Available now through Valentine's Day at participating locations in the US and Canada, the Krispy Kreme Happy Heart dessert donuts celebrate the holiday with a cute personified design.

Consisting of three donuts in total, the Krispy Kreme Happy Heart collection of Valentine's Day donuts includes the Red Happy Heart Donut, the Pink Happy Heart Donut and the Sprinkled Heart Donut.

The Red and Pink donut varieties are finished with frosting details that turn each of the tasty treats into a cartoonish character that smiles up at the recipient. Both of these donuts are filled with the brand's signature Kreme, while the Sprinkled Heart Donut is not.

The Krispy Kreme Happy Heart dessert donuts are a deliciously sweet offering to a special Valentine to enjoy.
