For the holiday season, Dunkin’ Donuts has new crème brulée-flavored macchiatos, lattes, and coffees that feature the rich and creamy taste of the dessert with a deep, caramelized sugar finish.

Dunkin’ Donuts is also offering two new donuts.

COMING SOON: Limited Edition Dunkin’ Donuts Vanilla Latte and Chocolate Mocha Pop-Tarts

Dunkin Donuts Pop Tarts

Next year, we’re getting coffee-flavored Pop-Tarts! Take that, Toaster Strudel!

Kellogg’s has teamed up with Dunkin’ Donuts to offer Frosted Vanilla Latte and Frosted Chocolate Mocha Pop-Tarts. I know what you’re thinking, “Isn’t ‘chocolate mocha’ redundant?” Let’s not focus on that. Instead, let’s focus on how awesome this collaboration is. It’s unknown whether or not they’re caffeinated, but since Pop-Tarts are marketed towards kids, I’m going to bet they’re not. It’s also unknown when exactly they’ll be hitting shelves.

If these Pop-Tarts partnerships are going to be an annual thing, I wonder what we’ll see in 2018. Maybe Baskin-Robbins Pop-Tarts since Dunkin’ Donuts is its sister chain?
