Picture this: you’re on an airplane flying off to a calming vacation destination. Your travel plans went off without a hitch. You’re listening to your favorite music, and memories of your stressful work week melt away. You have a strong cup of coffee, plenty of leg room and there are no screaming babies in sight. As you relax in your chair, a flight attendant offers you a package of Lotus Biscoff cookies. You open the package, take a bite and the spice cookie snaps off into delicious little brown sugar cinnamon crumbs in your mouth. It’s the perfect start to your holiday.
That little cookie imparts a profound nostalgia to the wanderlusters among us. Now, thanks to that other iconic sweets brand, Krispy Kreme Doughnuts, you don’t have to book an entire roundtrip ticket to savor those sweet, warming flavors. Introducing: the Krispy Kreme Lotus Biscoff cookie-doughnut collab!
Krispy Kreme’s 2023 Lotus Biscoff Doughnut Flavors
This line of three unique cookie-infused doughnuts combines everything you love in a doughnut (pillowy-soft brioche and oozing gooey glaze)mwith everything you love about Biscoffs (that crumbly bite and rich caramelly taste!). The three new doughnuts come in the following flavors.
Biscoff Iced Doughnut
For the traditionalist, this doughnut keeps it simple and elegant. The base is an Original Glazed doughnut, dipped in a Biscoff Cookie Butter icing for an extra special touch. If you love a maple doughnut, you’re sure to love this new limited edition flavor.
Biscoff Cookie Butter Cheesecake Doughnut
To kick it up a notch, this flavor features an Original Glazed doughnut, dipped in Biscoff Cookie Butter icing, then topped with a swirl of cream cheese frosting and a sprinkle of Biscoff Crumble. If you’ve ever dreamed of making a cheesecake with a Biscoff cookie crust, this one’s for you.
Biscoff Cookie Butter Kreme Filled Doughnut
Do you have an insatiable sweet tooth? Do you eat cookie butter by the spoonful? Then, this last doughnut is for you. It features a shell doughnut filled with Biscoff Cookie Butter Kreme, Biscoff Cookie Butter icing, a swirl of dark chocolate icing and a dusting of Biscoff Crumble.
