    Currently it’s only available in the UK , with no word yet on whether the pink pastries will land stateside.

    Mattel first created the iconic Barbie toys 65 years ago, and now they’ve teamed up with Krispy Kreme to sell four new donuts.

    It’s currently selling in grocery stores and on delivery apps in Britain until October 6 or while supplies last.

    Some have guessed that it may soon come to the US.

    “This collab is speculated to drop sometime this week,” food blogger Markie Devo said on Instagram .

    The U.S. Sun could not yet independently confirm if there will be a launch on this side of the Atlantic.

    GO NUTS

    Krispy Kreme UK is offering four new donuts.

    The Barbie Pink Doughnut is an original glazed with pink frosting and sugar.

    The Barbie Sweet 65th is an ordinary chocolate-dipped donut with Barbie-inspired sprinkles.

    The next is a Berries N’ Kreme donut filled with strawberry cream.

    Finally, the chain is offering an online exclusive, the Malibu Dream Party donut.

    It’s filled with cookie butter and has cookie crumb & “gold nibs” on top.

    FANS REACT

    As the doll brand celebrates reaching retirement age, it has gained new popularity after the successful launch of the Barbie movie last year.

    Many online celebrated the donut launch.

    “These are iconic, the filled ones sound great,” one said on Markie Devo’s post.

    “Ooooh for the girls!!” another said.

    Some noticed another classic Mattel character that was conspicuously absent.

    “That’s so ‘Ken’ to leave Ken out,” they commented.

    Others complained that the collab was too similar to Krispy Kreme’s ordinary offerings .

    “They need a new team, their collab donuts is just for looks,” they said. “Same regular boring flavors.”

    The U.S. Sun reached out to Krispy Kreme and Mattel for more details on a possible US launch.

    Food bloggers have shared other big changes as well.

    One recently hinted at a rumored change to Capri Sun that has some fans fuming .
