The Chocolate Hazelnut Kreme Donut is a yeast donut filled with a chocolate hazelnut Kreme, dipped in Nutella and topped with crushed candied hazelnuts, plus a drizzle of both chocolate and white icing.

Despite the low-profile launch, on a personal note, I find the Chocolate Hazelnut Kreme Donut somewhat more appealing on several levels, not the least of which is the fact that it sports a chocolate hazelnut Kreme filling.
