Krispy Kremes
 
Ok... so finally I got to see what all the fuss was about. As far as I know the only Krispy Kremes in the UK is in Harrods. So on my recent trip to the Theatre in London I had to go try some! All I can say is it's a good job I don't live in London! Yum!

I don't go out of my way for doughnuts, but I love these. They just melt in your mouth.

I think these are so overrated. My mom absolutely hates them, and she is a lifelong doughnut expert. they may have used to be good straight from the shop, but in a box, they're just boxed doughnuts. The raised glazed from my corner bakery are 10 times better....

Me too...
 
I think Krispy Kreme is overrated. They are entirely too sweet for my taste buds. I don't care for glazed donuts, I prefer chocolate with sprinkles. Hehe. Yep, I'm 5.

That said, do enjoy them, Pip!

Never again...They're very over-rated!!!

I love Krispy Kremes when they're fresh, but after a day or two, they're not as good.

My absolute favorite type of donuts are the jelly-filled. *drools*

Nah...
 
I agree with you guys, I'll take chocolate covered Dunkin Donuts over Krispy Kremes any day. :shrug:

Are you all insane??? Dunkin' Donuts are dry! Have you had the Krispy Kremes when they're hot?? That's when they're best.....

IMHO, when they're hot is the only time they're edible. There's a reason they have that sign out front to let you know when they're coming out of the oven. Even KKs that are only a few hours old and have cooled are horrid.

But when they're hot, and you have a glass of cold milk to wash them down ... heaven. :angel:

Ah doughnut talk...something I can really get into ;)

I'm not such a big fan of Krisy Kremes...BUT I also have a strange aversion to businesses that spell things incorrectly haha...

But the first time I tried a KK doughnut..I thought it was great - so I ate two...and got sicker than heck...it was gross....so I tried another a while later and it was okay..nothing to write home about...

I'm a Dunkin' (this is okay- they shortened the word rather than mispelling it) Doughnut loyalist....I like them best...

I used to make doughnuts, in a BIG factory, for close to 5 years. Krispy Kreme tasted better then the one's I used to make, but I don't even like Krispy Kreme. There is a mom and pop shop up the street from me called Longs. These are absolutely the greatest doughnuts I've ever had the pleasure of tasting! I buy them at least once a week to take to work with me. They are absolutely awesome.

My favorite is chocolate glazed bavarian filled...um-um-um! :thumbsup:

I am a die hard Dunkin Donut fan... Krispy Kreme is not all it's cracked up to be... DD's french cruellers are the best even though they are lighter then a feather!

diamondsnake 08-30-2004 11:29 PM

Speaking of KK, has anyone tried their glazed donut drink? Is it any good? It sounds like a rip off of a Starbucks Frappaccino.
