Krispy Kreme just made the World Cup way more delicious

The iconic doughnut chain is serving up soccer-themed sweetness just as the tournament kicks off — and there’s a deal you won’t want to miss.

The FIFA World Cup rolls around once every four years, and brands large and small are jostling for a piece of the soccer craze. Coca-Cola has dropped soccer ball-shaped bottles. Lay’s has unveiled chips inspired by Argentina and Brazil. McDonald’s launched a FIFA World Cup 26 Happy Meal. Even home cooks are leaning in, pulling together watch party spreads and globally inspired dishes in honor of the teams competing for the championship title.

Now, the doughnut world has something to say about it, too.

Krispy Kreme has officially unveiled its Match Day Collection — a limited-edition lineup designed specifically for the World Cup moment. The drop features two brand-new creations: the Kickoff Doughnut and the Soccer Rainbow Doughnut.

The Kickoff Doughnut makes a strong entrance. Stuffed with a Cookies & Kreme filling, it’s decorated to look like a soccer field, complete with a sugar soccer ball resting on top. The visual is unmistakably on theme without being over the top.

The Soccer Rainbow Doughnut takes a brighter approach. Built on Krispy Kreme’s Original Glazed base, it’s dipped in blue vanilla icing and showered with rainbow sprinkles, then finished with a soccer ball piece. It’s vibrant, playful, and practically made for social media — the kind of thing that makes your watch party spread look intentional rather than improvised.

Both new doughnuts are available as part of the Match Day Dozen, a specially curated box that also includes two perennial fan favorites: the Original Glazed and Chocolate Iced with Sprinkles. It’s a solid mix for a crowd — something familiar alongside something new.

The Match Day Dozen goes on sale June 11, which happens to be the exact day tournament matches begin. The timing is deliberate, and the window is tight: the box is only available through June 14. For fans planning watch parties across what promises to be a marathon stretch of early-morning and late-night games, stocking up early is probably the move.

The collection also comes with a promotion that makes the case for buying in bulk. Customers who purchase any dozen or a 16-count Minis pack can get an additional Original Glazed dozen for just two dollars. That’s a deal hard to argue with, especially as the games pile up over the coming days.

Beyond the doughnuts, Krispy Kreme is adding a giveaway to the mix. The chain is offering fans a chance to win an exclusive soccer jersey — one more reason to engage with the brand as World Cup energy builds. Details on how to enter are available on the Krispy Kreme website.

There’s something fitting about doughnuts showing up at the intersection of sport and celebration. The World Cup draws massive, diverse audiences — casual fans and die-hards alike — and brands that lean into the moment with something tangible, shareable, and seasonal tend to find an audience.

Krispy Kreme‘s Match Day Collection checks those boxes. It’s themed without being gimmicky, limited without being inaccessible, and just sweet enough to make a watch party feel like an occasion. Whether you’re tracking the group stage standings or just in it for the snacks, this is one collab worth adding to the rotation before June 14.
