Pumpkin, Apple Cider & Maple Oh My! Krispy Kreme’s Fall Donuts Are Coming Very Soon

by Sarah ShebekSeptember 2, 2021

What’s fall donut season without a little Krispy Kreme? Your September just got better with this sweet news! Krispy Kreme will be launching three autumn-inspired donuts starting Monday, including a new Apple Cider glazed option.

There’s one catch: you can only get each donut for one week only! Pumpkin Spice will be available September 6-12. Choose from Original Glazed, Original Filled with cheesecake, or the classic old fashioned Spice Cake donut.

Up next, Apple Cider for September 13-19. You can get an apple cider donut covered in a new Apple Cider glaze, an Original Filled with brown sugar cream, or an old-fashioned cake donut.

Finally, Maple Glazed has entered the chat for September 20-26. You’ll be able to buy a Maple Glazed donut, Original Filled with maple cream, or a Maple Glazed butter cake donut. Pardon us while we drool all over our keyboard.

Fortunately seasonal drinks will be available a bit longer, through late November. Grab Krispy Kreme’s pumpkin spice latte, caramel latte or cinnamon bun latte to caffeinate deliciously! And remember, you can always order online to make life even easier.

Starbucks’ Newest Fall Drink Tastes Like Dunking Apple Pie in a Cup of Coffee

by Sarah ShebekAugust 24, 2021

Move over PSL, there’s a new fall drink in town! The Apple Crisp Macchiato has fallen in a Starbucks cup near you and it sounds absolutely magical. Complete with a caramelized apple drizzle on top!

The latest and greatest fall beverage is available at Starbucks nationwide starting today and we don’t blame you if you’re drooling over your screen. You can expect layered flavors of apple and brown sugar along with the classic base of espresso and steamed milk. The topper is made of apple juice, apple puree, cinnamon and nutmeg, so it also smells amazing. Basically an apple pie in drink form, it’s available hot or iced for whatever weather you experience this fall.

Starbucks says its research and development team taste tested a variety of apple flavored items before landing on the newest macchiato. The combination of the gooey taste of apple crisp and a hot cup of coffee was too good to pass up!

“Creating an ingredient with a spicy baked apple flavor was crucial to be able to bridge an autumn red apple to espresso,” said Raegan Powell, senior manager on the Starbucks research and development team. “Consider how well a delicious slice of warm apple pie pairs with a cup of coffee or how well the combination of Starbucks roasty signature espresso pairs with warm spices such as cinnamon and nutmeg.”

Like the rest of Starbucks’ fall lineup, this one is only available for a limited time. Pairing with a slice of pie or a cider donut is optional (but highly encouraged).

Nestle Toll House Pumpkin Spice Dough & More Fall Flavors Are Coming Soon

by Sarah ShebekJuly 15, 2021

The bad news: fall isn’t here yet. The good news: Nestle Toll House is giving us one more reason to look forward to the upcoming season! Get ready for some fantastic new cookie dough flavors launching for a limited time in August, including everyone’s fave, Pumpkin Spice.

Yup, Pumpkin Spice! Nestle’s getting in on the craze with the release of a new dough that’s pumpkin-spice flavored and mixed with white chocolate morsels. We can’t think of anything better to pair with a latte or cider for the perfect afternoon pick-me-up. Plus you’ll be able to buy a new assortment that features white morsels, mini coffee biscuits and pumpkin-spice flavored chunks!

If you can’t handle any more Pumpkin Spice, you’ll be happy to hear Nestle has a few more tricks up its sleeves. PB&J Cookie Dough riffs off the sandwich classic, with peanut butter cookie dough and strawberry-flavored pieces. Cinnamon Roll Cookie Dough is sugar cookie dough laced with cinnamon and cream cheese pieces. And Trick or Treats Dough is a fudge dough topped with festive Halloween sprinkles!

The new doughs will be available at retailers nationwide starting in August and retail for around $2.99. At that price, you’d better believe we’ll be trying them all!
