US-based doughnut and coffeehouse chain Krispy Kreme has announced the relaunch of its ‘Original Glazed Doughnuts’ to mark this year’s World Chocolate Day celebration on 7 July.

The popular doughnut will be available on 7 and 8 July.

For these two days, customers can purchase the Original Glazed doughnut, covered in chocolate glaze, from any participating Krispy Kreme stores across the US.

It will be available in-shop and for pickup and delivery while supplies last. Customers can also place their orders through the Krispy Kreme app or the website.

World Chocolate Day will be the only time that Krispy Kreme offers its Chocolate Glazed, which was originally launched in 2017.

The company said it has rarely relaunched the Chocolate Glazed doughnut.

Krispy Kreme Global chief brand officer Dave Skena said: “It has been six years since we first delighted doughnut fans and chocolate lovers with this sensational innovation.

“Chocolate Glazed doughnuts are truly a special experience in our shops for guests to enjoy – from watching the chocolate glaze waterfall to the aroma of chocolate taking over shops to the taste of fresh doughnuts bathed in chocolate glaze. What a way to celebrate World Chocolate Day.”

Krispy Kreme is a sweet treat brand headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolina, with stores and operations in more than 30 countries across the globe.

Apart from its network of fresh doughnut shops, the doughnut company also has a rapidly expanding e-commerce and delivery business, including 12,000 fresh points of access.

In April, Krispy Kreme rolled out a new collection of cookie doughnuts in collaboration with CHIPS AHOY! and OREO.
