25Traditional Cake
Krispy KremeComing in last place: The traditional cake donut. It's just too plain and dry, though maybe if you get one right off the press it's a little better. As one editor put it, "It's like pound cake that's been left out too long."
24New York Cheesecake
Krispy KremeDisclaimer: We thought this was Key Lime Pie. It was not. Regardless, no one liked this tart, cream-filled donut besides Sam, who also likes Nickelback.

23Glazed With Kreme Filling
Krispy KremeFor some reason, Kreme filling tastes odd inside a glazed donut. Powdered donuts we can get on board with, but more on that later.
22Chocolate Iced With Kreme Filling
Krispy KremeThere's a very important distinction that separates the Kreme filling (Krispy Kreme was apparently way ahead of the Kardashians) and custard. Few people were a fan of this one, and compared the inside to not-sweet-enough whipped cream.

21Chocolate Chip Cookie
Krispy KremeYou'd think this Chips Ahoy-topped donut would be a favorite, but according to Delishers, the donut to chocolate ratio was off, and the cookies and cream filling was way too sweet. People gladly ate the cookies off the top, though.
20Cinnamon Apple Filled
Krispy KremeI wanted this to be a winner, but the filling was way too gelatin-like. One editor wanted it to be sweeter, while another thought it had a weird aftertaste. Overall, not a winner.

19Glazed Lemon Filled
Krispy KremeAnother surprising letdown, the lemon filling just tastes off inside a glazed donut. Some wished the inside would be creamier and more like a curd, and the general consensus was it needs a stronger lemon flavor.
18Oreo Cookies and Kreme
Krispy KremeHow can you go wrong with Oreos? Apparently by making it "sickeningly sweet." Sam redeems herself here: "I get enough Oreo from the crumble on top and would have rather just had pureness."

17Powdered Cake
Krispy KremeIt's fine. You're not mad at it. But like, would you order it yourself? Probably not. This is the "there's a few leftover donuts from this morning's meeting and I need something sweet" donut.
16Chocolate Iced Cake
Krispy KremeWhile the chocolate icing gives it more flavor than its plain counterpart, and more points than the powdered sugar-covered one, it still earned a "meh" rating. It reminds one editor of the eclipse donut, with its ganache-like glaze, without being quite as flavorful.

15Apple Fritter
Krispy KremeThis donut is thick, doughy, and equal parts apple flavored and cinnamon-y. It's almost in a different category than the other donuts, but as far as flavor, it's solidly in the middle.
14Strawberry Iced
Krispy KremeDespite being Homer's favorite, these were thought to be too medicinal tasting, as well as "a thousand times sweeter than you want it to be."

13Strawberry Iced With Sprinkles
Krispy KremeFully the same as above, but it has sprinkles, so it gets an automatic boost.
12Dulce de Leche
Krispy KremeAlright, on to the ones Delish actually liked. This powder donut has dulce de leche filling, which was creamy and not overly sweet. The one complaint: not enough filling.

11Glazed Cruller
Krispy KremeIt might be plain, but this cake donut take the traditional lightyears ahead with Krispy Kreme's famous glaze. Pro tip: Dip it in coffee for an even better experience.
10Glazed Sour Cream
Krispy KremePeople were mostly surprised that Krispy Kreme had this donut, and while the taste was subtle, it was pretty enjoyable. Testers found it more moist (sorry) than the traditional cake flavor too.

9Glazed Raspberry
Krispy KremeCan't go wrong with a classic. Krispy Kreme's glazed raspberry filled was a favorite for many, minus those who don't like jelly, for obvious reasons. One editor did call for a better distribution of jelly, which is fair.
8Chocolate Iced Raspberry Filled
Krispy KremeWhat could improve on the glazed raspberry? A layer of chocolatey glazed goodness, of course. We could do without the swirl on top, but all in all, it's a solid donut.

7Cake Batter
Krispy KremePersonally I thought this was even sweeter than the Chips Ahoy, but a lot of other editors were into it. The filling tastes like actual cake batter, and the sprinkles don't hurt.
6Chocolate Iced With Custard Filling
Krispy KremeLet's circle back to the filling issue: While few people were into the Kreme filling, both in the powdered and glazed donuts, custard filling was a winner. This Boston Cream-like donut is a go-to for a handful of Delishers.
