Krispy Kreme launches Pokémon doughnuts for 30th anniversary

Krispy Kreme has released a limited-edition Pokémon collection to mark 30 years of Pokémon, with prices starting from £2.59 at participating shops nationwide.

Three new doughnuts revealed

The range features sweet treats inspired by Pikachu, Charmander, and Jigglypuff. The Pikachu Doughnut is filled with lemon-flavoured Kreme, dipped in vanilla icing, and decorated with drizzle, nonpareils, and a Pikachu piece. The Charmander Doughnut contains a chocolate and toasted marshmallow-flavoured filling, dipped in orange-coloured caramel icing, and covered with red and gold sugar before being finished with a Charmander piece.

The Jigglypuff Doughnut is an Original Glazed treat piped with strawberry-flavoured buttercreme, sprinkled with strawberry-flavoured cookie pieces, and topped with a Jigglypuff decoration. The collaboration with The Pokémon Company International celebrates 30 years of Pokémon, as reported by What’s The Jam.
