McDonald's fans are rejoicing at the return of a beloved breakfast item

Mcdonald's has announced the debut of new grab-to-go menu items, with fans buzzing over the return of an all-time breakfast favourite.

The fast-food giant announced that the beloved Breakfast Wrap will be making a comeback after a three-year hiatus.


Customers will be able to experience the tortilla-based meal “like never before”. The new and improved version will now come with two free-range round eggs, which were previously folded.

The cult breakfast item was a hit when it was first launched in 2020, leaving fans disappointed when it was subsequently removed. Fans of the wrap sent a letter to the retailer demanding its return.

The highly anticipated McSpicy burger will also feature on new menus the brand launches a collaboration with the hot sauce manufacturer Frank’s Redhot.

The latest addition will be served with lettuce, Emmental cheese, jalapenos, onions, and Frank’s RedHot Mayo, in a sesame seed bun.

Customers will find the burger at McDonald’s branches in the United Kingdom and Ireland for a limited time. It will sold on its own for £5.59 or as a meal for £7.29.

Due to the limited edition status of the latest McSpicy burger, it will only be available for six weeks while stocks last.

Other novel items on the menu will include the Raspberry and White Chocolate Pie, and KitKat Ruby Chocolate McFlurry, and KitKat Milk Chocolate McFlurry.

“Just seen the new McDonald’s menu and I’m fully prepared to clog my arteries,” wrote one user, as another exclaimed: “THE BREAKFAST WRAP. FINAAAAAALLLLY!!!!” [SIC]

Another user wrote: “Big tasty with bacon. Raspberry and white chocolate pie. Breakfast wrap. What a time to be alive.”

Others who had missed out on the Breakfast Wrap when it was last available joined in on the hype. “I really never had the breakfast wraps, looks tasty," wrote one person.

“Raspberry white chocolate pie looks good,” wrote another commentator.

“This collaboration with Frank’s RedHot gave us such an exciting opportunity to build on an already iconic product and create something genuinely spicy but also delicious that we know both McDonald’s and Frank’s RedHot customers will love. We’re really looking forward to seeing the reaction.”
