To help Americans celebrate the total solar eclipse on Monday, April 8, Krispy Kreme is set to debut its limited time Total Solar Eclipse Doughnut. It features 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.
Krispy Kreme’s Total Solar Eclipse Doughnut will be available Friday, April 5 through Monday, April 8 in-shop and for pickup or delivery via Krispy Kreme’s app and website while supplies last. The doughnut can be purchased individually and as a specialty dozen featuring six Total Solar Eclipse doughnuts and six Original Glazed doughnuts.
The last time the United States experienced a total solar eclipse in 2017, Krispy Kreme celebrated the event by “eclipsing” its iconic Original Glazed doughnut in chocolate glaze for the first time ever.
“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,” says Dave Skena, global chief brand officer for Krispy Kreme.
