Krispy Kreme’s newest fall treat is Churro Doughnut Dots, eight cinnamon-sugar bites of its doughnut dough with a dulce de leche dip, in shops since September 22. A coffee-flavored Original Glazed ran through National Coffee Day on Tuesday, September 29, with a $5 dozen deal and a free coffee with any purchase in shops that day.

The four August fall doughnuts are still on the menu. For every chain’s fall and Halloween menu by date, see the Fall and Halloween Fast Food 2026 guide.

Churro Doughnut Dots

Each order is eight Doughnut Dots made from Krispy Kreme’s light, airy doughnut dough, tossed in cinnamon sugar and served with a cup of dulce de leche for dipping. They are available for a limited time at participating shops nationwide, in-shop, at the drive-thru, and for pickup or delivery through Krispy Kreme’s app and website, while supplies last. Krispy Kreme had not published a price as of September 28.

“They’re poppable, dippable and the perfect add-on to your Krispy Kreme purchase,” said Alison Holder, Chief Product and Brand Officer at Krispy Kreme.

The Coffee Glazed Doughnut Ran Through September 29

The Original Glazed Coffee Flavored Doughnut is the classic Original Glazed with a creamy coffee-flavored glaze, and it was on sale for four days only, Saturday, September 26 through Tuesday, September 29.

  • $5 coffee dozen, Sept. 26 to 29: a dozen Original Glazed Coffee Flavored Doughnuts for $5 when you buy any dozen at regular price. The limit is two per guest in-shop and at the drive-thru, and one through the Krispy Kreme app for pickup or delivery with promo code COFFEE.
  • Free coffee, Sept. 29 only: a free small or medium hot or iced coffee with any purchase, in participating shops, one per guest.

The Fall Doughnuts Still on the Menu

The Autumn Seasonal Collection is four doughnuts and two lattes, and Krispy Kreme’s seasonal menu still lists all four doughnuts. Two are new this year and two are returning.

  • Maple Cheesecake Doughnut (new): an unglazed shell doughnut filled with cheesecake Kreme, dipped in maple icing and topped with graham-flavored crunch and maple drizzle.
  • Cafe Mocha Doughnut (new): an Original Glazed doughnut dipped in chocolate icing and topped with a coffee-flavored buttercreme swirl and a mocha bean.
  • Biscoff Cookie Butter Doughnut (returning): an unglazed shell doughnut filled with Biscoff Cookie Butter Kreme, dipped in Biscoff cookie butter icing, topped with Biscoff cookie pieces and drizzled with white icing.
  • Pumpkin Spice Cake Doughnut (returning): an Original Glazed Old Fashioned cake doughnut with pumpkin spice flavor.

The two lattes are the returning Pumpkin Spice Latte, flavored with pumpkin pie sauce and topped with whipped cream and pumpkin spice seasoning, and the new Apple Crisp Latte, flavored with apple crisp syrup and topped with whipped cream, caramel drizzle and a graham-flavored topping.

An August 11 pumpkin spice launch put Krispy Kreme two weeks ahead of the Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte on August 25, the same early start documented in the Hershey seasonal report.

Earlier This Fall: Pumpkin Spice Glazed, Apple Cider and a Football Dozen

Krispy Kreme has run two shorter fall items since August.

  • Pumpkin Spice Original Glazed, Aug. 27 to 30: a four-day return, with a $5 dozen alongside any regular-price dozen.
  • Apple Cider Original Glazed, from Sept. 10: a new doughnut made with apple cider dough, spiced with cinnamon and finished with the Original Glazed glaze, with a $5 dozen deal from September 10 to 13. It is not listed on Krispy Kreme’s online limited-time or seasonal menu as of September 28, so check with your shop.
  • Fall & Football Dozen, from Sept. 10: four Football Doughnuts (a football-shaped shell filled with white Kreme, dipped in chocolate icing with white icing laces), three Pumpkin Spice Cake, two Maple Cheesecake and three Original Glazed.

Krispy Kreme Halloween Doughnuts: 2026 Timing and Last Year’s Lineup

Krispy Kreme has not announced its 2026 Halloween doughnuts as of September 28, and its Halloween page still shows last year’s collection. In 2025 the Halloween doughnuts ran from October 6 to October 31: the Jack-O-Lantern, the Candy Bag, the Cookies and Skreme House and the Spooky Sprinkle. Guests who wore a costume to a participating U.S. shop on October 25 or Halloween got a free Original Glazed or Classic Ring doughnut, with no purchase necessary. I will update this page when the 2026 lineup is out.

Where and When to Get It

Churro Doughnut Dots and the Autumn Seasonal Collection are available for a limited time at participating Krispy Kreme shops nationwide, in-shop and for pickup or delivery through the Krispy Kreme app and website, while supplies last. The coffee doughnut and $5 coffee dozen ended September 29. The other big doughnut chain’s fall lineup is in Dunkin’s fall menu.
