Romanced by the irresistible scent of doughnut-making drifting into the streets, passersby asked if they could buy hot, fresh doughnuts. So, Rudolph cut a hole in an outside wall and began selling Original Glazed doughnuts directly to customers on the sidewalk. Today, Krispy Kreme continues to evolve its menu with a wide range of delicious doughnut innovations, while the Original Glazed doughnut remains just as melt-in-your-mouth delicious and iconic as ever, enjoyed by all generations – especially when the brand's beloved Hot Light is on. Krispy Kreme doughnuts are available in-shop and for pickup or delivery via Krispy Kreme's app and website, individually and by the dozen.
