The Krispy Kreme x Fruity Pebbles Milk Original Glazed Donut has been announced by the brand as its latest collaborative menu item that's crafted with the signature taste of the iconic breakfast cereal in mind. The donut starts off with the brand's classic ring donut that's covered in a Fruity Pebbles milk-flavored glaze that gives it a familiar taste and a burst of sweetness. The donut is a limited-edition menu item only being offered from April 3 to 6, 2025 for fans to pick up from their nearest participating location.
Chief Growth Officer Dave Skena spoke on the Krispy Kreme x Fruity Pebbles Milk Original Glazed Donut saying, "You might say that we’ve reached a new glaze innovation ‘bedrock’ with Krispy Kreme x Fruity Pebbles Milk Original Glazed Doughnuts. Every bite of this new, melt-in-your-mouth twist on our Original Glaze will have you thinking you just put down the cereal spoon. So, don’t miss out, these doughnuts are here for only four days.”
