Sugar Savvy

Do you love Krispy Kreme like I do? Talk about delectable. Their just-baked Original Frosted donuts practically melt in your mouth. Actually, there are times when I swear they have melted in my mouth. Mmm. Now I am salivating. If only there was a Krispy Kreme closer to here . . . *sigh*

Well, Krispy Kreme has joined forces with Taste of the South magazine to sponsor a recipe contest that challenges participants to create an original recipe using Krispy Kreme donuts.

“We are excited to partner with Taste of the South in search of a dessert as delicious and unique as Paula Deen’s celebrated Krispy Kreme bread pudding,” said Ron Rupocinski, executive chef for Krispy Kreme Doughnuts, Inc. “The Krispy Kreme Ultimate Recipe Contest is a chance for everyone to get creative and share their own unique recipes featuring their favorite Krispy Kreme doughnuts.”

The contest will be judged by a panel of five including Rupocinski and Taste of the South Editor Lorna Reeves. The judges are all geared up to taste the fanciful creations . . . “I can’t wait to sample the many delicious ways clever cooks and bakers will use Krispy Kreme doughnuts in their recipes. Let the tasting begin!” Reeves said.
