Krispy Kreme, Milk Bar partner on new doughnuts
The treats aim to reimagine some of the NYC dessert house's flavors.

Krispy Kreme is partnering with Milk Bar and its founder, James Beard Award-winning pastry chef Christina Tosi, for their first-ever collaboration—a limited-time doughnut collection that reimagines some of Milk Bar’s most iconic flavors the Krispy Kreme way, the brands say.
Rolling out beginning Tuesday, April 21, the Krispy Kreme x Milk Bar Collection brings three consumer-favorite Milk Bar flavors together in doughnut form:
- Birthday Cake Doughnut – This Original Glazed cake doughnut is swirled with birthday cake frosting, showered in cake crumbles, and finished with a burst of rainbow sprinkles
- Milk Bar Pie Doughnut – Inspired by Milk Bar’s cult-favorite pie, this unglazed shell doughnut is filled with gooey, buttery pie filling, dipped in silky caramel icing, rolled in oat cookie topping and dusted with sweet, powdered coating.
- Compost Cookie Doughnut – This Original Glazed doughnut is dipped in creamy cookie flavored icing, then is showered with Compost Cookie-inspired crunch, topped with a caramel drizzle.
"Krispy Kreme and Milk Bar share a passion for turning familiar flavors into unforgettable experiences," says Alison Holder, chief brand and product officer at Krispy Kreme. "Working alongside Christina Tosi to reimagine her most-loved creations as doughnuts has resulted in a collection that’s as bold and craveable as it is unique. We’re excited for fans to discover this one-of-a-kind collaboration.”
“Krispy Kreme and Milk Bar coming together felt like a creative collision waiting to happen, but the reality was even bigger, bolder, and more delicious than I dreamed,” says Tosi, chef and founder of Milk Bar. “These doughnuts are wildly creative and delicious interpretations of our classic Milk Bar desserts, bringing all that nostalgia and flavor into an entirely new experience.”
The Krispy Kreme x Milk Bar Collection is available in-shop and for pickup or delivery via Krispy Kreme's app and website, individually and by the dozen. Guests can also enjoy the Milk Bar Birthday Cake doughnuts alongside three Original Glazed in a Krispy Kreme six-pack delivered to select retailers.
