A New Format for a Classic
Krispy Kreme has built its entire global reputation on a single shape: the ring doughnut. While they have experimented with bites, minis, and filled variations, the core product remains fundamentally unchanged. This new concept image proposes a significant departure, moving the famous Original Glaze into a completely different format: the rectangular traybake slice.
The packaging mockup shows nine pre-scored portions in a cellophane-wrapped tray, branded as ‘Original Glaze Slices’. This suggests the base would be the same light, fluffy, yeast-raised dough as the doughnuts, but baked as a single sheet. It’s a move that would take Krispy Kreme out of its dedicated cabinets and place it directly into the ambient cake aisle, alongside brands like Mr Kipling and Cadbury.
The Flavour Choice
The flavour here is Sticky Toffee Pudding, a heavyweight of the British dessert menu. This choice aligns perfectly with Krispy Kreme UK’s long-standing strategy of launching limited editions based on local tastes and brand collaborations. Past partnerships have included tie-ins with Lotus Biscoff and KitKat, creating huge demand.
Sticky Toffee Pudding is an unambiguous flavour profile built on dates, dark muscovado sugar, and a rich toffee or butterscotch sauce. The mockup artwork reflects this, showing a darker, spiced sponge base, a thick layer of sauce, and what appear to be small fudge pieces scattered on top. It’s a classic, comforting combination designed to have broad appeal, shifting the brand from a morning treat to an evening dessert.
From Cabinet to Cake Aisle
This product, were it to exist, would represent a major shift in Krispy Kreme’s retail strategy. Currently, their supermarket presence is limited to branded cabinets near the entrance or bakery section, stocking pre-boxed dozens of their fresh doughnuts. The ‘Slices’ format is clearly designed for a long-life product that can sit on a standard shelf.
This would put the company in direct competition with the established players in the UK’s shareable cake market. It’s a logical step for a brand looking to expand its footprint beyond its current model. By leveraging its powerful brand recognition and the unique texture of its Original Glaze dough, Krispy Kreme could potentially carve out a new space for itself in a very traditional category.
What the real range looks like
This ‘Slices’ format is a new concept for Krispy Kreme. The brand’s current UK retail offerings focus on their classic ring doughnuts and filled varieties, available individually or in multi-packs, rather than shareable traybakes.
