A couple of nights ago, when I was standing in line at a Hartford, Connecticut Burger King restaurant, I happened to notice, for the first time, a menu item called the Fudge Sundae. Since it was a hot and humid evening, the idea of eating an ice cream sundae seemed very appealing. Just as appealing was the listed price for this sundae; $1. After ordering a Whopper Junior and a Buck Double cheeseburger, I also ordered one of the Fudge Sundaes and I’m very glad that I did so.
The Fudge Sundae available at Burger King restaurants is a very basic, yet delicious ice cream sundae that features very tasty vanilla ice cream and real chocolate fudge. With a cost of only $1, this item is an un – abashed bargain that can’t be beat. Presented here, in an effort to assist the consumer, is one food writer’s product review of Burger King’s $1 Fudge Sundae.
Size
The first thing I noticed about the Fudge Sundae from Burger King was its size. My initial thought when I saw the sundae, was that it seemed fairly small, but I had to remind myself that its cost was only $1. When I began eating the Burger King Fudge Sundae, I thought to myself “Where’s the chocolate fudge ?”. Then, a couple of spoonfuls later, I encountered a large amount of the chocolate fudge. Simultaneously, I looked at the outside of the container and could see lots of the chocolate fudge concentrated near the bottom of the container.
The more of the sundae that I ate, the more chocolate fudge I encountered. In fact, by the time I got near the bottom of the container, the white vanilla ice cream turned into more of a light – brown colored variety of ice cream, due to all of the chocolate fudge that had intermingled with it. As I was finishing the sundae, I thought about how much ice cream really was contained in the plastic cup. For only $1, this is a good – sized dessert item. In physical size, the Burger King Fudge Sundae measures approximately 3.5″ x 3″.
Price
The amazingly – low regular price charged for one Fudge Sundae at Hartford, Connecticut area Burger King restaurants is $1. In this day and age, when everything costs so much, I think that this price is extremely reasonable, especially when the great flavor, portion size and high quality are taken into account. The price of this top – notch sundae is actually lower than the regular retail price of most single – serving ice cream treats at convenience stores and pharmacies.
Texture / Consistency
The texture, or consistency of Burger King’s Fudge Sundae is one of the factors that makes eating it so enjoyable. The ice cream is soft, yet not quite as soft as many varieties of soft serve ice cream. It still maintains a sense of firmness that provides it with some bite and substance. The chocolate fudge that co – mingles with the delicious ice cream is just the right consistency to wonderfully complement the delicious vanilla ice cream. Altogether, the consistency of this product provides a satisfying mouth feel.
Nutritional Facts
I could not find accurate nutritional information for Burger King’s Fudge Sundae on the nutritional chart at the Burger King restaurant where I purchased the sundae, or at Burger King’s web site. I was able to find some nutritional facts for this item on other web sites, but because I am unsure of the accuracy of such data, I do not think it would be responsible to list such information.
Taste / Flavor
Burger King’s Fudge Sundae is a very basic, stripped – down item that tastes very good. The sundae features a good amount of flavorful vanilla ice cream that tastes just as good as almost any other variety of vanilla ice cream I’ve ever eaten. The chocolate fudge that is a primary component in this item tastes like the same real chocolate fudge that tops much higher priced sundaes at ice cream parlors and high – end restaurants. I like the flavor of Burger King’s Fudge Sundae so much, that I can’t wait to eat another one of them, hopefully, soon.
Packaging
This delightful sundae is packaged in a clear plastic cup – like container. The container features a snap – on, dome – like lid that is easy to open and close. In the center of the lid, there is a round hole, through which the sundae can be eaten, if one so desires. The container for this sundae does not feature any words or illustrations and no nutritional information is printed anywhere on the container.
Overall Rating
All things considered, the Fudge Sundae from Burger King restaurants is a tasty and refreshing menu item that is very inexpensively – priced. At first glance, the sundae does not look like it holds much ice cream, but in actuality, this sundae contains a generous amount of ice cream and chocolate fudge. Available at many Burger King restaurants across America, their Fudge Sunddae is a highly recommended item by this food writer.
