Krispy Kreme Doughnuts

[Alfahorn]

I tried these for the first time yesterday. Apart from the fact they are expensive, I thought they were quote nice but not amazing.

[i want an aero]

the price puts me off

I love the plain ones

Tad expensive but a very nice occasional treat.

Are these the ones that you can by at Harrods? If so, they are the best ones I have ever tasted.

They're bloody nice but I don't understand the American approach of ordering a dozen, my wife had a modelling weight of around 7 stone and yet would think nothing of polishing off a dozen doughnuts whereas I, who weigh more than double that, would order one, maybe two if I was hungry.

For the record I had 3, however fair play to your wife.

They are possibly the best thing thats bad for you. Ever. Ever. Ever.

I dream about these doughnuts.



Shame we can't get them around here

The price is very off putting...

They are sold as a premium 'snack' in this country yet the Americans arean't overly keen on them as a nation. I was in Florida 2 months ago and they were selling a box of 12 for $4.

They're in all sorts of (financial) trouble in the US. Even (some) Americans have realised they can't carry on eating like they were.

Dunkin' Donuts is doing better. DD are a bit more coffee focused, which KK never really picked up on.

Whats the cost of a dozen krispy kremes?

[i want an aero]

they're for sale in tesco redditch, £8 for a dozen

[okgo]

On your bike

We have one just opened on the south coast and the local paper is doing a buy one dozen, get another dozen free coupon!!

We have found they don't go stale very quickly either. They are still edible a week after buying whereas normal douhnuts go rock hard in 24 hours.

The Bank I work for wanted to thank us for a week of hard work, so decided to get the Krispy Kremes in... (being a US bank)

So they ordered 100 donuts for the team, and arranged for them to be delivered.

The problem came when they worked out that my our office is not in London (they bought the donuts from Harrods), but in Bournemouth.

2.5 hours later, Harrods delivered the donuts to Bournemouth, probable cost £500??

Happy days

[Colonial]

Australia has more and more of them

Really not a fan. Far too sweet and just have nothing imo, like eating sweetened cotton wool.

I bought a Belshaw Donut Machine today. Not for me but for a customer.
Makes 700 an hour,
Only six grand plus the vodka and tonic

Processed Wank as far as im concerned ...

Not a patch on those salty ,sugary ,fat arsed, freshly fried donuts you can buy from a stall, at any summer Classic car show / Fairground , anywhere in the U.K .
