"Celebrate Chocolate" Theme At Krispy Kreme

Watch out, donuts lovers of the world. Krispy Kreme, that iconic, yummy scented denizen of the South, has unveiled a new treat. Called the Dark Chocolate Kreme Doughnut, the signature yeast raised doughnut is filled with a rich dark chocolate cream and hand dipped in dark chocolate frosting. It is then drizzled with more chocolate. The doughnut is available for a limited time and will be out of their shops by February 14.

In conjunction with their “Celebrate Chocolate” theme, Krispy Kreme pairs the Dark Chocolate doughnut with their European Dark Hot Chocolate. The hot chocolate is topped with whipped cream and a chocolate drizzle. Be careful, though – this combination may be delicious, warm and filling during the brutal weather we’ve been experiencing this winter, but it’s deadly to your diet.

The Dark Chocolate Doughnut has 360 calories, 22 grams of fat and 40 grams of carbohydrates. A 16 ounce Hot Chocolate contains 320 calories, 8 grams of fat and 85 grams of carbohydrates. If you choose this afternoon snack, you’ll need to spend more than 3 hours walking at a brisk pace or play racquetball for more than an hour and a half to counteract it.

Corner Bakery's 30th Anniversary a Success Despite Winter Storm

The Corner Bakery in Onancock celebrated its 30th Anniversary over the weekend despite the weather. Connie Smith of the Corner Bakery says they did not expect the turnout to be as well as it was.

"We think we sold almost 600 dozen doughnuts, we could not keep exact count because we just couldnt keep up," said Smith.

Smith said because of the heavy snow fall, they were not sure if anyone would show up. Still, Smith and her employees showed up as planned at 3:00 AM and began make doughnuts for the historic anniversary.

"We sold six days worth of doughnuts in 5 hours," added Smith. "Some people sat in line for a half hour of longer just to get to the counter."

As for the people who received "rain checks" from the Corner Bakery, Smith said they can come in at any time and still get the same deal that was offered for the 30th anniversary.

Smith said she would like to give a heartfelt thanks to not only the customers who braved the cold weather Saturday, but all the Corner Bakery customers over the past 30 years.
