Football-Shaped Donuts

These Super Bowl-Themed Treats are Perfect for Game Day

— February 1, 2016 — Lifestyle
Krispy Kreme just announced the release of two new Super Bowl-themed treats in honor of the annual game. Whether you're a Panthers fan or you're cheering for the Broncos, these football-inspired donuts will help you to show your support in a delicious way.

The two new Super Bowl-themed treats consist of football-shaped donuts stuffed with the traditional Kreme filling. The donut representing the Carolina Panthers is topped with blue icing and white icing laces, while the donut for the Denver Broncos is coated in orange icing with navy blue icing laces. Both donuts will be available at participating Krispy Kreme locations until Super Bowl Sunday.

As an added twist, Krispy Kreme will be keeping track of which donut is more popular across the US, with daily results posted on the company's social media platforms.
Trend Themes
1. Super Bowl-themed Treats - Creating football-shaped donuts for the Super Bowl presents an opportunity for bakeries to tap into the excitement of the event and generate buzz through unique and festive treats.
2. Participatory Marketing - Engaging customers through a voting system to determine the more popular football-inspired donut flavor creates an opportunity for brands to increase consumer interaction and loyalty.
3. Limited Edition Food Items - Releasing seasonal or event-themed food items, such as the Super Bowl-themed donuts, can drive sales and create a sense of urgency among consumers to try the unique offerings.
Industry Implications
1. Bakery - Bakeries can capitalize on the trend of creating special limited-edition treats for events like the Super Bowl, attracting customers with unique and festive offerings.
2. Marketing - Participatory marketing strategies, like Krispy Kreme's donut voting system, offer opportunities for marketers to engage with consumers and cultivate brand loyalty through interactive experiences.
3. Food and Beverage - The introduction of limited edition food items tied to popular events can drive foot traffic and generate consumer excitement, providing a valuable marketing opportunity for the food and beverage industry.
