Hostess introduces caffeinated doughnuts
Doughnuts are available in two coffee-inspired flavors.
Hostess Brands is rolling out caffeinated Hostess Boost Jumbo Donettes in two flavors – Chocolate Mocha and Caramel Macchiato.
Each doughnut contains slightly less caffeine (50-70 milligrams) than one cup of coffee.
“For adults who are increasingly looking for alternative sources of caffeine, our new Hostess Boost Jumbo Donettes offer a tasty, energy-boosting, grab-and-go way to jumpstart the day,” said Christopher Balach, general manager of Hostess Brands, LLC.
Three times bigger than the original Hostess Donettes mini donuts, Hostess Boost Jumbo Donettes are caffeinated with coffee bean extract and are lightly glazed. The Chocolate Mocha variety combines the flavors of chocolate and espresso coffee, while the Caramel Macchiato variety combines caramel and espresso coffee flavors. Both varieties come in a 2.5-oz. single-serve package at a suggested retail price of $2.49.
