Krispy Kreme and Peanuts Collaborate on the Sweetest Holiday Treat

For 75 years, Charlie Brown, Snoopy, and all the Peanuts gang have brought holiday joy to countless celebrations. Since 1937, Krispy Kreme has delighted fans with its irresistible Original Glazed Doughnuts. Now, the two icons have joined forces to deliver extra cheer to the end of 2025. Ready to unwrap the sweetest gift?

Over the years, Krispy Kreme has partnered with various pop culture icons. From living legends like Dolly Parton to major candy brands like Hershey’s, these diverse collaborations show how teamwork amplifies excitement for iconic treats.

While Krispy Kreme has created its own special holiday traditions, this season’s celebration taps into people’s longing for nostalgia. Although “newstalgic” may be overused, blending familiar imagery and memories with a modern twist appeals to a wide audience. When young, old, and everyone in between can find a place around the table, everyone wins.

The Krispy Kreme x Peanuts Collection captures that spirit. Sold in a custom dozen box, the specialty collection debuts on November 29, 2025. Featuring three all-new doughnuts, the iconic Peanuts by Charles M. Schulz imagery warms the heart as much as Krispy Kreme's sweetness satisfies the craving.

As Alison Holder, Chief Brand and Product Officer for Krispy Kreme, said, “Just like Charlie Brown, Snoopy and the Peanuts gang, our new holiday collection will bring joy, sweetness, and a little extra happiness to all.”

Scott Shillet, Vice President, Global Licensing for Peanuts, explained, “Peanuts has brought joy to fans during the holiday season for decades. As we celebrate Peanuts’ 75th anniversary this year, we look to collaborate with partners like Krispy Kreme to continue that tradition for fans of all ages.”

The three new doughnut flavors are Snoopy Cookies & Kreme Doughnut, Charlie Brown Ornament Doughnut, and Christmas Wreath Doughnut. These festive additions join returning favorites—the Santa Belly Doughnut and Holiday Sprinkle Doughnut—to complete the dozen.

The richest doughnut is the Charlie Brown Ornament Doughnut. Filled with brownie batter, this chocolate-forward doughnut offers indulgence behind its simple, classic exterior. At last, Charlie Brown gets his well-deserved spotlight moment.

The Snoopy Cookies & Kreme Doughnut delivers a flavor experience as universally appealing as Snoopy himself. One glance and one bite are enough to bring a smile to the table.

In some ways, many people may opt for doughnuts over the traditional holiday cookie plate. The serving size may be larger, but the cheerful holiday sweetness is worth the indulgence. Maybe it is time to consider a new tradition.

Overall, the Peanuts doughnut collection is destined to be a huge hit. Whether someone orders a dozen or more, the reality is simple: this collaboration brings holiday cheer to any celebration. Maybe it is time to rethink Santa’s midnight snack.

Ready to bring an extra sweet treat to the holiday season? Krispy Kreme and Peanuts have created the most charming collection yet. Some people might say “good grief,” but no one will turn down one of these delicious doughnuts.
