Doughnut pirates, black holes and a Sarcastic ALgorithmic computer (SAL)? A first for Krispy Kreme, Australia’s much loved doughnut brand is taking its customers on a virtual reality journey with the launch of its latest range of doughnuts.

Inspired by the flavours of the cinema, a blockbuster hit for the taste buds needed a blockbuster movie to match. ‘Journey to Glazetopia’, Krispy Kreme’s epic sci-fi inspired Virtual Reality 360 film, celebrates the launch of the limited edition doughnuts.

Co-directed by multi-award winning animation director and composer Evan Viera and Alan Dickson of Yukfoo Animation, the action-packed film features surround sound and 360 vision of Krispy Kreme doughnuts as many have never seen before.

With the sci-fi genre dominating the box office, customers are invited to immerse themselves in a Krispy Kreme galaxy far far away. Guided by SAL, explore the galactic universe of Glazetopia aboard the Starship Original Glazed – O.G.1. Only in Krispy Kreme’s Gooey Galaxy will you be attacked by retro pink doughnut pirates, gaze upon marshmallow moons and fly through a caramel popcorn asteroid belt.
