Hot on the heels of its new Kit Kat Coolatta and Hershey's Cookies 'N' Creme Donut, it seems that [Dunkin](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hash-brown-brisket-scramble-bowl) is also looking to make breakfast a little sweeter with the [Sweet](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/summer-of-sandwiches-menu) BBQ Bacon Breakfast Sandwich.

Dunkin's new Sweet BBQ Bacon Breakfast Sandwich consists of a [buttery, freshly made croissant](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/croissant-bacon-egg-cheese) split open and filled with a fluffy egg, cheese, and strips of bacon coated in Sweet BBQ seasoning. The hearty sandwich offers the perfect blend of sweet and savory flavors for those who like to start their day with a little bit of everything. The sandwich is also available as Wake-Up Wrap served in a soft flour tortilla for those eschew pastries in the AM.
