Dunkin’s Spider Donut is the internet’s newest ‘diva’
It seems to have taken inspiration from another purple pal — Grimace.
A new social media star has entered the chat — and it has frosting for eyes and legs.
On Oct. 21, Dunkin’ introduced a new character on X, Instagram and TikTok: the Spider Donut.
The specialty treat from its Halloween menu is a doughnut with purple frosting, topped with a glazed chocolate Munchkins Donut Hole Treat, chocolate drizzle spider legs and white frosting eyes — and it’s now complete with a personality.
“come here,” beckons the Spider Donut in its first Instagram post. A photo gallery features the doughnut slowly approaching the viewer as it makes coy comments and finally asserts its dominance in the last slide: “im in charge now.”
The Spider Donut has quickly established itself as both confident and coquettish as it searches for someone to hold on to this cuffing season.
