This fall, [Tastykake](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/valentines-day-mini-donuts) is welcoming classic autumnal flavors with the launch of new Caramel Apple Mini Donuts and the return of the fan-favorite Pumpkin Spice Mini Donuts.

No fall is complete without two classic flavors: pumpkin and apples. And with its Fall 2020 Mini Donuts lineup, Tasykake has both of those bases covered. The new Caramel Apple Mini Donuts consist of miniature apple-flavored donuts finished with a sweet caramel crumble coating. As for the Pumpkin Spice Mini Donuts, the mini pumpkin-flavored donuts are topped with a simple cinnamon seasoning. Both of these Mini Donuts varieties are available in both single-serve and in multi-packs, and can be currently be found at grocery and convenience retailers across the U.S..
