Krispy Kreme Brings Back Strawberry Original Glazed Doughnuts for a Limited-Time Spring Treat

Published April 16, 2026

Krispy Kreme is ushering in spring with a delicious comeback. Beginning April 16, the popular doughnut chain will once again offer its best-selling Strawberry Original Glazed Doughnuts across the country. Customers have eagerly requested the return of this flavorful treat since it made a limited-time appearance last spring.

Originally introduced in 2020, the strawberry-flavored doughnut quickly gained popularity and became a fan favorite. Due to its immediate success, Krispy Kreme has brought it back annually as a limited-time option, giving enthusiasts just a brief window to savor this unique doughnut.

While Krispy Kreme’s menu includes other strawberry-themed doughnuts topped with strawberry icing, the Strawberry Original Glazed Doughnut stands out because it is coated in a distinctive strawberry-flavored glaze, making it a rare offering.

The company shared the exciting news on Instagram, stating, "You asked and we delivered!" Fans responded with enthusiasm, with one commenting, "Yes, finally! I’ve been waiting," and another adding, "I missed this the last time, so I am thrilled."

In addition to the doughnut’s return, Krispy Kreme is also offering a special deal: customers can purchase a dozen Strawberry Original Glazed Doughnuts for just $5 when they buy any dozen doughnuts. Normally, a dozen Krispy Kreme doughnuts costs around $13, so this promotion reduces the price to approximately 41 cents per doughnut.

This offer is limited to two dozen when purchased in-store or at the drive-thru, and restricted to one dozen per order via the Krispy Kreme app or website. Online orders must use the promo code "STRAWBERRY" at checkout to receive the discount.

However, the availability of Strawberry Original Glazed Doughnuts is limited, with sales ending on April 19. Customers are encouraged to act quickly to enjoy this seasonal flavor, as missing this brief period means waiting until next year for another chance to indulge in this springtime treat.
