Krispy Kreme’s New Baked Creations

Posted on by jane

I just got a whole box of Krispy Kreme’s new Baked Creations!

I’ve always loved their Baked Creations because many times when I am running to different places and need to skip breakfast but do not want to be feeling hunger pangs before lunch comes around, it is what sustains me. I remember they had 4 variants before: Cheese, Sausage and Cheese, Bacon and Cheese and Cinnamon.

Now they have 6 new flavors. Let’s meet them.

1. Klassic Brioche – A light, classic French bread with a slightly sweet taste

2. Klassic Brioche with Ham – Klassic Brioche but topped with bellpepper, farmers ham, and cheddar cheese

3. Honey Camembert – Sweet dough bread with camembert cheese and honey, topped with roasted walnuts (the honey is contained in a separate dropper so you can squeeze it into the bread yourself)

4. Cube Bread – A light, slightly sweet bread filled with chocolate ganache

5. Heart Danish – A danish pastry sprinkled with sugar coating

6. Custard Kreme – Sweet dough bread topped with creamy custard

Baked Creations are open at all Krispy Kreme branches until 2pm for a minimum price of PhP 50.
Thank you, Krispy Kreme. My family is enjoying the treat.

The Green Iced Sting Krispy Kreme Doughnuts

Limited edition Green Hornet doughnuts
A surprise was waiting for me today while I was having breakfast. A box of Krispy Kreme doughnuts was delivered to my home.
I did not get to try it immediately because I was already eating and had to leave soon after so it was only this afternoon that I got to sink my teeth into this green doughnut with white zigzags.
This line of Krispy Kreme doughnuts is inspired by the upcoming Green Hornet movie, which I also want to watch. When I bit into the doughnut, I realized that the green icing tasted exactly like bubblegum while the white zigzags gave the bubblegum a cool mint twist. Yummy!
This is a limited edition and will last only till February 13. Go try it and maybe buy some before you head out to watch the Green Hornet.

Krispy Kreme’s Ho-Ho-Holiday Doughnuts Are Here

Posted on by jane
This was the surprise that arrived today. Krispy Kreme‘s holiday doughnuts are out!!!
Kids really love the way Krispy Kreme celebrates events and special occasions because they come up with the most creative, yummy-looking doughnuts. My own kids love Krispy Kreme a lot.
There are three variants this year. First is Mr. Snowman. He was around last year too with his red and green scarves but they gave him a slightly new look this year. Next is the vanilla-frosted square-shaped doughnuts decked with green and red icing ribbons. They almost look like tiny presents. And third is the round-shaped doughnuts with vanilla frosting and green and red sprinkles.
My Christmas doughnuts came in a very simple but elegant-looking metal Krispy Kreme can in Christmas-y colors. 
If you are still wondering what to give family and friends for Christmas, look no further. Your yummy present will look great packaged in a KK box like this one.
And yes, I had to hurriedly take pictures of the doughnuts before all my kids come home from school and devour them all. 🙂

Krispy Kreme Contest: Entries for May 17-23, 2010 (Winner Announced)

Posted on by jane

And the winner is….

OK, before that, let me first introduce my special judge. She is not a Mom. Neither is she a kid. But she is almost like a Mom. She’s one of our yayas at home — Yaya Em, who has been with our family for over 10 years. I showed the photo entries to Yaya Em and asked her to rank them 1,2,3. Then I counted the unique votes for each entrant.

The winner for this week was the top choice of Yaya Em and also garnered the most unique votes – 27.

Congratulations, Roanne Lim! You win a dozen Krispy Kreme doughnuts! (I will email you further details)

Tomorrow (May 24, Monday) we begin another week of this contest. The 2 entries that did not win this week qualify as entries for the 2nd week. However, this week’s votes no longer count and you will need to gather your family & friends to vote again for your picture (I will put up another post for the 2nd week and that is where voting should be done).

———————————————————————————————————————

We’re posting below the entries for Week May 17-23, 2010 of the Krispy Kreme contest (You and Your Mom). You can still join in. Send your photos with Mom in. May 22 is last day for this week’s entries. Late entries (after May 22) will be entered in next week’s list of entries.

To vote for your favorite picture, please leave a comment on this post stating the entrant’s name and why you chose his/her photo for your vote. I’m picking the winner by Sunday, May 23, 2010 based on the following criteria:

  • 40% – how closely the photo reflects entrant’s relationship with Mom
  • 35% – impact of explanation as to why the photo is magical
  • 25% – number of positive comments the entry elicits from my readers 

Entrant: Bernadette Jamie Eustaquio
“This is me and my mother having “kulitan-photoshoot” at Microtel Palawan. Both of us dont know how to kayak,that’s why we just took a picture in it.It is also rare that we have bonding moments especially when I started working. =)”


Entrant: Ria Tirazona
“My mom has been (and always will be!) my staunchest supporter and one of her biggest wishes for me ever since childhood was to lose weight. This is a magical moment in our lives because for the first time ever, I was able to sit next to her in a bikini in one of our favorite places to be in, Boracay. It was a fulfillment of both our dreams and even though I have gained weight again, I still feel her solid support no matter what!”


Entrant: Roanne Lim
“Today is yaya’s day off.  I think I’ll be busy today watching over my mom. :)”



Krispy Kreme Contest: You and Your Mom

Posted on by jane

Mother’s Day may be over but the month of May (dedicated to mothers) isn’t. Celebrating the month of mothers can be done for the entire 31 days of the month.

Krispy Kreme has new creations that are worth taking your most-loved mother on a Krispy Kreme date for. Their theme centers around mangoes – the tropical fruit that everyone loves. First, there is the Mango Kreme Cake – made of chunky bits of mangoes mixed with custard set atop of soft vanilla cake and garnished with graham cracker bits.

Of course, the best partner of the Mango Kreme Cake is the Mango Kreme Chiller – a thirst-quenching beverage made of mangoes and topped with whipped cream.
Now, you still have a chance to show how much you love your Mom and it is so easy. Here are the simple mechanics:
2. Once you’ve followed Chloe, email a photo of yourself and your mother having a magical moment with a brief description (2-3 sentences) on why it is magical to the e-mail address of Chloe (hotlightgirl.chloe@gmail.com). Copy me on your email entry by sending same entry to my email address (thephilippinebeat@gmail.com) so that I’m sure to include your photo in my next blog post.

The photo can be an old one or a recent one. With your email, include the following info:

  • Full Name
  • Facebook Name
  • Age
  • Blog where you saw this promo, which in this case is my blog (The Philippine Beat)
  • Date of submission

3. Chloe will email me your photo entry which I will post on my blog. You have 2 chances to win because the first week’s contest runs from May 17-21 (one winner to be announced May 23) and the second week’s contest runs from May 24-30 (noon) (one winner to be announced May 30). Non-winners from the first week remain eligible in the second week.

4. The winner of each week will be chosen by a guest judge of my choice based on the following criteria:

  • 40% – how closely the photo reflects your relationship with your Mom
  • 35% – impact of your explanation as to why the photo is magical
  • 25% – number of positive comments your entry elicits from my readers (you may ask your family and friends to comment but please…NO SPAMMING). I reserve the right to disregard what I deem to be spam comments.

The judge’s choice is FINAL.

5. I will email the weekly winners and ask the winners to tell me which KK branch the prize will be claimed from. Each winner gets a free box of Krispy Kreme doughnuts.

6. To claim your prize, print out the email from me confirming that you won and present it to the KK branch with one valid ID. Claiming period is until June 4, 2010.

7. Prizes are not convertible to cash and can only be claimed personally at a KK branch. I won’t be able to mail/post/deliver the boxes to the winners.

“DOugh YOUR PART” on May 10: Go out and VOTE!

Posted on by jane

Just one week from now and the Philippines will hold its first automated elections.

Many citizens’ groups have joined hands to help the voting public. A big concern is teaching the public to vote in a different way from the old procedure of writing the candidates’ names on a ballot. Mock elections held in different parts of the country showed that so many still were not sure how to vote.

In an effort to do their share in spreading awareness of exactly HOW TO VOTE, Krispy Kreme has come out with an innovative, and fun, way to make voters comfortable with the new ballot. Beginning this Labor Day weekend, all Krispy Kreme customers will be asked to fill out their orders for doughnuts using this mock-up ballot. Mark Gamboa, Marketing Manager of Krispy Kreme, has this to say about the mock ballot, “We wanted to make it a fun learning experience for the voters. This will help them prepare for the real, automated voting system.”

(back of KK ballot)
And, from May 8 to May 10 only, limited edition Krispy Kreme Vote 2010 doughnuts will be available for sale.
I’m going to be one of those making a beeline for the Vote 2010 doughnuts this weekend. I suggest you get your family boxes before they run out. These will be great snacks to bring to the voting precincts as well. Sugar rush = high energy! Yes, I’ll need a lot of energy to get over these days running up to Election Day.
And oh…one more message from Krispy Kreme…

Snickers is Now a Doughnut!

Posted on by jane

First it was Reese’s peanut butter. Now, Krispy Kreme is introducing the popular Snickers brand into its doughnut line.

Snickers Krispy Kreme

 The Snickers doughnut is made of delicious peanut butter nougat chocolate bar topped on Krispy Kreme‘s signature doughnut.
 While you and your family are enjoying this doughnut at Krispy Kreme, why not join their search for Krispy Kreme’s Fave Fan and have a chance to have a doughnut named after you, a year’s supply of Krispy Kreme treats, and a trip to the home of Krispy Kreme in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, USA.
