“Our latest co-creation with Reese’s is our best yet,” said David Skena, chief marketing officer at Krispy Kreme. “If the technology exists to fill a Krispy Kreme donut with Reese’s Peanut Butter Kreme and Chocolate Kreme, then how could we not offer that to America? Well it does. So we are. And it’s amazing.”
Reese’s Original Filled Doughnuts can be purchased individually or by the dozen. Krispy Kreme also has produced a limited run of a custom two-pack box inspired by the iconic Reese’s two-cup pack. They can include two Reese’s Peanut Butter Lovers donuts, two Reese’s Chocolate Lovers donuts, or one of each.
Krispy Kreme and Hershey also partnered on a donut back in 2017, called the Reese’s Peanut Butter Doughnut. The Reese’s Peanut Butter Doughnut was filled with a Reese’s peanut butter Kreme filling, dipped in chocolate icing and topped with a chocolate and peanut butter drizzle. The donut was topped with Reese’s mini peanut butter chips and peanuts.
