Key Lime Glazed & Key Lime Kreme from Krispy Kreme

I marked my calendar when I got an email announcing these 2 kinds of donuts from Krispy Kreme.; Key Lime Glazed and Key Lime Kreme. Sandi and I went early this morning to pick some up from their drive-thru.

First of all, they look much better on the video and pictures. The lime green color glazing the donuts were too pale. I bought a dozen of regular glazed in order to get the dozen of key lime for $8.00. I had trouble at first glance to see which was which as they almost looked alike except for a very pale tinge of green on the key lime donuts. This did not lessen my excitement because I was still after the taste.


In my opinion, Krispy Kreme donuts (glazed) are only delicious when hot otherwise it tastes almost like any other glazed donuts. I proceeded to heat one in the microwave for 12 seconds which makes it taste like the hot ones you get as you stand in front of the conveyer belt at the store. The donut was good in that it has a bit of the lime flavor. I expected it to have more and would have preferred a much more limey taste.


I had half of Kreme filled Glazed. I had a bite of it without heating and was not impressed so I heated it along with the key lime glazed. The filling melted but I just pretended I was dipping bread in gravy. I liked that better since it had a bit more lime flavor.

The verdict on these donuts is that they are okay and a nice change but nothing to get excited about. I wonder if the Lemon Glazed will be better than these. Those are due next week.
