Review: Krispy Kreme - Pumpkin Spice Donut

Krispy Kreme's Pumpkin Spice Donut is a seasonal donut that joins the glut of pumpkin items around this time of year.

It was $1.09 for a single Pumpkin Spice Donut.

As I cut one of these in half for picture taking purposes, the crumb looked a bit dry. Thankfully, it was a trick of the color and a finger poke revealed that it was indeed soft and moist.

Mostly Krispy Kreme's Pumpkin Spice Donut tasted like a fairly fresh, sweet, and yummy buttermilk donut. That being said, the pumpkin flavor was a bit lacking and hard to pick out over the very sweet glaze. The spice was there, but the pumpkin? Not so much.

Bottomline: Yummy buttermilk donut? Check! Pumpkin spice flavor? Yes on the spice but, very little on the pumpkin front.
