Tropically Inspired Donut Collections

The Krispy Kreme Island Time Collection Has Three Flavors

— May 18, 2021 — Lifestyle
The Krispy Kreme Island Time Collection is a summery lineup of pastries for patrons on the lookout for warm weather-themed treats to enjoy as the temperature continues to rise. The donuts come in three flavors to choose from including the Pina Colada Doughnut, the Island Time Donut and the Key Lime Pie Doughnut, which are each made with a series of sweet flavors for consumers to enjoy. The donuts also maintain a colorful finish with the Island Time Doughnut emblazoned with a small palm tree that transforms the treat into a desert isle.

The Krispy Kreme Island Time Collection is being launched by the brand on Monday, May 17, 2021 but will only be available at participating locations through May 30, 2021.
