You guys, I have to wish the happiest of birthdays to someone very special today:
Krispy Kreme turned 78!! Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday delicious doughnuts, happy birthday to you!
I have loved Krispy Kreme since I was seven years old and lived in Orange Park, Florida. My dad and I used to walk to the local Krispy Kreme store and get our favorite glazed donuts. I remember taking a tour and watching the doughnuts being made fresh in house. At the end of the tour we got free glazed doughnuts. I can still see the machines cooking the doughnuts and remember the delicious smell. You remember the strangest things about being a kid and this is one thing I remember vividly. The memory has become very special to me.
When I moved to Pennsylvania, I remember there being no Krispy Kreme nearby and was very sad. I missed them horribly as other doughnut places just couldn't compare. Imagine my surprise when I moved to Nebraska and there were Krispy Kremes everywhere! It was like a doughnut miracle!
So to celebrate the deliciousness that is Krispy Kreme, once again living near their stores, and them turning the ripe old age of 78, I got together with Joanna and Jordan for some sweet treats and girl talk!
Krispy Kreme is celebrating their birthday with limited-edition birthday cake batter doughnuts and birthday cake chillers. How cute are these doughnuts? And they're stuffed with cake batter! The odd one out is the brownie batter doughnut I had to try so I bought it for Josh. Thank goodness for husbands who don't mind you bringing them home doughnuts with a bite missing!
And for friends who don't judge you for taking silly doughnut selfies in public! ;)
The birthday cake batter doughnut was unreal. Such a fun and delicious treat. While nothing will beat the original glazed for me, this comes in a very close second. And it got big thumbs ups from the girls! These birthday treats will be available at Krispy Kreme until August 30th. I highly recommend stopping by and trying them for yourself.
