Updated 2020! Unfortunately, as of our last review, Krispy Kreme only has black coffee, espresso, tea, and a few prepackaged juices and sodas to offer dairy-free consumers. They use milk in all of their fancy coffee drinks and their doughnuts all contain dairy (dried milk powder). They can’t even be bothered with carrying a dairy-free milk beverage or creamer for their coffee and tea drinks.
I only include Krispy Kreme in our Fast Food listings because we get so many reader inquiries about this chain.
More Details from Krispy Kreme Doughnuts
Ingredient Information: The only animal by-products used in our doughnuts are eggs (whites and yolks) and dairy products (including milk, butter, yogurt, whey, nonfat milk and nonfat whey). We use vegetable shortening (palm, soybean, and/or cottonseed and canola oil) for zero gram of trans fat per one serving of doughnut. All monoglycerides and diglycerides are vegetable based. Enzymes are also present. The lecithin we use is soy-based. We also use wheat in our doughnuts, including bran, germ, gluten, starch and flour.
Allergen Disclaimer: Our facilities produce products with peanuts, tree nuts, soy, milk, eggs, and wheat. We cannot guarantee that any other products are safe to consume for people with any of these allergies.

Are you guys considering making any dairy free donuts? With the demand for these products raising I was just wondering?
Really — a cheery “vegans an vegetarians stay far far away.”? You suck at marketing.
Um, I wasn’t aware that I was supposed to market for Krispy Kreme. I’m providing honest, real information here. If you want straight promotion, I suggest you head to their website for their campaigns. We are not affiliated with any restaurants.
Has Krispy Kreme ever considered making a “wheat/gluten free” and dairy free doughnut?
No idea! You should put in a request.
They used to have dairy free doughnuts back in the 90’s. I was able to have the glazed curlers, but they took them off sometime ago.
My son has a severe whey allergy, & just pulled straight A’s unfortunately won’t be able to indulge. #booKrispyKreme
Definite boo!! But congrats to him on the stellar grades!
Will krispy creme ever make a vegan-friendly doughnut and make it available in the UK? It’s been SO long since i’ve been able to eat anything like this i would REALLY love to try them but unfortunately they’re not suitable.
Krispy Kreme Doughnut Corporation gave me a coupon for a free doughnut, but what use is it if they don’t have vegan doughnuts? They should have just given me a dollar. Now I know why I see so many obese people around town. Gross.
