Come on, Barbie — let’s go get the Barbie 65th birthday doughnuts from Krispy Kreme!
Krispy Kreme is celebrating the 65th anniversary of Barbie with a line of Barbie-inspired doughnuts. The doughnuts are now available nationwide for a limited time.
“We’re excited to celebrate the Barbie brand’s 65th birthday with a collaboration that’s full of fun and flavor. We’re bringing Barbie’s iconic fashions to life through delicious doughnuts that are sure to thrill Barbie and Krispy Kreme fans alike,” said Dave Skena, global chief brand officer for Krispy Kreme, per a Krispy Kreme press release .
All four of the limited-edition Barbie doughnuts feature “unique designs and fabulous flavor” inspired by the “trend-setting and timeless global fashion doll.”
Mattel debuted the first Barbie doll in March 1959, per Barbie Media . Barbie dolls diversified and expanded over the course of six and a half decades, but one feature about the doll remained a staple — Barbie pink.
Krispy Kreme and Mattel highlighted this in the line of Barbie doughnuts.
“Barbie and Krispy Kreme are two brands that immediately spark joy and elicit sweet memories,” said Meredith Norrie, vice president of global licensing and consumer products for Mattel.
“As we continue to celebrate Barbie’s 65th anniversary this year, Krispy Kreme is the perfect partner to join us, inviting fans across generations to enjoy the perfect blend of flavor and style, with nods to Barbie sprinkled into every bite.”
