Krispy Kreme will sell a special Artemis II Doughnut for a very limited time. Act fast to get this out of the world treat. The dream of enjoying Krispy Kreme doughnuts on the Moon is about to take a giant leap forward, and we’re all about it. This doughnut will now be around through April 10.

Artemis II Doughnut

To celebrate NASA’s planned launch of Artemis II, the first crewed test flight on the agency’s journey toward a long‑term lunar presence, Krispy Kreme is debuting a limited‑edition Artemis II Doughnut, launching just in time for this historic moment in space exploration.

Artemis II Doughnut

Available through April 10 at participating Krispy Kreme shops nationwide, the Artemis II Doughnut starts with the brand’s Original Glazed doughnut, the same favorite loved for generations, then “blasts off” with a bold new look inspired by NASA’s mission. The doughnut is dipped in blue, vanilla-flavored icing, sprinkled with a mix of OREO crunch and white nonpareils, finished with a cookies-and-cream-flavored buttercream dollop, and topped with a red chevron nod to the NASA logo. It’s familiar, nostalgic, and mission-ready.

The limited-edition doughnut is also available as part of the Artemis II Specialty Dozen, featuring six Artemis II Doughnuts and six Original Glazed doughnuts … because every historic launch deserves a classic onboard.

“Big moments bring people together, and it doesn’t get much bigger than humans heading back into deep space,” said Alison Holder, Krispy Kreme chief brand and product officer. “We took our iconic Original Glazed® doughnut and gave it a mission-worthy makeover so fans can celebrate Artemis II in a fun, delicious way, right alongside history.”

Artemis II will mark NASA’s first crewed mission aboard the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket and Orion spacecraft. Four astronauts will spend about 10 days in deep space to confirm all the spacecraft’s systems operate as designed with crew aboard. The test flight will provide critical performance data and operational experience for future Artemis missions, including landing American astronauts back on the Moon for the first time in more than 50 years.
