What Krispy Kreme UK says

Krispy Kreme UK's nutritional and allergen page states: "We consider our products to be suitable for anyone who follows a Halal diet, however we are not Halal certified." It makes the same kind of statement for a Kosher diet.

You may see halal wording on some retailer listings or boxes. The company's own page says it is not certified, so treat that statement as the current position and ask the company if you need a certificate.
