While Halloween may be over, White Castle is keeping the sweet treats coming with its new Loaded Sweet Potato Fries. Although not technically a dessert, this indulgent side dish is perfect for those with an insatiable sweet tooth.
The new Loaded Sweet Potato Fries are a limited-edition side dish available at participating White Castle locations this holiday season. The dish itself consists of sweet potato fries topped with a fluffy marshmallow crème, pieces of cinnamon praline pecans and a drizzle of maple syrup. For those who find the sugary sweet side dish a little too decadent, the chain is also offering savory Loaded Fried Green Beans, which consists of fried green beans topped with gravy and crispy onions.
The unusual new side dishes from White Castle demonstrate how fast food chains can go beyond flavors such as gingerbread and peppermint to create innovative new holiday dishes.
