Shipley also offers a wide variety of fresh iced, filled and cake do-nuts, plus savory kolaches, hot and cold brew coffee and more.

"Shipley's legacy was built on our fresh glazed do-nuts, and they are still our most popular variety to this day," said Shipley Do-Nuts CMO Donna Josephson. "We can't think of a more delicious way to celebrate National Donut Day than by rewarding our fans and new guests with the do-nut that started it all."

Guests can still enjoy Shipley's limited-time COOKIES N' DREAM do-nuts made with OREO® Cookie Pieces, available through June 30 or while supplies last.

Founded in 1936, Houston-based Shipley Do-Nuts is one of the nation's oldest and largest do-nut brands, with more than 350 company-owned and franchised restaurants across 12 states, serving up its famous do-nuts, coffee and kolaches to generations of guests.
