With Independence Day on the horizon, Krispy Kreme is sweetening America’s birthday with an all-new patriotic donut lineup and a tasty free donut offer. The popular donut shop has introduced its “Stars, Stripes & Sweetness Collection,” including three festive holiday donuts that reflect the red, white, and blue of the Fourth of July.
The Stars, Stripes & Sweetness Collection: Three patriotic flavors
Krispy Kreme’s Fourth of July 2025 promotion features three specially designed donuts inspired by the patriotic theme. The centerpiece of the promotion is the Freedom Ring Doughnut, which is the company’s Original Glazed doughnut covered in white icing, topped with blue sprinkles and white stars, and has red icing stripes piped along the top.
The USA Party Doughnut is celebratory in design with an Original Glazed base piped white buttercreme, topped with a USA-themed sprinkle mix, and topped with a decorative USA sugar piece. Rounding out the team is the Vanilla Cookies & Kreme Liberty Crunch Doughnut with an unglazed exterior containing vanilla cookies and cream filling, iced white, and topped with vanilla cookie crumbs, patriotic sprinkles, and a white icing drizzle.
How to get your free donut on the 4th of July
Krispy Kreme is sweetening the 4th of July holiday with a holiday promotion. In honor of Independence Day, customers who dress in red, white, and blue into participating Krispy Kreme locations will get a free Original Glazed donut on July 4th only. The promotional deal is for one free donut per customer and can be redeemed only on the 4th of July.
The initiative invites Americans to speak their patriotic spirit while they indulge in one of Krispy Kreme’s traditional treats. As Krispy Kreme’s chief growth officer, Dave Skena, puts it, “Whether you’re heading out to parades, parties or pools for the holiday, our Stars, Stripes & Sweetness Collection is the perfect addition to make your Fourth of July celebrations a little sweeter and the day a blast.”
Availability and where to get these limited treats
The Stars, Stripes & Sweetness Collection debuted June 23, 2025, and will be available on a limited basis through July 4th at participating Krispy Kreme shops nationwide. The collection may be purchased through multiple channels to provide customers all over the United States with maximum convenience.
These red-white-and-blue goodies can be bought in-store at participating Krispy Kreme shops, or picked up or delivered through Krispy Kreme’s mobile app and website. Individual donuts or dozens can be bought as needed, making it convenient for family fun or party hosting.
Extended retail availability
Outside Krispy Kreme stores, Stars, Stripes & Sweetness Collection also is sold through the company’s retail partners. Consumers may purchase these seasonal donuts in specialty 6-pack boxes delivered fresh daily to retail partner locations. Consumers can find their local participating store or retail partner through the store locator on the Krispy Kreme website.
The retailing growth illustrates Krispy Kreme’s move to expand availability by partnering with grocery stores and convenience stores. The move guarantees that even residents of places where under ordinary circumstances there would be no Krispy Kreme traditional stores may enjoy their Fourth of July celebratory cake.
Making the most of your Krispy Kreme experience
For best experience with both the free donut promotion and the new lineup, customers must plan their visit strategically. The July 4th free donut promotion demands that one wear patriotic colors, meaning that customers must wear red, white, and blue before going to their neighborhood participating Krispy Kreme shop.
Those interested in the Stars, Stripes & Sweetness Collection must act quickly because the offerings of these products are only available for a short while. The collection is Krispy Kreme’s commitment to celebrating American holidays with holiday-themed products that bring communities together through shared sweet moments.
This Fourth of July offer reinforces the legacy of Krispy Kreme to build holiday memories for customers and shows how creative the company can be in developing themed products that reflect the spirit of American holidays.
