Dunkin' Donuts' unique cooking ovens, using patented technologies, deliver the "Oven-Toasted" result.

Dunkin' Donuts' Oven-Toasting process enhances the taste and quality of Dunkin' Donuts' menu, cooking breakfast sandwiches evenly and thoroughly, sealing in flavor, caramelizing meats, creating a fluffier egg and crisping the bread.

Flatbread Sandwiches, easy to hold and eat. Options include hot and crispy favorites such as Ham & Cheese, Turkey Cheddar & Bacon, Grilled Cheese and now the new Chicken Parmesan Flatbread Sandwich.
