— July 8, 2025 — Lifestyle
The Krispy Kreme Hungry for Heroes collection has been debuted by the brand as a series of delicious donuts that are inspired by classic superheroes thanks to a partnership with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products.

The donuts are a limited time offering that are arriving at the brand's participating locations now in three options including the Superman Doughnut, Wonder Woman Doughnut and the Batman Doughnut. The Superman and Batman varieties are unglazed shell-style donuts with filling, while the Wonder Woman variety boasts an Original Glazed recipe with eye-catching adornments.

Chief Growth Officer Dave Skena commented on the Krispy Kreme Hungry for Heroes collection saying, "We can’t promise you’ll reach Superman, Batman, or Wonder Woman level by bringing a dozen doughnuts to the office or your next get-together, but you will be a hero."
