The Dunkin’ Donuts baker has died.

Michael Vale, the actor best known for his portrayal of a sleepy-eyed Dunkin’ Donuts baker who said “Time to make the donuts,” has died, his family said on Tuesday. He was 83 years old. Vale’s long-running character, “Fred the Baker,” became a cultural icon. The ad campaign lasted 15 years, until Vale retired in 1997.
