Krispy Kreme Review: Cinnamon Sugar Cake Doughnut
This one shifts completely away from the filled, topped doughnuts and goes back to something much more classic.
Visually, it’s simple — no glaze, no filling, just a cake-style doughnut coated in cinnamon sugar.
The texture is the biggest difference here. Instead of that airy yeast dough, this one is denser, more crumbly, and closer to a traditional cake doughnut.
The cinnamon sugar coating does most of the work flavour-wise. It’s warm, slightly spiced, and evenly distributed so you get it in every bite.
The dough itself is mild, which works because it lets the coating stand out.
This is probably the least “extra” doughnut of the group, but it’s also one of the easiest to eat.
It doesn’t feel heavy, overly sweet, or overly rich. It’s just consistent.
Texture-wise, you get a slight crisp on the outside from the sugar coating and a soft, crumbly inside.
This is one of those doughnuts you could have with coffee without it feeling like a full dessert.
Final Verdict:
A simple, classic cake doughnut with warm cinnamon sugar flavour. Not flashy, but very reliable.
