Dunkin’ is Phasing Out Some Classic Donuts Across Maine Locations

For many people throughout Maine, a trip to Dunkin' every day is as routine as taking a shower or putting on pants.

In its nearly 60-year history of operating in Maine, Dunkin' has always had a handful of items remain true on their menu.

Despite dropping it from their name, donuts have always been a large part of what Dunkin' serves up. So much so, that some specific varieties of donuts have become generational family favorites.

But times are always changing. And so are the donuts at Dunkin'.

Dunkin' Begins to Phase Out Some Longstanding Donut Flavors

If you use the Dunkin' app to order ahead, you've probably already noticed that a few things have disappeared off the menu.

All across Maine, a pair of Dunkin's oldest donut offerings are gone. That would be the chocolate glazed stick and the butternut donut.

Nearly a decade ago, Dunkin' cleansed the chocolate butternut donut off their menus across New England.

Other offerings have also disappeared like the apple fritter as well as the coconut donut and more.

Individual Locations in Maine May Still Offer The Donuts In-House

For the last few weeks, hardcore Dunkin' lovers have been taking to social media to voice their displeasure over the bakery changes.

While some of these longstanding classic donut flavors are gone off the app, individual Dunkin' locations throughout Maine may still carry them in-house.

Dunkin' allows their franchisees to continue certain donut flavors if they're especially popular in a given town or region. So the chocolate glazed stick or butternut donut may live on in your town. You'll just have walk inside a Dunkin' to get it.
