You Been Dunkin’ Long? Nice Cap.
So you’ve got a mess of a tray there, coffee commuter. You look like you’re in the mood for a better top. Small innovations for a gigantic industry. Hot coffee’s new top is the “Coffee Top Caddie;” what basically amounts to a new mold for the plastic top that fits on top of your coffee cup. With this innovation, you can fit everything you need for that trip from the counter to your table or the order window to your car.
Do you have any idea how dangerous it is to drink coffee in your car? You must be nuts in the head. Check out this new top for you crazies. Put the creamers and the sugar packets right at the head of things.

plastic not fantastic.
humph says
Yeah i bet you don't buy any foods, soaps, or goods in plastic right? Come on now.

Coffee drinkers need to get a reusable mug & stop getting disposable cups. Period.

What does the world look like from atop that high horse?

You sir, are a genious!

The problem is real and the images look good. However I want to see a prototype tested by real Dunkin Donut employees and customers.
Your design may take a different path and form.
Eric says
Love it!

nice job. good idea. I second a design option to hold a donut or two – although, I think they have donut holes in a cup now…
dustin says
great idea but you’re out of touch with the brand. anyone who actually drinks dunkies knows that cream and sugar come pre-mixed when you order. keep your fancy lids for s-bux, i’ll stick to my new england regulah kid.
Jacob says
I love the design, but does the world really need more convenient throw away cups? Also, stocking the lid fully with every order would just encourage additional waste, for those who do not want 2 creams/2 sugars.

As someone who’s worked at a coffee place for quite some time, I’d have to say this idea is useless. Just put all the side stuff in the third, empty cup spot (see photo 1 ‘Coffe Top Caddy’). If all spots are occupied and you can’t fit eveyrthing into the open space in the middle, then any coffee shop worth their salt will have some sort of paper baggie. Coworkers then take what they need from that. Is that such an ordeal?
think clearer says
whats the point of being able to store something on top of a cup when you’re just gonna pour it in and throw it away anyways?
what if you like more than 2 creams?
2 sugars?
if you use disposable coffee cups in bulk you’re doing it wrong: washable ones are better
no mindful coffee shop would buy these because they do all the work for you or you’re expected to make your coffee taste good before you go anywhere with it.
Cromagnum says
I hope you have already patented this.
My 2 cents: add a closable dispensing hole, so you dont have to remove the lid.
This will go far. Its more convienant and cheap to make.
Coffe-to-go isnt dissapearing soon.
KwangErn says
Nice idea, not amazingly practical though…

good~~

You’ve got a winning idea here. You’ve just aimed it at the wrong demographic. You see, people who drink Dunkin Donuts coffee are almost not complete rubes. They actually enjoy the taste of coffee as it’s kind of supposed to taste. (Sort of)
What you want is the less sophisticated McDonalds/Burger King crowd. The type who stops at one of these joints for coffee will swill any old dirt water. These are the easily amused types who would go ape over these lids on their way to their cubicles and positions in front of the assembly line.
Am I an elitist, condescending jerk? Yes!…but am I wrong?

I’m with Matt. Though I have one question;
After you get home from your hour and a half commute with coffee for the ol’ lady, how pissed is she gonna be that you give her a lukewarm coffee with warm, chunky creamers? I’ll stick to my coffee cup tray, thanks.

Hey just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The words
in your post seem to be running off the screen in Safari.
I’m not sure if this is a format issue or something to do with web browser compatibility but I thought I’d post to let
you know. The design and style look great though!
Hope you get the issue resolved soon. Cheers
Hilario says
An impressive share! I’ve just forwarded this onto a colleague who had been conducting a little research on this. And he actually bought me breakfast due to the fact that I discovered it for him… lol. So let me reword this…. Thank YOU for the meal!! But yeah, thanks for spending some time to discuss this issue here on your web page.
