The next time you head to Krispy Kreme, you might notice your favorite donut is gone — or find a new favorite — because the chain is changing up its menu in a big way. But if your go-to is those hot, classic glazed donuts, don’t worry, because they’re not going anywhere. 

Right now, the everyday Krispy Kreme full-size donut menu includes 10 items. These donuts are available every day. Starting today, the chain is increasing the number of donuts on its everyday menu to 16, so you’ll have more to choose from on a daily basis. 

They’re doing that by adding nine new donuts to the menu: five everyday flavors, and four flavors that will rotate seasonally. But if you’re thinking, hey, that math doesn’t add up to 16, you’re right. Krispy Kreme is also sending three flavors to the big donut graveyard in the sky. Here’s what to know about the new Krispy Kreme flavors—and which are leaving.

Presumably, the three flavors leaving the Krispy Kreme menu were not big sellers, but we know one was a favorite of ours, so this is a bummer. Here they are:

  • Blueberry Cake
  • Lemon filled
  • Cake Batter

R.I.P. blueberry. But there is some hope that these won’t be gone forever. In a press release, Krispy Kreme assures us, “Fret not, these doughnuts could return in the future.”
