Get your doughnut-eating pants ready, Cape Town; Krispy Kreme has just announced it will be opening a store right here in the Mother City.
As we bid a farewell to the Dunkin Donuts franchise, we welcome another emporium of fried doughy delights and we have a hunch that this one just might work out.
Krispy Kreme says locals can look forward to the Cape Town store opening its doors before the year is out.
“The home of the ‘original glazed doughnut’ is coming to Cape Town! Krispy Kreme Doughnuts, an iconic brand in existence since 1937 will be opening their first Cape Town store towards the end of 2019,” it said.
The location of the store has not yet been confirmed, but rumour has it that it will be located in the CBD.
‘’Krispy Kreme’s unique hot doughnut experience has certainly created memories in South Africa since our iconic sweet treat brand launched in 2015. Its been a long time coming but the establishment of the Cape Town market is hugely significant and extremely exciting. Everybody deserves a happy place and Krispy Kreme South Africa’s valuable team work hard at creating the most awesome doughnut experience imaginable. Product innovation, premium coffee and frozen beverages set our brand apart. We can’t wait to touch and enhance lives in Cape Town through the joy of Krispy Kreme’’, says Gerry Thomas, managing director of Krispy Kreme South Africa.
In the meantime, here are a few of their deliciously unique doughnuts to prepare your palate for the sugary goodness that awaits it:
