In 2019, Krispy Kreme doughnuts were filled with chocolate and Reese's peanut butter.
"Partnering with Reese's to launch a brand-new line of frozen treats that have the same swirls of peanut butter, chocolate drizzles and chunks found in America's #1 candy is certainly something worth screaming about," Russel Lilly, the president of Unilever Ice Cream North America, said. "We're excited to be bringing more Reese's frozen treats to our fans than ever before – giving them exactly the kind of sweet treat they've been looking for."
