Krispy Kreme cake mix

Ok this is the first I've seen, but Betty Crocker has a new cake mix. Krispy Kreme cake with original glaze. I saw it in Walmart, almost bought 1 just to try. I'm still tempted. It's a bundt cake mix.

@software that's a pretty steep price for a box mix.

You're paying extra for the use of namebrand "Krispy Kreme." I think for a new product on the shelf, $2.84/box isn't pricey.

I may try it. Their glazed donuts are super sweet IMO. Since it's a bundt cake I don't think it would be overly sweet.

I bought 2 boxes of this mix last year. It has a nut meggy aftertaste. I was using this mix for 2 Nordic Ware lamb and bunny cake molds. For those that shop a TJ Maxx and Home Goods - they where the 3d standing Easter molds that where sold in 2016.

It is okay - I have yet to use the 2nd box. I really like the pound cake texture better and I used whipped cream cheese icing with coconut (pressed onto the icing).

Those cakes where delicous ! This year I may color the coconut ... still on the fence with that idea since I place the actual cake on Easter grass.

I never found them last year and I live where Krispy Kreme started. Go figure. There was a blog about this last year and many complaints of it not tasting like the donuts.

I tried this cake mix last year, couldn't resist. I used a portion of the frosting and it was so sweet and did leave an aftertaste. I was hopeful but just couldn't eat it and that's rare for me as I am a sweet eater.

I'm not so fond of Krispy Kreme Donuts that I'd want a cake that tastes like them. I'd rather have a cake that tastes like cake.

I made it well over a year ago and I too feel it had an after taste and also a taste of used frying grease.

It's AWFUL!

Terrible taste, inbetween a cake mix and pound cake.

I threw it out, weird taste, nothing like the donuts.

Thanks for all the reviews. I'm not craving cake now, but I sure am craving Krispy Kremes -- especially the chocolate frosted glazed doughnuts warm off the line. Fortunately I'd have to drive a long way to get to there and the weather is bad. Shame on you for triggering my addiction !

There is also a mix for a cake with the chocolate icing instead of the original icing.

Just trying to do my part!

Thx for the reviews. I saw it at Wal-Mart the other day & passed. The packaging did not make me go YUM!!! so I did not buy it. Glad I passed now after reading the reviews. I hate that overly sweet stuff.

Saw those yesterday at Wally world. They were about $2.25.

Ladies I tried it too and was very disappointed. Very sweet and strong after taste. Tastes nothing like the good ole fattening glazed donuts I remember as a child.

I MADE IT ITS SO GOOD MADE IN A BUNT PAN TRY IT

Overall, it got a 3 star review on Wal-M's website. It seems like people either loved it or hated it. A common complaint was that it did not fill the bundt pan and therefore made a tiny cake.

Now, I want the real thing!
