I got these yesterday. They're good, but I'd prefer the donut without the marshmallow creme. This is good because I was worried I'd be craving them for years long after they stop making them, not a concern now. If you take the Stay Puft hat off, you can see that the donut shape/mold that they use to make it as actually a pumpkin.

When americans say jelly filled, it's the same as saying strawberry/raspberry jam filled right?

For some reason I've always thought it meant the doughnuts were literally filled with jelly.

I don't think they can legally use the term "jam" or "jelly" since it's just HFCS with artificial color/sweetners

Notice how it's "jam-packed"

Dude, I would absolutely buy that. If Ghostbusters donuts are selling out already, imagine the fever pitch for Ecto Cooler. I'd buy a 50 gallon drum, we all know Hi-C doesn't go bad.

You don't want to tangle with the CFR. It's best left as "filling!"

Nice. I wish I had one close by. The nearest is in Scranton, PA and not about to make that drive for some donuts.

My wife picked these up for me so I can have some tomorrow morning. Might try it out tonight. But I'm afraid the sugar won't let me sleep :p

Yup. Haha.

I kinda don't like it? Too sugary. I can only eat one per snack session, which is probably a good thing

yeah, I bought 6 and had to eat 5, my wife ate the other 1. they're not bad but I'd prefer them without the marshmallow filling; it pushed it just a little over the top. the filling was also prone to running, so it'd drip down my hand and there was 1 occasion where it got around my face and must've looked really bad, lol

Went to buy some and they had sold out of the final batch of Stay Puft almost instantly.
So got a single Ghostbusters logo doughnut and the Ghostbusters tub of doughnut holes(not bad at $5 imo)

Ghostbusters doughnut was actually great until the last bite which was a huge glob of cold marshmallow cream.
Would have been much better warm but sill really good.

The icing itself would have ridiculous amount of sugars. Brr, I'm shivering just thinking about it. Then you add the jelly and it's just.....

If you do eat these things, take off the candy logo on top. It kills the entire vibe of the donut. Just pure sugar.

Otherwise, these are amazing. I tried one for the first time yesterday - so good.

Had a few of these last week. I thought the GB logo and StayPuft had were like soft, gummi candies and instead they were crunchy hard blocks of sugar, which was a bit disappointing.

The marshmallow filling however was amazing. So much better than regular creme filling.

It's too bad the closest KK is 90 mins away. I just watched Ghostbusters with my kids for the first time. They're 7/6 years old. They both loved the movie.
