Popeyes testing new Wild Berry Beignets in three states

Popeyes added a new dessert to its menu, and its arrival is just in time for spring. Then again, the new item is still on trial in three major states in the United States.

Popeyes, the popular Louisiana fried chicken house, is testing the Wild Berry Beignets at select restaurant outlets in New York, California, and Illinois. This dessert has been described as a French pastry that has been fried and coated in powdered sugar before serving.

As its name suggests, Popeye’s Wild Berry Beignets features a wild berry syrup filling and the fruity version of the brand’s Chocolate Beignets that was first launched in the latter part of 2020. According to Fast Food Post, the new dessert will be sold in 3’s, 6’s, and 12’s, and these will be priced at $1.99, $3.99, and $7.49, respectively.

The new Wild Berry Beignets will be an exciting addition to Popeyes’s two fixed dessert menu offerings, which are the Chocolate Chip Cookie and Cinnamon Apple Pie. It turned out that the Chocolate Baignet was only a seasonal product that was released for a limited time.

It was noted that the restaurant is known to add new sweet offerings for a short period; thus, once the Wild Berry Beignets is launched nationwide, it may also be sold in the stores for a few weeks or months as well. Some of Popeyes’ other desserts that have briefly made their appearance on the menu include the Blackberry Cheesecake Fried Pie, Strawberry, and Cream Cheese Pie, the Raspberry Cheesecake Fried Pie, the Strawberry Cheesecake Pie, Blueberry Lemon Cream Cheese Pie, and Bourbon Fudge Pie.

In the report, it was said that the suggested prices for the Wild Berry Beignets may still vary depending on location. Popeyes did not leave a clue as to when the trial is ending and possible time for its arrival in stores across the U.S.

Meanwhile, Popeyes introduced the Wild Berry Beignet not long after it brought back its Flounder Fish Sandwich. The sandwich has been relaunched in time for the Lenten season and this year, a new version has also been added. Customers can buy this item in classic and the new spicy flavor for $4.49 and up.
