CANTON, Mass., Aug. 7, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- August is
National Coffee Month, and Dunkin' Donuts is kicking off the month
with some hot news for coffee lovers looking to add a little more
flavor to a sweet summer. Dunkin' Donuts, America's all-day,
everyday stop for coffee and baked goods, today introduced new
French Vanilla and Hazelnut Swirls for coffee beverages.
Dunkin' Donuts also unveiled new Coffee Creme Donuts, the
brand's first donuts made with Dunkin' Donuts' famous Original
Blend Coffee.
A permanent addition to Dunkin' Donuts' menu, new French Vanilla
and Hazelnut Swirls are a sweeter, creamier take on the brand's
most popular coffee flavors. These rich and creamy flavor swirls
offer guests a delicious new way to customize their hot and iced
coffee, lattes or Frozen Coffee Coolatta® to create a sweeter, more
indulgent beverage. Dunkin' Donuts also serves coffee drinkers a
number of other flavor options, including Caramel and Mocha Swirls,
as well as unsweetened and sugar-free flavor shots such as French
Vanilla, Hazelnut, Caramel, Coconut, Toasted Almond and more. All
Dunkin' Donuts flavor shots are part of the brand's DDSMART® menu
of better-for-you items.
"Dunkin' Donuts offers more than 15,000 ways to customize your
coffee, and we're thrilled to expand our lineup with the addition
of the new French Vanilla and Hazelnut Swirls," said Jeff Miller, Dunkin' Brands' Executive Chef and
Vice President of Culinary Innovation. "As the nation's number one
retailer of hot and iced flavored coffee, we are committed to
offering our guests multiple choices to personalize their favorite
coffee beverage, from our full lineup of unsweetened and sugar-free
flavor shots, to our sweet, more indulgent flavor swirls."
Dunkin' Donuts guests can also enjoy French Vanilla and Hazelnut
coffee flavors at home. Both varieties are available at
participating Dunkin' Donuts restaurants in one-pound bags of
packaged coffee for a suggested retail price $8.99, as well as Dunkin' Donuts' K-Cup® packs,
for use with the Keurig® K-Cup® Brewing System, for a

For coffee fans seeking a sweet treat this summer season,
Dunkin' Donuts is introducing a perfect combination of two of
Dunkin' favorites with new Coffee Creme Donuts, the brand's first
donuts made with Dunkin' Donuts' famous Original Blend Coffee. The
donuts are available in two varieties: new Glazed Coffee Creme
Donut features a glazed yeast shell filled with coffee
