If you are a Harry Potter fan, Krispy Kreme has just given you another reason to smile. The doughnut chain has released a special collection inspired by the legendary Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Starting August 18, you can grab these limited-edition doughnuts that bring the magic of Harry Potter straight to your taste buds.
The collection is called the Houses of Hogwarts x Krispy Kreme Collection, and it features a doughnut for each of the four Hogwarts houses. Each one is designed with colors, flavors, and toppings that represent Gryffindor, Slytherin, Hufflepuff, and Ravenclaw.
Alison Holder, Chief Brand and Product Officer for Krispy Kreme, said in a press release, “We’re channeling the beloved magic of Harry Potter and the Houses of Hogwarts for a collection that is truly bewitching. But the magic is fleeting, and so are these doughnuts, so do not miss your chance to try them!”
What flavors are in the hogwarts house doughnuts
Each house doughnut has its own unique flavor and design, making it easy to pick your favorite or collect them all.
- Gryffindor Doughnut: An unglazed shell filled with cookie butter-flavored Kreme, dipped in red icing and topped with Biscoff cookie crumble, golden icing drizzles, and the Gryffindor crest.
- Slytherin Doughnut: A classic Original Glazed topped with chocolate and green buttercreme swirls, finished with a chocolate cookie sugar blend and the Slytherin crest.
- Hufflepuff Doughnut: An unglazed shell filled with brown butter toffee custard, dipped in golden yellow icing, topped with black chocolate drizzle, cookie crunch, and the Hufflepuff crest.
- Ravenclaw Doughnut: An Original Glazed dipped in blueberry-flavored icing, topped with Ravenclaw sprinkles and crest.
Each doughnut has been crafted to look and taste like something that could have been served in the Great Hall at Hogwarts.
What is the Krispy Kreme sorting hat doughnut
In addition to the four house doughnuts, Krispy Kreme has also introduced something extra special: the Sorting Hat Doughnut. This one is sold separately in a limited-edition specialty box.
The fun part is that you never know which house you will get until you take a bite. The doughnut is filled with a mystery-colored Kreme that represents one of the four houses. It is dipped in chocolate icing, decorated with shimmering gold stars and sugar, and topped with a Sorting Hat piece.
It is a magical way to see where you belong—no actual hat required.
Where to buy Harry Potter Krispy Kreme doughnuts
You can buy the Harry Potter doughnuts individually or in specially designed dozen boxes at Krispy Kreme shops. They are also available for pickup or delivery through the Krispy Kreme app and website.
If you prefer smaller packs, you can find them in Krispy Kreme six-packs delivered to select grocery retailers. The company has not said exactly which stores will carry them, so you may want to check your local retailers.
