A couple of weeks ago Greg and I visited the @KrispyKreme headquarters in Winston-Salem, North Carolina and joined a group of other donut lovers to tour the plant, meet the CEO and learn all about how Krispy Kreme donuts are made. Maybe you read our post, the Day in the Life of a Krispy Kreme donut, or learned how to pair coffee with doughnuts.
We sure learned a lot about Krispy Kreme donuts and I’m glad. I grew up with them, going on Sunday night after church to watch as they made the donuts fresh and then eating them while they were fresh off the line. They say that when the light comes on you know that the Krispy Kreme donuts are hot off the line. They even have an app for that now.
Krispy Kreme sent us home with lots of Valentine’s cards to give away. You can actually get a Free sheet of these cute cards (12 to a sheet) when you buy a dozen donuts but 10 lucky Sweeties readers will each get 24 cards of their own to give to friends. They really are designed for kids because they are the small ones kids usually giveaway but I am sure a co-worker or friend would love to have one.
Why? On the back of each card is a coupon to get a FREE Krispy Kreme donut of your choice with no purchase necessary.
So, the lucky winners will each get enough cards to get 24 Free Krispy Kreme donuts! Of course, you could keep them for yourself if you don’t want to share but you can’t use them all at once!
One of the biggest years for Krispy Kreme is Valentine’s Day. People love the special heart-shaped donuts and buy them up like crazy for their parties.

Definitely the Pumpkin Spice Donuts during the holidays at Krispy Kreme!!
Shared on FB
A fresh-baked donut is just my favorite – nothing fancy, no creme filling, no topping, but grabbing that first cup of coffee in the morning when it’s just the right temperature …. then popping that fresh Krispy Kreme donut in your mouth – YUMMY!! Dang it, I’m hungry for one right now!! 🙂
I’ll take the standard glazed donut that melts in your mouth!
I go straight for the original glazed, they made the best first and I have yet to find any doughnut that beats the Krispy Cream Glazed … when my kids were small they loved to go to the store and watch them being made through the viewing window and them they got to eat one of those hot and fresh yummy
tweeted, shared, and liked and followed. My favorite is that cinammon roll tasting one. i put it it in the oven for 2 minutes and OMG, its like heaven!
