Dunkin’s Fall Menu Drops with 5 New Items—Including a Starbucks Copycat

Autumn has officially arrived at Dunkin’, and the coffee giant is making waves with its 2025 fall menu, which launched nationwide on August 20. This year’s seasonal lineup includes five brand-new items that blend nostalgia, bold flavors, and a dash of competitive flair—most notably, a direct challenge to Starbucks’ beloved pumpkin loaf. With cooler temperatures sweeping across the Northeast, Dunkin’ is seizing the moment to roll out its most ambitious fall offerings yet.

Returning to the menu is the fan-favorite Pumpkin Spice Signature Latte, available hot or iced. But the real buzz surrounds the five new additions that elevate Dunkin’s fall game to a whole new level. From cereal milk-inspired lattes to chipotle-loaded breakfast bites, the chain is clearly aiming to satisfy both sweet and savory cravings while tapping into seasonal comfort.

🍂 The 5 New Fall Items

1. Cereal 'N Milk Latte
Perhaps the most talked-about item is the new Cereal 'N Milk Latte, which can be ordered hot or iced. Inspired by the nostalgic taste of marshmallow-flavored cereal milk, this drink combines espresso with creamy, sweet cereal milk for a flavor that’s both indulgent and whimsical. It’s a nod to childhood breakfasts and a bold move that positions Dunkin’ as a playful innovator in the coffee space.

2. Mixed Berry Daydream Refresher
Building on its partnership with pop star Sabrina Carpenter, Dunkin’ adds the Mixed Berry Daydream Refresher to its lineup. Made with oatmilk and topped with cold foam, this vibrant drink joins the existing Strawberry and Mango Daydream Refreshers. It’s fruity, creamy, and designed to appeal to fans of Carpenter’s dreamy aesthetic and Gen Z’s love for colorful, Instagram-worthy beverages.

3. Iced Pumpkin Loaf
In what many are calling a direct challenge to Starbucks’ iconic pumpkin loaf, Dunkin’ introduces the Iced Pumpkin Loaf. This new bakery item features a swirl of warm, spiced pumpkin cake and vanilla cake, topped with a rich cream cheese frosting. It’s moist, flavorful, and visually stunning—perfect for pairing with a PSL or the new cereal latte. The move signals Dunkin’s intent to compete head-to-head in the fall bakery wars.

4. Kreme Delight Donut
For donut lovers, the Kreme Delight Donut is a decadent treat filled with vanilla buttercream and topped with chocolate frosting and more buttercream. It’s a sweet explosion that complements the fall drink menu and adds a luxurious twist to Dunkin’s classic donut offerings.

5. Chipotle Loaded Hash Browns
On the savory side, Dunkin’ debuts Chipotle Loaded Hash Browns, a spicy upgrade to its popular Loaded Hash Browns. These crispy potato bites are topped with smoky chipotle sauce and bacon, offering a bold flavor profile that’s perfect for breakfast or a midday snack. It’s a hearty addition that rounds out the menu and caters to those seeking a more substantial bite.

🎃 Pumpkin Season Arrives Early

Dunkin’ has beaten Starbucks to the punch this year, launching its fall menu a full six days ahead of its rival’s August 26 release. The timing couldn’t be better—New York City and other parts of the Northeast have experienced a sudden drop in humidity and temperature, creating the perfect backdrop for pumpkin spice season. Dunkin’ also moved up its release date compared to last year, when the fall menu launched on August 28.
