KRISPY KREME® Celebrates World Chocolate Day this Weekend by Returning Popular Chocolate Glazed Doughnut

Original Glazed® Doughnuts smothered in rich chocolate glaze to be offered Saturday and Sunday, July 6-7

Half-price Chocolate Glazed dozen available with purchase of any dozen at regular price

CHARLOTTE, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Chocolate lovers rejoice and get ready! Krispy Kreme® is bringing back its beloved Chocolate Glazed Doughnuts this Saturday and Sunday only, July 6 and 7, in celebration of Sunday’s World Chocolate Day.

It will be the only time in 2024 that Krispy Kreme offers Chocolate Glazed – Krispy Kreme’s iconic Original Glazed® Doughnut smothered in rich, mouth-watering chocolate glaze.

To make the weekend even more chocolatey, Krispy Kreme is offering 50 percent off a dozen Chocolate Glazed doughnuts with the purchase of any dozen at regular price.

Krispy Kreme first introduced Chocolate Glazed in 2017 to celebrate that year’s total solar eclipse. The brand then offered Chocolate Glazed doughnuts on six continents in 2018 for World Chocolate Day. Since then, sightings of Chocolate Glazed have been rare.

“There’s nothing like our Chocolate Glazed doughnut, it’s a rare and special treat,” said Dave Skena, Global Chief Brand Officer for Krispy Kreme. “From watching the chocolate glaze waterfall to the aroma of chocolate taking over shops to the taste of our fresh doughnuts bathed in chocolate glaze – there’s no better way to celebrate World Chocolate Day.”

Doughnut and chocolate lovers can enjoy Chocolate Glazed doughnuts Saturday and Sunday at participating Krispy Kreme shops throughout the U.S., available in-shop and for pickup or delivery via Krispy Kreme’s app and website while supplies last.
