Need something sweet to pair with your cup of ambition?
Krispy Kreme has teamed with Dolly Parton for a collection of doughnuts inspired by the "Jolene" singer's favorite southern flavors.
The "Dolly Southern Sweets Doughnut Collection" features four limited-edition flavors that's sure to make your nine to five just a little bit sweeter. And you can carry them out in a custom Dolly Parton dozens box. The new flavors are:
- Dolly Dazzler Doughnut – An Original Glazed doughnut dipped in strawberry icing, with gold, pink and white glitter sprinkles and a signature chocolate Dolly butterfly piece.
- Peachy Keen Cobbler Doughnut – An unglazed doughnut filled with real peach filling, dipped in brown sugar icing and crunchy cobbler topping.
- Banana Puddin’ Pie – An unglazed doughnut filled with banana pudding made with wafers and banana pudding Kreme, dipped in yellow icing, with white icing swirls and a wafer cookie.
- Chocolate Crème Pie – An Original Glazed doughnut topped with a swirl of chocolate brownie cream and vanilla whipped topping, sprinkled with chocolate cookie crumble.
“Having some of my very favorite southern flavors in one, unique doughnut collection from Krispy Kreme is so special to me,” Parton said in a news release. “These doughnuts remind me of home. So, I’m excited for folks to share them with their own family and friends. They’re pretty sweet, if I do say so myself!”
To celebrate the partnership, Krispy Kreme will be giving out free doughnuts on Saturday, May 18, to customers who visit a shop "Dolly'd up" — whether you're dressed up as Dolly Parton or wearing your favorite Dolly merch — or skip the costume and sing your favorite Dolly Parton song.
