Yes, it’s true, two of America’s favourite brands have collaborated to bring you the latest Krispy Kreme limited-edition doughnut collection. And it will be available in-store at Krispy Kreme and over 700 7-Eleven stores from Tuesday 22 February.
There will be three unique doughnut creations to froth over, with chocolate-masters Hershey’s injecting their signature choc recipe into Krispy Kreme’s iconic doughnuts.
The Hershey Chocolate Company is renowned for its milk chocolate bars used to make the classic campfire treat s’mores and its melt-in-your-mouth Hershey kisses.
So what does the latest collection look like? Let’s start with the Choc Strawberry. It’s filled with Hershey’s choc creme, dipped in strawberry truffle, finished with Hershey’s choc chips and icing drizzle.
Next up is the Ultimate Choc – a mash-up heaven of everyone’s dreams, filled with Hershey’s choc creme, dipped in milk choc ganache, finished with Hershey’s choc chips and chocolate ganache drizzle.
Last, but not least, is the S’Mores made with Hershey’s – swirled with whipped marshmallow filling, dipped in smooth choc dip and finished with Hershey’s choc chips and biscuit crumb. The S’mores will be exclusively available at 7-Eleven.
“Aussies and Kiwis love to share and celebrate American-style treats. Who can resist HERSHEY’S kisses or a warm, gooey S’more? Krispy Kreme’s cultural significance and brand heritage in the US made our partnership with The HERSHEY’S Chocolate Company all-the-more seamless – we like to call it the American Dream team,” said Olivia Sutherland, Marketing Director at Krispy Kreme Australia.
Joeven Perez, Associate Marketing Manager for ANZO at The Hershey Company added: “We at Hershey’s seek to spark joyful, happy possibilities in the ordinary and we definitely believe that our partnership with Krispy Kreme Australia will help us bring this joy to the AU community in a sweeter, larger scale. We both share our roots from the US, and we are most thrilled to share to our consumers the combination of classic American sweets now in your favourite doughnuts,” added Joeven Perez, Associate Marketing Manager for ANZO at The Hershey Company.
The fresh-off-the-line Krispy Kreme x HERSHEY’S doughnuts retail at $3.90 ea or $29.90 for a box of one dozen and will only be available for a limited time, so dough-not wait around!
