Caffè Nero customers can try new sweet treats, coffees and spritzes, available to buy now.
The new menu will include indulgent desserts and non-alcoholic spritzes with a real focus on classic Italian flavours.
The menu includes a Maritozzi Bun consisting of soft sourdough brioche infused with lemon and orange notes, filled with a sweetened cream - perfect to pair with a coffee in the morning.
For more Mediterranean flavours, customers can pick up a slice of Sicilian Lemon Meringue Cheesecake, made with a tier of Sicilian lemon curd and topped with fluffy Italian meringue.

CEO at Caffè Nero UK Will Stratton-Morris said: “The launch of our Italian-inspired menu really does signal the launch of summer in the UK.
“It provides the same premium experience as our coffee, and as temperatures finally rise, we’re looking forward to giving customers a summer dining experience that feels fresh, yet classically ‘Nero'.
"You won’t believe how light and delicious the Maritozzi Bun is, and our drinks range infuses our much-loved classic drinks with a burst of summer.
"The silky texture of the Velvet Iced Americanos and the Italian Spritzes perfectly match the summer mood and offer relief under the scorching sun.
"The drinks build on the vast success and popularity of our coffee-over-ice range; we’ve seen a huge rise in customers opting for iced drinks all year round, but in summer especially, they provide that much-needed hit of refreshment, flying us to sunnier climes without boarding a plane.”
This follows a new menu launched by Waitrose which featured 11 new food items.
