Here is your first look inside Krispy Kreme's first Glasgow store.
The famous American firm has turned the former Clydebuilt Scottish Maritime Museum at Braehead into a giant doughnut restaurant and is due to open its doors and drive-thru to the public on December 2 at 7am.
The premium doughnut retailer has released concept drawings of what will be the biggest Krispy Kreme store in the United Kingdom ahead of the opening.
The iconic Krispy Kreme Hotlight sign will light up when the doughnut theatre is making up to 3000 doughnuts per hour. It takes 1½ hours to create one of their 16 varieties of doughnuts from start to finish. The skilled product teams hand-dip the doughnuts, sprinkle on the toppings and even pipe the decorative finishes ensuring each doughnut is unique and tastes just right.
The store will not only have its own doughnut theatre, but also a large and comfortable seating area for over 50 customers to enjoy their freshly made Krispy Kreme doughnuts, piping hot coffee and delicious Kreme shakes.
Judith Denby, Chief Marketing Officer at Krispy Kreme, said: “With only a week to go until the opening of our store at intu Braehead we are really excited to share the Hotlight experience with our Scottish fans.”
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
