Venice? Rome? Amalfi? If your winter mood board involves an Aperol Spritz in hand and your feet dangling off the Amalfi Coast, Krispy Kreme has just dropped the next best thing.

The cult favourite doughnut brand has launched its new Passport to Italy Collection, and it’s bringing La Dolce Vita straight to your nearest box of treats.

The new Passport to Italy collection will have you saying ‘This Is What Dreams Are Made Of’ faster than a Vespa ride around the Colosseum.

Available from today (30 July) until 18 August, this limited-edition range includes three dreamy Italian dessert-inspired doughnuts: Limone Delight, Tiramisu Inspired, and Cannoli Inspired.

Whether you’re stuck at your desk scrolling through Italian travel reels or actually planning your next European escape, these sweets are the closest thing to licking gelato off your fingers in Venice.

Each flavour pays homage to a beloved classic, without the jet lag or passport stamps.

  • Tiramisu Inspired Doughnut: A pillowy shell doughnut filled with rich tiramisu Kreme, topped with a sweet Kreme swirl and a generous dusting of cocoa. It’s basically dessert inside dessert.
  • Cannoli Inspired Doughnut: A soft, unglazed ring dipped halfway in chocolate and crunchy cannoli pieces, finished with a fluffy cannoli buttercream and dusting of icing sugar. It’s giving pastry meets doughnut, in the best way possible.
  • Limone Delight Doughnut: Zingy and sweet, this lemon Kreme-filled shell is dipped in citrus icing and crowned with candied lemon pieces for the perfect tart-sweet combo.

Let’s be honest, social media right now is one giant montage of Positano sunsets and Capri swimsuits, so it’s only fair that Krispy Kreme let us have our own bite of the Italian summer.

The flavours were inspired by the seasonal trend of Aussie travellers flocking to Europe, and now our taste buds can join in too.

The good news is you can pick up these doughnuts individually at any Krispy Kreme store, or order them for delivery or pickup through the website.

The even better news is if you miss them in-store, you’ve got until 26 August to grab them at select Coles, Woolworths, BP and 7-Eleven stores around the country.

But don’t sleep on them, these flavour bombs are limited-edition and once they’re gone, they’re gone.

Prego, Krispy Kreme. We didn’t know we needed a dessert-based Roman holiday, but we’re absolutely here for it.
