Krispy Kreme's Latest Donut Collection Is An Ode To Churros

Krispy Kreme has a huge donut selection, ranging from classics such as original glazed, cinnamon sugar, powdered, and chocolate iced to more unique flavors such as Reese's classic, Oreo cookies & kreme, New York cheesecake, and limited-edition pumpkin spice. Krispy Kreme also offers donut holes, as well as new limited-edition menu items that the donut chain releases quite frequently.

In the past, Krispy Kreme offered limited unique flavors such as key lime pie, peppermint bark, caramel dutch apple pie, and cotton candy (via Thrillist). It even sold donuts specifically made for dogs that were inspired by classic donut flavors and baked by Huds and Toke, a pet treat bakery located in Australia, per Krispy Kreme. In 2016, Krispy Kreme announced in a tweet that it would offer a churro donut at select U.S. locations. Now, the donut chain's most recent limited-edition menu item is an even more decadent combination of donuts and churros.

Krispy Kreme revealed three new menu items on its Instagram that are available from September 5 to September 18, 2022. The treats are part of Krispy Kreme's new Churrdough collection, and the three flavors are Cinnamon Sugar, Cookies & Kreme, and Dulce de Leche. The new options are available for purchase individually or in a pack of three, with one of each flavor, per Krispy Kreme. 

Regarding the new Churrdough collection, Krispy Kreme's Global Chief Brand Officer, Dave Skena, said, "If you love classic churros or our Original Glazed Doughnuts, you're going to love this light and airy, cinnamon-y, caramel-y, creamy, sugary goodness we've created" (via Krispy Kreme).

According to Krispy Kreme, all three new Churrdough flavors are covered with cinnamon sugar. The Cinnamon Sugar Churrdough is also "topped with swirls of cinnamon Kreme and salted caramel crunch pieces." The Cookies & Kreme Churrdough is "decorated with swirls of chocolate cookie Kreme, topped with chocolate cookie pieces and drizzled with chocolate icing." Finally, the Dulce de Leche Churrdough is "decorated with swirls of cream cheese icing, topped with cookie pieces and dulce de leche drizzle." The new Churrdoughs are only available at some U.S. and Canadian Krispy Kreme locations, so be sure to check with your local store.
