>> Why the name Krispy Kreme? <<

It seems like no one at the KKD knows about it either.
This is the response I got from KKD.

**********

Thanks for your email You're going to think this is a bit strange, but
we
really don't know where the name and spelling for Krispy Kreme came
from.
In 1933 Ishmael Armstrong purchased a doughnut shop, from Joe LeBeau of
Paducah, KY. Along with the store he acquired the name Krispy Kreme
and
the secret recipe for our yeast-raised doughnuts. Beyond that, we
don't
know anything more about the name.

Thanks for your interest in Krispy Kreme.
