File this under, I can’t believe someone did not think of this earlier.
Back in April, Sabrina Carpenter released her chart-topping single, Espresso, that became the song of the summer. So, you would think one of the coffee or donut shops would have released a coffee drink with her before now. But they didn’t.
Dunkin’ announced today that they teamed up with the singer for a drink! The Sabrina Carpenter’s Brown Sugar Shakin’ Espresso is freshly hand-shaken behind the counter in a dedicated espresso shaker. The drink brings bold espresso, creamy oat milk, and brown sugar notes in a smooth, frothy sip, ready to energize guests’ daily routine in the new year.
“When we first dreamed up Sabrina’s Brown Sugar Shakin’ Espresso at Dunkin’, it had to be more than another delicious drink on the menu — we wanted to bring some levity to guests’ everyday coffee order,” said Jill McVicar Nelson, Chief Marketing Officer at Dunkin’. “Working with one of America’s most beloved pop stars, Sabrina Carpenter, adds a spirited, fresh energy that perfectly aligns with Dunkin’s love of bold taste and good-natured fun. Through our new ad campaign, we’re showing guests that their new drink order can be both delicious and a wink at embracing life’s lighter side — exactly what Dunkin’ is all about.”
I betcha that Starbucks, Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf, and Krispy Kreme are kicking themselves for not thinking of this earlier.
The Sabrina Carpenter’s Brown Sugar Shakin’ Espresso is available to order starting tomorrow.
Let’s be honest. The best part of the Thanksgiving meal is the pies. What would make them even better? If they were donuts!
Guess what? This year, that is exactly what Krispy Kreme is doing with four new pienuts!
Chocolate Silk Pie Doughnut: an Original Glazed® doughnut dipped in chocolate icing, topped with chocolate buttercreme and chocolate curls.
Lemon Creme Pie Doughnut: an unglazed shell doughnut filled with lemon pie filling, dipped in lemon yellow icing and graham crunch, topped with meringue buttercreme dollop.
Blueberry Crisp Doughnut: an unglazed shell doughnut with blueberry filling, dipped in blueberry icing and streusel topping.
Apple Crumble Doughnut: an unglazed shell doughnut with apple pie filling, topped with pie crust buttercreme and cinnamon cookie crumb topping.
“There’s nothing more meaningful and traditional than spending time around the table with those we love this time of year. Our new Thanksgiving Pies Doughnut Collection was created with that in mind to help bring people together and sweeten the season of sharing joy and gratitude,” said Dave Skena, Global Chief Brand Officer for Krispy Kreme.
The pienuts are available from now until Turkey Day. Which ones are you going to try?
So, the other day, my Citizen app went off and said there was a robbery at the Lowe’s in Burbank. However, I didn’t follow up to see what happened. Now, I know what happened.
Rob Lowe went there to find out, “How many Lowe’s can Rob Lowe rob if Rob Lowe could rob Lowe’s?”
What did he learn? It takes just one!
I hope that with all of that money he just stole, he went to Krispy Kreme and got some Ghostbuster donuts. I mean, he might as well get a reward for answering that age-old question.
It is the Halloween season, and Krispy Kreme is getting into the spirit with Ghostbusters-themed donuts. In honor of the movie’s 40th anniversary, the donut shop created four specialized donuts and a drink, which will be available for a limited time starting today.
Ghostbusters Cookies N’ Creme Doughnut made with OREO® – an Original Glazed® doughnut dipped in chocolate icing, topped with OREO® pieces, a dollop of buttercreme with OREO® and a No Ghost logo candy.
Slimer Doughnut – an unglazed doughnut filled with lemon flavored green filling, dipped in purple and green icing with a Slimer candy.
Ecto-Sprinkled Doughnut – an Original Glazed® doughnut dipped in orange colored icing and sprinkled with neon sprinkles.
Stay Puft Marshmallow Man Doughnut Pull-Apart – Original Glazed® Doughnut Dots with powdered topping, topped with marshmallow flavored buttercreme and a Stay Puft Marshmallow Man candy.
Slimer’s Slime-ade – a signature ectoplasm green.
“Yes, it’s true, these treats are no trick. When it comes to Halloween this year, you know who to call,” said Dave Skena, Global Chief Brand Officer for Krispy Kreme. “Krispy Kreme is the gatekeeper to Halloween sweetness and Sony Pictures Consumer Products is the key master to bring spooky-sweet Ghostbusters doughnuts to our fans this year. You’re welcome, Gozer.”
Thank you, KK. I can’t wait to bite off the Stay Puft Marshmallow Mam’s head. Which one are you looking forward to most?
It still feels like Summer, but that isn’t stopping Krispy Kreme from releasing their Fall menu, which includes three new donuts for the season.
NEW Maple Buttercreme Doughnut – an Original Glazed® doughnut topped with maple flavored buttercreme and fall sprinkles.

Fall isn’t fall without pumpkin spice, so two of the items they introduced last month are staying around a little longer. They are Pumpkin Spice flavored Cake Doughnut, and Pumpkin Spice flavored Latte.
Don’t wait too long to try them because Winter is just around the corner, and these are only around for a limited time.
