No, no, I didn’t win. But we’ve reached the finals of the Next Dunkin Donut contest, and only one of these 12 AMAZING donuts will be baked nationwide at everyone’s favorite breakfast pastry shop. Here are the finalists (let’s ignore how similar one was to my suggestion…)

“A Nutter One" — A chocolate butter kreme-filled donut with peanut butter icing and chopped Reese’s® Peanut Butter Cups (Carol D’Angio, Palm Beach Gardens, FL) “Bodacious Banana" — A Bananas Foster-filled donut with chocolate icing topped with shredded coconut (Christine Roman, Ellenville, NY) “Chocolate Monkey" — A Bananas Foster-filled donut with chocolate icing topped with Hershey®’s Milk Chocolate shavings (Michelle Ventura, Cranston, RI) “Economic Crunch" — A cake donut with chocolate icing topped with graham cracker crunch and butternut crunch (Michael McNeil, Aliso Viejo, CA) “Frozen Assets" — A chocolate mint Bavarian-filled donut with white icing topped with blue and green sprinkles (Kimberly Brooks, Orlando, FL) “Grandma’s Blueberry Maple Donut" — A blueberry cake donut with maple icing topped with graham cracker crunch (Caitlyn Vandervelde, Coventry, RI) “Mexican Hot Chocolate" — A chocolate cake stick filled with marshmallow and topped with chocolate icing, Hershey®’s Cinnamon shavings and Hershey®’s Vanilla shavings (Jane Boderck, Easton, PA) “Sm’OREO" — A marshmallow-filled donut with chocolate icing topped with OREO® cookie pieces and graham cracker crunch (Laura Sherland, Smithtown, NY) “The Graham Slam" — A marshmallow-filled donut with chocolate icing topped with graham cracker crunch and white sprinkles (Nevrie Dauti, Wayne, NJ) “The King" — A Bananas Foster-filled donut with peanut butter icing and chopped peanuts (James Smith, Mount Vernon, NY) “Toffee For Your Coffee" — A glazed, sour cream cake donut topped with chopped Heath® Bar (Jeff Hager, Hoover, AL) “Tour de France" — A chocolate cake stick with hazelnut kreme glaze (Lindsay Piccotti, Clay, NY)
