The lineup is led by four heart-shaped donuts which are designed to reflect the look of flowers and embrace a unique flavor palette.
The You Make my Daisy donut has white Kreme and strawberry icing and a daisy candy piece. The Love You Bunches donut has a chocolate filling with red icing, Blooming heart has cookies and kreme filling with heart sprinkles. You Are my Sunshine has a sunflower theme and caramel center.
Dave Skena, the Chief Growth Officer of Krispy Kreme explained “Our Hearts in Bloom Collection is perfect for sharing love and appreciation for anyone special in your life this Valentine’s Day.
