Fresh Citrus Meets Iconic Glaze: Glazed Lemon Filled Doughnuts at Krispy Kreme for a Limited Time

Fresh citrus meets iconic glaze. Don’t miss out on the Glazed Lemon Filled Doughnuts, making a quick comeback at participating Krispy Kreme locations right now. They returned today, May 18.

Out with the Orange Dreamsicle Doughnuts and in with something sweet, tart, and beautifully bright! A legendary flavor, according to Krispy Kreme, has officially returned to the menu. Doughnut enthusiasts have a new reason to celebrate because, for a limited time, Glazed Lemon Filled Doughnuts are stepping back into the spotlight to deliver the ultimate taste of sunshine.
Known for capturing the harmony between a zesty citrus kick and the brand’s signature sugary glaze, this fan-favorite rollout should cause a stir. If you have been waiting to trade in heavy chocolate flavors for something fresh and vibrant, your moment has arrived.
The Sweet and Tart Glazed Lemon Filled Doughnuts at Krispy Kreme
The limited-run release highlights the return of the Glazed Lemon Filled Doughnuts. This pastry features the classic, airy dough that fans crave, completely transformed by an infusion of fresh lemon flavor mixed right into the traditional glaze. The result is a vibrant, mouthwatering balance that is neither too sour nor overwhelmingly sweet.
According to Krispy Kreme, “…if fans show up in a big way, it just might earn a permanent spot on the menu in the future.” Last seen in November 2025, the Original Glazed Lemon Filled Doughnut is back with its signature combo: a melt-in-your-mouth Original Glazed shell and a bright, citrusy lemon filling that basically tastes like sunshine.
“We heard you loud, clear, and all over our comments,” said Alison Holder, Krispy Kreme chief brand and product officer. “Fans have not been quiet about wanting this one back, and honestly … we get it. Original Glazed® Lemon Filled is pure feel-good flavor. Consider your craving handled.”
Where and When to Find Them

As with all great things, this citrus celebration won’t last forever. Historically, these specialty glazes operate on incredibly short windows, sometimes lasting just a single week or a long weekend.
- Availability: Participating U.S. shops, drive-thrus, and online delivery, starting today. We do not have an end date for their availability at this time.
- Pro-Tip: Keep a close eye on the iconic “Hot Light” at your local shop. Catching a batch of these fresh out of the glaze waterfall is an experience you do not want to miss.
Make sure to head over to your nearest location or open your delivery app soon. Once this limited-time window closes, these refreshing treats will disappear from the racks to make room for the next seasonal rotation. Additionally, do not forget about the Krispy Kreme Spring Collection. For more information on the current menu, visit KrispyKreme.com.
