Don't say "it's too early for this" when we've already had the first MNSSHP! If Mickey says it's FALL SEASON, then who are we to argue! 
Anyway, Krispy Kreme released their pumpkin spice donut line! Pumpkin glazed original, pumpkin cake donut, pumpkin cheesecake, and pumpkin spice maple pecan.
Our reviews ranked in order of preference!
1) Pumpkin Original Glazed - 10/10. STRAIGHT FIRE. It's just like the beloved OG glazed, but with a subtle little kiss of warm fall spice that makes it dangerously addictive.
2) Pumpkin Cheesecake Swirl - 9/10. A surprise hit! We always tend to feel that the more krispy kreme does to a donut, the worse it gets, but we were pleasantly surprised to discover these were not FILLED donuts. It's the pumpkin glazed donut with swirls of tangy cheesecake frosting on top, which they managed to make not too sweet overall and actually delicious!
3) Pumpkin Cake Donut - 8/10. Not bad by any means, just doesn't quite hold up to the yeasty goodness of the OG. Not nearly as dry as most cake donuts though, it's moist and rich with what we felt was the most 'concentrated' pumpkin flavor of the four.
4) Pumpkin Spice Maple Pecan - 7/10. Just a slight case of doing too much; the texture is great with the added crunch from the pecans, but it's a little too cloyingly sweet overall.
If your family loves fall (and krispy kreme donuts...NEVER dunkin - shots fired!) as much as we do, highly recommend having your own pumpkin donut tasting party
