sweetness with the fresh berries. For example, the Mixed Berry Cobbler might keep grandma from baking this summer. Topped with shortbread crumbles, brown sugar icing and Mixed Berry Cobbler filling, it captures all those classic flavors on a doughnut.
Even the Blueberry Cheesecake doughnut has those favorite flavors. With the Blueberry Cheesecake filling, blueberry icing and shortbread crumbles for texture, it transforms that classic summer dessert.
Lastly, the Strawberry Shortcake might be the winner of the group. The Sour Cream Cake doughnut stands up to the strawberry filling and vanilla buttercream swirl. Each bite seems to capture that layered flavor of a traditional Strawberry Shortcake. Many people will find an excuse to serve these doughnuts for dessert at the backyard barbecue.
The Krispy Kreme Pick of the Patch Doughnuts are available now. The limited time flavors are available while supplies last. In addition, starting on June 10, the Mixed Berry Glazed doughnuts can be purchased individually or by the dozen Fridays through Sundays.
