Krispy Kreme heads to Who-ville for its new holiday doughnut collection

While he might be a mean one, the Grinch does have a sweet side under all that gruff. This year’s Krispy Kreme holiday doughnut collection channels the Grinch. This sweet food offering will capture everyone’s hearts this holiday season.

Every year, Krispy Kreme unwraps a gift of holiday deliciousness. From Elf inspired to seasonal inspired flavors, opening that box is the gift anyone would be happy to receive.

This year’s holiday doughnut collection is all about the Grinch. While the iconic character might be a fan of onions and other stinky food choices, this Krispy Kreme offering focuses on classic flavors.

Additionally, it is all about the visual. For that overflowing dessert table, these doughnuts will get everyone’s attention.

As Dave Skena, Krispy Kreme Global Chief Brand Officer said, “Who wants to celebrate Christmas with Krispy Kreme?! Our Merry Grinchmas doughnuts are guaranteed to make even the Grinchiest Grinch smile. At Krispy Kreme, you’re a sweet one, Mr. Grinch!”

What are the doughnut flavors in the Merry Grinchmas Doughnut Collection?

According to Krispy Kreme, the Merry Grinchmas Doughnut Collection features three new doughnuts and one returning favorite. The new doughnuts are: Grinch Doughnut, Grinchy Claus Doughnut, and Cindy-Lou Who Merry Berry Tree Doughnut. Also, the iconic Santa Belly Doughnut returns.

The Grinchy Doughnut captures the iconic visual. While the doughnut might be filled with “coal,” (actually Cookies and Kreme), it is a fun interpretation of the classic. This idea channels a concept that has taken over the food world. An old favorite with a visual makeover just tastes better.

The Grinchy Claus Doughnut is all the about the textures. While the chocolate icing and white buttercreme is sweet, the Christmas crispies add some whimsy. That touch of crunch leads to eating satisfaction.

Lastly, the Cindy-Lou Who Merry Berry Tree Doughnut captures the big heart of the classic character. It might not be quite as tall as her hairdo, but it feels like the wonder of the holiday that she loves. Plus, strawberry lovers will appreciate this flavor.

Of course, the holiday would not be complete without the Santa Belly Doughnut. Many people have switched those traditional cookies and milk for Christmas Eve doughnuts. It is definitely Santa approved.

Also, the Holiday Sprinkle Doughnut is back, too. Everyone loves a holiday sprinkle.

The Krispy Kreme Merry Grinchmas Doughnut Collection and other holiday doughnuts will be available starting on November 29. Check with local stores availability and pricing.
