Even he calls it a business and uses Krispy Kreme’s name as his own...

“Hi everyone, here is the next important update! I am pumped to announce that I will be able to continue the business soon,”

I would agree that if he used the words Krispy Kreme in his business, that would be a trademark violation, but if he was just selling the donuts under a non-trademarked name, then KK could not stop him.

The fact that he had his own business with Krispy Kreme in the title would be a horse of a different color.

They can’t stop him from selling the donuts, but they can stop him from using their name in his business.
