Cheesecake-Filled Donuts

The Pumpkin Spice Original Filled Doughnut is a New Fall Creation

As well as being able to look forward to the return of the favorite Pumpkin Spice Original Glazed Doughnut from Krispy Kreme this fall, fans can appreciate an all-new creation called the Pumpkin Spice Original Filled Doughnut for a limited time. Earlier this year, Krispy Kreme introduced a filled version of its classic treat and ever since, has been introducing fun new flavors and textures for fans to enjoy.

The Pumpkin Spice Original Filled Doughnut is filled with cheesecake Kreme and wrapped in a pumpkin spiced dough. To acknowledge that there are many pumpkin spice products launching for autumn, Krispy Kreme is inviting people to bring in "a disappointing Pumpkin Spice product" and trade it for a free treat.
