Though Panera has not officially announced it, word is that a new Black Forest Ham & Gouda Melt and new Deli Ham Sandwich are coming to the brand's menu this summer.
Both of the new sandwich feature ham as the star menu item. The new Black Forest Ham & Gouda Melt Sandwich features a whopping eight slices of the brand's new signature Black Forest ham, along with four half slices of smoked Gouda cheese, fresh arugula, and a new country mustard, all served on a toasted baguette. On the other hand, the new Deli Ham Sandwich features four slices of new Black Forest ham topped with red onions, emerald greens, vine-ripened tomatoes, salt & pepper, and the new country mustard, all served on Country Rustic Sourdough.
Both of the new sandwiches will be available for MyPanera Rewards members starting June 12, and available to the general public beginning on June 22, 2023.
