Krispy Kreme to debut doughnut-inspired ice cream in Charlotte

CHARLOTTE — Krispy Kreme Inc. is adding soft-serve ice cream to its menu in 10 U.S. markets, including Charlotte.

The Charlotte-based company is now dishing up Original Glazed Soft Serve. It is made with ingredients from Krispy Kreme’s proprietary doughnut recipe, blending the glaze flavor with real whole milk.

Plans call for three flavors of soft serve — Original Glazed, Strawberry Iced Sprinkled and Chocolate Iced — in cups or handmade waffle cones, made fresh daily using Krispy Kreme’s doughnut mix. There are seven hand-spun shakes inspired by fan-favorite doughnut flavors

Eight locations in the area are included in the rollout. Check out the full story here for the list.
