Short answer: The Krispy Kreme Protein Cookie Crumble Doughnut has 13 g of protein, 393 calories, 19.4 g fat, 39.2 g carbs and 19.3 g sugar per doughnut (100 g), according to Krispy Kreme Australia. It's part of a "Protein Powered" limited edition in Australia only, from November 11 to November 22–23, 2026, with a protein shake (from 30 g protein) and a 43 g protein combo. Krispy Kreme hasn't announced it for the US.

What's in it?

A shell doughnut filled with protein cookie creme (made with whey protein isolate), dipped in milk chocolate ganache, coated in cocoa soy crispies and chocolate biscuit crumb, then drizzled with more ganache.

The full Protein Powered lineup

Item Protein
Protein Cookie Crumble Doughnut 13 g
Protein Cookie Crumble Shake From 30 g (large, full cream milk)
Protein Combo (doughnut + large shake) From 43 g

Prices in Australia: a Protein Cookie Crumble Dozen (6 protein doughnuts + 6 Original Glazed) is A$41, and a two-dozen pack was A$56 on sale (from A$69). Online orders close 4:59 PM AEDT, November 22; shops run to November 23 or while stocks last.

Is the Krispy Kreme protein doughnut in the US?

No. It's an Australia-only limited edition, and Krispy Kreme US hasn't announced a protein doughnut as of November 12, 2026. US shops have the Krispy Kreme Holiday Collection instead.

Is it actually healthy?

It's a doughnut with more protein, not a diet food: 393 calories and 19 g of sugar is more than a Glazed doughnut and close to a candy bar's sugar. If protein is the goal, the 43 g combo comes with a large milkshake's calories too.
