Krispy Kreme is combining two fall favorites — seasonal flavors and football — with the Sept. 10 launch of its new Apple Cider Original Glazed Doughnut and Fall & Football Dozen, the company announced in a news release. The apple cider doughnut features apple cider-infused dough spiced with cinnamon and finished with the brand's signature glaze. The football-themed dozen includes football-shaped Kreme-filled doughnuts, along with Pumpkin Spice Cake, Maple Cheesecake and Original Glazed varieties.

For four days only, Sept. 10-13, customers also can get a dozen Apple Cider Original Glazed Doughnuts for $5 with the purchase of any dozen at regular price at participating locations. The new offerings build on Krispy Kreme's broader autumn menu, which launched in August with seasonal doughnuts and beverages.

"Fall is full of rituals people look forward to – apple cider, game day, watch parties and sharing moments with friends," Alison Holder, chief product and brand officer at Krispy Kreme, said in the release. "With Apple Cider Original Glazed and our Fall & Football Dozen, we're giving fans a delicious new way to celebrate the season."
