The Salted Caramel Latte Doughnut is an espresso Kreme™ filled doughnut and topped with a salted caramel icing and salted sugar blend. An espresso icing drizzle tops off this perfect fall treat.

The Pumpkin Spice Latte features a pumpkin spice blend and is topped with whipped cream and pumpkin topping. This beverage can be enjoyed hot, iced or frozen.

“Each year we always look forward to the classic flavors of fall,” said Jackie Woodward, Chief Marketing Officer at Krispy Kreme Doughnuts. “Our fans crave these seasonally inspired treats, and the pairing of a Pumpkin Spice Latte and one of our doughnuts makes for the perfect comfort food as the weather starts to cool down.”

Krispy Kreme’s pumpkin flavored products have been appearing seasonally in shops for more than a decade and are frequently noted by our guests as one of the best ways to get a pumpkin fix throughout the season.
