The sandwich features a cardamon bun topped with pearl sugar pieces, and boasts a patty made out of brownie, a layer of marzipan cream and a final topping of whipped cream. These ingredients combine to create a true burger-inspired sandwich that offers ample sweetness for patrons to enjoy.
The Burger King Denmark Semla Burger comes as part of a growing number of QSR menu items that respond to consumer lifestyles and offer a way to still enjoy a visit to their nearest location when partaking in such practices.
