Krispy Kreme and Warner Bros. Join Forces for a Looney Halloween Treat
Halloween is getting a deliciously mischievous makeover as Krispy Kreme® joins forces with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products to introduce a limited-edition collection inspired by some of the most beloved characters in animation history. For the first time, fans can celebrate the spooky season with a lineup of Krispy Kreme doughnuts featuring iconic Looney Tunes™ characters, including Bugs Bunny™, Tweety™, Sylvester™, Taz™ and Lola Bunny™.
Launching Tuesday, October 6, the new Looney Tunes™ Halloween Collection will be available for a limited time at participating Krispy Kreme shops across the United States. The collaboration brings the playful humor, colorful personalities and classic mischief of the Looney Tunes universe into the Krispy Kreme doughnut case, giving customers a fun new way to enjoy Halloween with family and friends.
The collection combines Krispy Kreme’s signature doughnuts with Halloween-inspired flavors, decorations and character-themed sugar pieces. Each doughnut is designed around a different Looney Tunes favorite, creating a collection that is as visually entertaining as it is indulgent.
A Halloween Collection Filled with Looney Tunes Favorites
At the heart of the collaboration is a four-doughnut assortment featuring five recognizable Looney Tunes characters. From Bugs Bunny dressed as a vampire to Taz transformed into a mummy, the designs put a spooky spin on the animated stars while maintaining their playful personalities.
The Bugs Bunny™ Doughnut starts with an unglazed shell doughnut filled with chocolate dulce Kreme™. It is dipped in red dulce icing and finished with chocolate drizzles and bat-shaped sprinkles. The centerpiece is a Bugs Bunny Vampire sugar piece, giving the doughnut a distinctive Halloween look inspired by the legendary character.
For fans of one of the most famous rivalries in cartoon history, the Tweety™ and Sylvester™ Doughnut brings both characters together. The Original Glazed® doughnut is coated in candy corn-flavored icing and colorful confetti sprinkles. A Tweety and Sylvester Pumpkin sugar piece completes the design, creating a festive treat that captures the playful tension between the two characters.
The collection also includes the Taz™ Doughnut, which gives the Tasmanian Devil a spooky transformation. The unglazed shell doughnut is filled with OREO cookies & Kreme® and dipped in chocolate icing before being covered with OREO pieces. Green icing drizzles add a bright finishing touch, while a Taz Mummy sugar piece gives the doughnut its Halloween-inspired personality.
Rounding out the collection is the Lola Bunny™ Doughnut, created with a lighter and colorful design. An Original Glazed doughnut is topped with a purple buttercreme-flavored swirl and decorated with gold stars. A Lola Bunny sugar piece completes the treat, adding another recognizable Looney Tunes character to the seasonal lineup.
Together, the four designs offer customers a variety of flavors and styles while creating an assortment that can easily become part of Halloween parties, family gatherings, office celebrations or casual seasonal treats.
A Playful Partnership for Spooky Season
Krispy Kreme says the collaboration was created to bring together two brands known for fun, creativity and memorable experiences. Looney Tunes characters have remained popular across generations, while Krispy Kreme has developed a reputation for turning seasonal occasions and cultural moments into limited-time doughnut experiences.
“Looney Tunes™ characters have entertained generations of fans with their fun, laughter and mischief, making them a perfect match for Krispy Kreme this Halloween,” said Alison Holder, Krispy Kreme Chief Brand and Product Officer.
Holder added that the collection is intended to capture the playful spirit associated with the Looney Tunes brand while giving consumers a delicious way to celebrate Halloween.
The character-driven designs also make the collection particularly suited to sharing. With their colorful toppings, recognizable characters and Halloween decorations, the doughnuts can serve as both a seasonal snack and a centerpiece for celebrations.
Designed for Halloween Gatherings
Halloween has increasingly become an occasion for themed food, parties and social experiences, and limited-edition products give consumers new ways to participate in the season. Krispy Kreme’s Looney Tunes collection builds on that trend by combining familiar Halloween imagery with characters that have entertained audiences for decades.
The collection’s variety also means customers can mix and match their favorite characters. Fans of Bugs Bunny may choose the vampire-themed doughnut, while Taz fans can enjoy the OREO-filled mummy design. Customers looking for something colorful and festive can opt for the Lola Bunny doughnut, while the Tweety and Sylvester design offers a nostalgic pairing of two classic characters.
Because the doughnuts are available for a limited time, the collection also adds a sense of seasonal urgency for fans who want to experience the collaboration while it lasts.
Available In Shops and Through Digital Ordering
The Looney Tunes Halloween Collection will be available at participating Krispy Kreme locations across the United States beginning October 6. Customers can purchase the doughnuts in shops or order them for pickup and delivery through the Krispy Kreme app and website.
Selected doughnuts from the collection will also be available as part of a Krispy Kreme six-pack through participating retailers. This option gives customers another way to bring the Halloween-themed treats home for sharing.
Availability may vary by location, so customers interested in finding the collection at a nearby shop or retailer are encouraged to check Krispy Kreme’s location information before visiting.
The partnership arrives at a time when seasonal food launches are becoming increasingly important to consumer brands. Limited-time products can generate excitement by combining familiar products with new flavors, packaging and entertainment properties. In this case, Krispy Kreme and Looney Tunes bring together two recognizable names to create a collection designed around Halloween fun.
A Sweet Way to Celebrate Halloween
With colorful decorations, character-themed designs and a combination of classic and indulgent flavors, Krispy Kreme’s Looney Tunes Halloween Collection offers fans a playful addition to their seasonal celebrations.
Whether purchased individually, shared with friends or brought to a Halloween gathering, the doughnuts provide a sweet way for consumers to embrace the spooky season. The collaboration also gives Looney Tunes fans an opportunity to see some of their favorite animated characters in an entirely new setting.
