By customer request, Wendy’s is introducing a strawberry-flavored Frosty for the summer.
On Monday, the fast-food chain detailed it as a “summer spin” on their iconic frozen treat.
“We’re always listening to our fans, and as the most-requested item, it was a no-brainer for us to bring the Strawberry Frosty to the menu this season,” said Carl Loredo, Wendy’s Chief Marketing Officer. “While some of our competitors are still trying to get their ice cream machines to work, fans can dip into this new strawberry treat all summer long at Wendy’s.”
Last year, strawberry was added to Wendy’s menus in Canada, and it quickly became one of their “most talked about items.”
The flavor was tested out in multiple cities throughout the US, where it proved to be so popular that they “ran out of product halfway through the program because people loved it so much,” Loredo said.
According to CNN, this is only the second new Frosty flavor in the previous 16 years. For its 50th birthday in 2019, the firm released a limited-edition Frosty-flavored birthday cake. Vanilla had previously been added to the menu in 2006.
The Strawberry Frosty is only available for a short time, but Wendy’s hasn’t specified how long it will be available.
