What are the new Krispy Kreme Pac-Man doughnut flavors? ‘

Available now for a limited time, the Krispy Kreme Pac-Man doughnuts include three flavors, Pac-Man Party Doughnut, Team Ghost Doughnut, and Strawberry Power Berry Doughnut. As the names suggest, the visuals that reference the game are clear.

Looking at the three doughnuts, the Team Ghost Doughnut is the most successful. Filled with chocolate flavored Kreme, the visual captures the essence of the game. From the maze to the Team Ghosts pieces, this food captures the essence of the iconic video game. Eating a few of these doughnuts will definitely level up the sweet level.

Channeling the iconic character, the Pac-Man Party Doughnut brings the visual of everyone’s favorite video game character. The Original Glazed Doughnut is decorated to bring that bright yellow visual. Just like the character, itself, everyone will want to gobble up these doughnuts.

Lastly, the Strawberry Power Berry Doughnut is the treat that even non-video game players will want to enjoy. Filled with strawberry flavored Kreme, it is sweet but not too overwhelming. Designed to look like the fruit, it is that fun visual which gets people to snap a photo before devouring the first bite.

To celebrate the Krispy Kreme Pac-Man doughnuts, the beloved doughnut brand wants to game-ify the limited edition doughnuts. If the brand gives away 45,000 Original Glazed between May 12 and May 18, the “high score” will unlock a special treat, return of Krispy Kreme’s popular Strawberry Glazed Doughnut. Everyone will have to watch socials for updates.
