Frequently asked
Does Krispy Kreme Australia use seed oils?
Based on our menu research, Krispy Kreme Australia cooks with: high-oleic sunflower and palm oil. Across the 34 menu items we analyzed, it averages 1.9g estimated PUFA per item, earning a seed-oil grade of A (Low Risk).
What oil does Krispy Kreme Australia cook with?
Our research indicates: the chain's current shortening statement reads "Palm Oil, Hydrogenated Canola Oil, High Oleic Sunflower Oil" - palm plus two deliberately low-PUFA fats - and every doughnut is deep-fried in it. Refined 2026-09-18 from "a vegetable shortening blend of palm and canola oil": the canola in that blend is hydrogenated and the sunflower is high-oleic, so the doughnuts model as palm plus hydrogenated canola rather than palm plus ordinary canola. Preparation can vary by location, so treat PUFA numbers as estimates.

What are seed oils?
Seed oils — canola, soybean, sunflower, corn, and similar vegetable oils — are extracted from seeds using high heat and chemical solvents. They are very high in polyunsaturated fats (PUFAs), which are unstable at cooking temperatures and can oxidize easily. Many health-conscious eaters choose to minimize seed oils and prefer foods cooked in beef tallow, butter, coconut oil, or olive oil instead. This page shows estimated PUFA grams per menu item to help you make more informed choices. These are estimates — actual values vary by preparation and location. New to the topic?
