After numerous customer requests, Starbucks has officially made the wildly popular apple croissant a permanent menu item. The buttery, cinnamon-filled treat, previously available only seasonally, often sold out by mid-morning. Fans can now enjoy this delicious pastry year-round, though an early visit is still recommended.
Starbucks’ Beloved Apple Croissant Moves from Seasonal to Permanent Menu, Thanks to High Demand
When many of us arrive at Starbucks for breakfast, the coveted apple croissant is often just a memory, with only a sign and a few crumbs left on the tray in the display case. This elusive, golden brown, cinnamon-filled treat usually vanishes before 11 a.m., snapped up by early risers. The struggle is real. At under 300 calories, it’s no wonder the apple croissant became a fan favorite. Fortunately, Starbucks heard the call. Thanks to many customer requests, this fall favorite has officially moved from the seasonal menu to the permanent one. Yes, it's true—the apple croissant is here to stay.
To understand its popularity, a Starbucks employee shared last year that distribution centers couldn’t keep up with the high demand for apple croissants. Now that it’s a permanent fixture, getting one still requires an early start, but your chances have improved. If you do happen to miss out, don’t worry—Starbucks’ 2024 fall menu is packed with other delicious treats.
Starbucks Expands Fall Menu with Apple-Inspired Drinks and New Pastries Alongside Fan-Favorite Croissant
Alongside new treats, Starbucks has also introduced several new fall drinks. The sampled lineup, one of the latest beverages, even gives the Pumpkin Spice Latte a run for its money. If you're craving more apple-inspired options, Starbucks has plenty in drink form. The Iced Apple Crisp Nondairy Cream Chai, Apple Crisp Oat Macchiato, Iced Caramel Apple Cream Latte, and the Iced Honey Apple Almond Milk Flat White all feature apple flavors, with some even boasting an apple cold foam upgrade. It's a lot of apples, but it's a delight for fans of the flavor.
If you're after a pastry instead, the new Raccoon Cake Pop with vanilla cake and buttercream dipped in chocolate icing or the Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffin topped with spiced pepitas might satisfy your sweet tooth. And next time, set your alarm a little earlier to snag that beloved apple croissant before it's gone!
