Krispy Kreme is getting in on the celestial action this week with the release of a special donut honoring the upcoming total solar eclipse over North America on April 8th.
The popular donut chain will be offering the limited-edition "Total Solar Eclipse" donut at participating locations across the United States and Canada.
The Eclipse donut features a classic original glazed donut dipped in a rich black chocolate icing meant to represent the moon passing in front of the sun. It is then topped with a spray of silver sprinkles and an Oreo buttercream swirl. A whole Oreo sandwich cookie stuffed right into the center of the donut. According to Krispy Kreme, the layers of the Oreo were specifically included to mimic the alignment of the sun, moon, and earth during a total solar eclipse event.
Just remember, don't eat one unless you have the matching glasses!
