It’s a citrusy twist on the brand’s famous Original Glazed doughnuts. The new treats feature “a bright, citrus-and-cream” glaze “inspired by the nostalgic childhood ice cream” dessert, Krispy Kreme said in news release.

The seasonal treat was introduced in 2020 and has only reappeared on menus five times since then.
