Pinkbox Doughnuts, a Las Vegas-based dessert brand, has teamed up with Care Bears to launch a new line of merchandise and treats featuring fan-favorite characters from the show. Overall, customers can expect the colorful new collab to feature a range of Care Bear imagery, cutesy designs, and tasty donuts.
As part of the partnership, Pinkbox Doughnuts will introduce one new Care Bears-themed doughnut every month, while the store's main Care Bears doughnut, which features pink frosting and gummy bears, will be on offer for the entire year. The monthly launches will begin in April with the debut of the Funshine Bear doughnut.
“At Pinkbox Doughnuts, our goal is to bring joy to every customer with our inventive and delicious treats. We’re always looking for new ways to spread smiles, so partnering Pinkbox Doughnuts with a brand as cherished as the Care Bears was an opportunity we couldn’t pass up,” says Judith Siegel, owner of Pinkbox Doughnuts.
