McDonald's UK Has Launched a Smaller-Sized Mini McFlurry
Katherine Pendrill — June 26, 2018 — Lifestyle
In an effort to help consumers enjoy fast food without overindulging, McDonald's UK has begun offering a new Mini McFlurry. While the new treat contains all the same components as a regular-sized McFlurry, the smaller size is perfectly portioned for snacking or a light dessert.
The Mini McFlurry is a new size option available at McDonald's locations across the UK until August 7th. Like the bigger versions of the dessert, the tiny dish is available in Cadbury Dairy Milk, Oreo, and Cadbury Crunchie flavors. Consumers can also enjoy two tasty new summer options, which include Flake Chocolate and Flake Raspberry.
With consumers becoming increasingly conscious about serving sizes, the new Mini McFlurry demonstrates how restaurants are adapting oversized portions.
