Key Takeaways
- One of Krispy Kreme’s rarest glazed doughnuts is headed back to menus for the second time this year.
- The fan-favorite doughnut will be available from Sept. 11 to Sept. 14.
There’s no denying that Krispy Kreme is a busy place. It almost seems like there are new, limited-edition doughnut flavors being introduced monthly, along with amazing savings for customers.
While it’s hard to resist a cheesecake-stuffed doughnut or an adorably decorated Pacman-inspired doughnut, we can’t forget what put Krispy Kreme on the map: The Original Glazed Doughnut.
No matter how many specialty doughnuts we eat, we can’t help but go back to the OG every once in a while. And we’re not the only ones—celebrity chef David Chang and “Today” weatherman Al Roker have both shared their love for a classic glazed doughnut in the past. Plus, now that we know the official way to reheat those day-old glazed beauties, our morning coffee and doughnut routine is unstoppable.
The classic glazed doughnut is ever an icon, but that doesn’t mean we’ve forgotten Krispy Kreme’s other glazed offerings: the strawberry- and chocolate-glazed doughnuts.
Earlier this year, Krispy Kreme brought back the bright pink strawberry-glazed doughnut for a limited time after fans “unlocked” it in its “Pacman Power-Up.” Now, it’s bringing back an even rarer glazed favorite.
Krispy Kreme Brings Back Chocolate Glazed Doughnut
Krispy Kreme
Krispy Kreme’s Chocolate Glazed Doughnut was originally released in 2017 to celebrate the solar eclipse, then brought back in 2018 as part of World Chocolate Day. After a six-year hiatus, Krispy Kreme brought it back last summer, thanks to the excitement of its fans. Then, the brand quietly reintroduced these treats to stores in July—but only for one day.
To celebrate International Chocolate Day, which falls on Sept. 13, the Chocolate Glazed Doughnut will make a brief comeback this weekend. The Chocolate Glazed Doughnut will be available by the dozen and individually in stores across the U.S., online, and through Krispy Kreme’s app from Sept. 11 to Sept 14.
It’s likely the last time the Chocolate Glazed Doughnut will be on menus in 2025, so if you want to get your chocolate fix for the year, you’ll need to take advantage now.
While you can always order a doughnut à la carte, Krispy Kreme is rewarding those who buy a dozen doughnuts with a 50% off deal. For any dozen you buy, you can get a second Chocolate Glazed dozen for half off.
Summer might be coming to an end, but we just found the sweetest deal to carry us over to fall.
