Krispy Kreme Rolls Out Mother’s Day Sweet Treat, ‘Minis for Mom’

Krispy Kreme is celebrating moms everywhere with a special lineup of sweet treats called “Minis for Mom,” arriving just in time for Mother’s Day.

The bite-sized doughnuts are available at Krispy Kreme through May 11. They feature four new flavors and are decorated in bright colors (some with heart-icing toppers).

The Minis for Mom Collection features a selection of mini original glazed doughnuts topped with a variety of icings and crumbles. A press release shares the following details of the rollout.

• Mini Strawberry Sunshine Doughnut: A bite-sized Original Glazed doughnut covered in strawberry-flavored icing, finished with yellow and orange drizzle and a swirl of yellow vanilla buttercreme.
• Mini Chocolate Chip Cookie Delight Doughnut: A mini doughnut coated in rich chocolate icing and sprinkled with chocolate chip cookie crumbles, then topped with a dollop of cookie dough-flavored buttercreme.
• Mini Chocolate Iced Yellow Heart Doughnut: A mini doughnut with a smooth chocolate icing layer, adorned with a cheerful yellow icing heart.
• Mini Sparkly Vanilla Sunset Doughnut: This treat features a bright yellow vanilla icing and a dusting of pink sanding sugar for a touch of sparkle.

“Our new minis are a fresh and sweet way to brighten the day for moms and other mother figures who bring so much joy to our lives — not just on Mother’s Day, but all week long,” said Dave Skena, Krispy Kreme’s chief growth officer.

Customers can purchase these special desserts both in-store and via delivery. The doughnuts come in two-count and 16-count boxes.

Grocery stores that typically carry Krispy Kreme doughnuts in stock should also have this special mini edition in a box of eight. Customers inquiring about where to purchase can search online to find a shop or retailer near their home.

Krispy Kreme Continues To Deliver Value to Its Customers

Krispy Kreme’s promotions deliver a bit of fun and value to its loyal customer base. The bakery retailer prides itself on ensuring that all can enjoy its treats via promotions and giveaways throughout the year.

Currently, the company allows customers to add a dozen Original Glazed doughnuts to any order for $9.99. Typically, the price point of this item is $12.99. Also, by creating a free account via Krispy Kreme’s app, customers can get a free Original Glazed doughnut with any purchase.

Also, on May 7, customers can stop in any bakery for a free Original Glazed Doughnut on the day that all Real IDs must be completed to either fly or enter federal facilities. The promotion is available all day in stores or via the drive-thru, one doughnut per guest, and the bakery’s Instagram page says that there’s “no Real ID required.”

One of the bakery chain’s most popular promotions is National Doughnut Day, typically held in early June. Customers can score a free doughnut of their choice with no purchase necessary, making it a fan-favorite event that draws big crowds.

Another yearly highlight is Halloween, when Krispy Kreme offers free doughnuts to customers who visit in costume. The chain also launches spooky-themed doughnuts during the season, featuring fun shapes, colors, and festive names.

Valentine’s Day brings heart-shaped doughnuts filled with chocolate or fruit flavors, often paired with limited-time deals and packaging. Easter usually includes colorful minis or themed assortments.

Graduation season also gets attention, with free doughnuts for high school or college seniors who show proof of graduation. Around Christmas, Krispy Kreme rolls out holiday flavors.

The retailer frequently offers Buy One Get One Free (BOGO) deals, $1 dozen offers with purchase, and limited-edition flavors tied to pop culture events or new store openings. These pop culture tie-ins generate buzz, boost in-store visits, and give customers even more reasons to stop by, whether they’re longtime fans or new visitors drawn in by the latest trend.

Customers who join the Krispy Kreme Rewards program also get special birthday treats and early access to new products.
