Dunkin' Donuts will introduce their U.S. customers to a brand new concoction - a croissant donut hybrid! Isn't that a cronut? You may ask. But no! According to the Massachusetts-born, donut chain, their offering is a completely different product from that other pastry hybrid.
For starters, Dunkin' Donuts will offer sugar glazed croissant donuts, the same used on their Glazed Donut to give it a similar taste. The original cronuts, created by Dominique Ansel Bakery in New York, are cream filled. Although Dunkin' Donuts does not dismiss the idea of introducing more varieties, including cream or jelly filled ones, in the future.
According to the company's president of global marketing, John Costello, Dunkin's croissant donuts are not the same as the ones popularized beginning in May 2013 in the Big Apple at all.
