Every year, the release of pumpkin spice treats has become a major event for food and beverage chains in the United States, helping to usher in the new season and reflecting consumer demands, along with seasonal marketing strategies.

It's last call for summer as fall favorites at Starbucks — including the Pumpkin Spice Latte — are set to make a return.

Dunkin's 2025 fall menu was released Aug. 20 and includes new items, such as an iced pumpkin loaf and a Cereal N' Milk Latte, plus new Chipotle hash browns, a berry refresher, bacon and more.
