Buddy the Elf is a household staple in many American homes as the holidays near — and the brand is celebrating the movie’s big anniversary uniquely.

Krispy Kreme announced it will release limited-edition “Elf” custom donuts to celebrate the movie’s 20th anniversary.

Starting on Friday, Nov. 24, customers can visit Krispy Kreme to try the “Elf”-inspired donuts — namely, The Buddy Snow Globe donut, the Buddy Makes Breakfast donut and the Christmas Lights donut.

All donuts will be available in limited-edition “Elf”-themed dozen donut boxes, according to Krispy Kreme.

The Buddy Snow Globe donut is an original Krispy Kreme glazed donut. It's dipped in sugar-cookie light blue icing and white sprinkles — and topped with powered sugary snow as well as a chocolate “Elf” piece for more decor, the company indicates.
