Oh, DD is not playing.
Pumpkin season is approaching. While most us are trying to cling to our final moments summer and block out this thought, cfee chains are always attempting to rush the seasonal transition so they can roll out their popular pumpkin collections.
Dunkin Donuts appears to be the first ones to the pumpkin party this year, as they are already changing signage at eight their US locations on August 14, where they will be fering customers free taste-testers the upcoming pumpkin products (okay, i’ll stop alliterating now). To make a game out this madness, the eight locations will be a surprise. However, they did fer this hint: the initial letter the seven cities the shops are located in combine to form the word “P-U-M-P-K-I-N.” If this puzzle is too much to rack your brain over, then don’t worry. After this first week promotion, the fall items will be available at the rest its stores, starting August 21.
Now, for the big reveal. Get ready. The Dunkin pumpkin menu will feature… pumpkin-flavored cfee (available either hot, iced or frozen), a pumpkin donut, an apple cider donut, an apple cider cake ring tossed in cinnamon sugar, and MUNCHKINS® donut hole treats. The most important item on the seasonal menu will likely be the Cinnamon Sugar Pumpkin Signature Latte, rivaling Starbucks’ chart-topping Pumpkin Spice Latte. DD’s version will be infused with rich cinnamon flavors, topped with whipped cream and a string caramel swirl.
Run and get it.
