| Krispy Kremes are easier to get in Vancouver |
Fans of Krispy Kreme doughnuts in Metro Vancouver were excited to see it open a second store in a convenient location -- Cambie and Broadway.
The first location, which opened in 2004, is all the way out in Delta, about a 29km drive that would take about an hour and a half.
For many who work and live in Vancouver, this location will be convenient for those who take the Canada Line, or bus along Broadway.

| This box needs some love handles! |
This latest Krispy Kreme location opened just before Christmas and hardcore enthusiasts of the American brand of doughnuts were willing to line up 12 hours before the shop opened at 7am on December 16.
This busy intersection also has a Jollibee across the street, making it, as one person commented on social media, "a deadly combo," with doughnuts and fried chicken steps away from each other.
Yesterday I happened to be in the neighbourhood and wandered to Krispy Kreme to check it out in the afternoon. I was surprised to see the shop is actually quite small, but it turns out the doughnuts are made in Delta and transported over twice daily.
The customer in front of me just bought one original glazed doughnut, while I was admiring all the other flavours: maple glazed, strawberry iced with sprinkles, glazed lemon filled, raspberry cheesecake, and caramel kreme crunch to name a few.
In the end I got three: the original glazed, chocolate ice custard filled, and glazed raspberry filled. They were placed in a box for half a dozen doughnuts and I carefully carried it home on the bus.
As soon as my dad saw the box he got all excited and ready to try them!
Following the recommendation on the box, I microwaved them for eight seconds, though nine or 10 seconds would have been OK too.
The original tasted the same, though if it was fresh, it would have been even better.
I didn't have a chance to try the others because my dad ate the entire chocolate ice custard one, and late ate the raspberry doughnut too!
