Little Debbie expands donut lineup with new Chocolate Old Fashioned Donuts

COLLEGEDALE, Tenn. – Riding the wave of one of its most successful product launches in recent years, Little Debbie, America's No. 1 snack cake brand, is thrilled to announce the arrival of Chocolate Old Fashioned Donuts. This new treat follows the massive consumer demand seen after the June 2025 launch of the original Big Pack Old Fashioned Donuts, which quickly became a top-performer in the breakfast and snack categories nationwide.

Building on a Fan-Favorite Legacy

The introduction of the original Old Fashioned Donut last summer proved that fans have a deep hunger for bakery-style classics. Since hitting shelves in June 2025, the original variety has seen exceptional retail performance, consistently selling out as consumers embraced the combination of nostalgic texture and modern convenience.

"We saw an incredible response to the Old Fashioned Donut we introduced last year. We're doubling down on what works and giving both loyalists and new fans an irresistible reason to head back to the store," said Scott Brownlow, Little Debbie Brand manager.

Indulgence in Two Convenient Formats

The Chocolate Old Fashioned Donuts offer a chocolate flavor profile paired with the signature golden-brown ridges and moist, crumbly texture that defines an old-fashioned cake donut. To meet the needs of every snacker, Little Debbie is launching this treat in both bulk and on-the-go formats:

• The Big Pack Carton: Perfect for families, this box contains six generously sized donuts in a stunning retro-inspired package that pays homage to the brand's heritage.
• Single-Serve Offering: For those seeking a quick, indulgent escape, Little Debbie introduces the 3 oz. individually wrapped Chocolate Old Fashioned Donut. This single-serve option combines nostalgic comfort with everyday affordability, making it the perfect companion for a morning coffee or a midday break.

The new Chocolate Old Fashioned Donut features a rich chocolate flavor that perfectly captures the nostalgia of a traditional cake donut, all finished with a sweet, signature glaze. This classic profile offers a timeless appeal, effortlessly bridging the gap between a comforting morning pastry and a decadent afternoon dessert. Whether stocked in the family pantry or grabbed as a quick single-serve treat at a convenience store, these donuts deliver an authentic "hometown bakery" experience with every bite.

Little Debbie Chocolate Old Fashioned Donuts are rolling out now to major retailers, grocery stores, and convenience stores nationwide.
