James Beard Award-winning pastry chef Christina Tosi's iconic flavors come to life in a playful, limited-time doughnut collab beginning April 21
Rolling out beginning Tuesday, April21, the Krispy Kreme x Milk Bar Collection brings three fan-favorite Milk Bar flavors together in doughnut form – playful, fun and unapologetically craveable:
- NEW Birthday Cake Doughnut – A celebration in every bite, this Original Glazed® cake doughnut is swirled with birthday cake frosting, showered in cake crumbles and finished with a burst of rainbow sprinkles, because every day deserves cake!
- NEW Milk Bar® Pie Doughnut – Inspired by Milk Bar’s cult-favorite pie, this unglazed shell doughnut is filled with gooey, buttery pie filling, dipped in silky caramel icing, rolled in oat cookie topping and dusted with a soft snowfall of a sweet, powdered coating.
- NEW Compost Cookie® Doughnut – A Milk Bar legend meets the Original Glazed®. This Original Glazed® doughnut is dipped in creamy cookie flavored icing, then is showered with the iconic Compost Cookie inspired crunch: irresistible bits of sweet, salty, chocolatey goodness Milk Bar fans obsess over. A silky caramel drizzle seals the deal.
"Krispy Kreme and Milk Bar share a passion for turning familiar flavors into unforgettable experiences," said Alison Holder, Chief Brand and Product Officer at Krispy Kreme. "Working alongside Christina Tosi to reimagine her most-loved creations as doughnuts has resulted in a collection that’s as bold and craveable as it is unique. We’re excited for fans to discover this one-of-a-kind collaboration.”
“Krispy Kreme and Milk Bar coming together felt like a creative collision waiting to happen, but the reality was even bigger, bolder and more delicious than I dreamed,” said Tosi, Chef and Founder of Milk Bar. “These doughnuts are wildly creative and delicious interpretations of our classic Milk Bar desserts, bringing all that nostalgia and flavor into an entirely new experience.”
The Krispy Kreme x Milk Bar Collection is available in-shop and for pickup or delivery via Krispy Kreme's app and website, individually and by the dozen.
