Burger King launches new Whopper Melts nationwide

Photo by: Burger King Press Release

Burger King is debuting three new burgers this week following a successful trial in Toledo, Ohio, earlier this year. The fast-food brand is finally announcing the nationwide release of its Whopper Melts, which has received good reviews.

Burger King’s new Whopper sandwiches are coming to the stores across the United States, and they are available in three flavors. One thing that is common with the three Whopper Melts is that they are all cheesier than most burgers.

All three burgers feature Burger King’s signature thick flame-grilled beef patties and are served in toasted buns. In between the layers of patties, each type has its own flavorful ingredients.

As mentioned on Restaurant News, the three new burgers are Whopper Melt which has two layers of Jr. flame-grilled beef patties, caramelized onions, American cheese, and Burger King’s own Stacker Sauce. The Spicy Whopper Melt also has two beef patties, caramelized onions, and American cheese, but it does not have the Stacker Sauce and rather has jalapenos and creamy, spicy sauce.

The third type is the Bacon Whopper Melt which has the same ingredients as the Whopper Melt, but this one has strips of crispy bacon. The base price for the new Burger King sandwiches is $4.29, and the exact prices for the meal option were not posted.

As stated in the press release, Burger King is celebrating the debut of this latest menu innovation, and to mark the day, the company is also launching an exclusive offering for its loyal customers. The offer is available for a limited time only and made especially for the Whopper Melt combo meals that start at $6.

Starting this Thursday, March 10, members of BK’s loyalty program, Royal Perks, will be able to access special meal deals via the restaurant’s app and bk.com. This is available at participating Burger King stores in the U.S. Loyal customers can also earn 10 crowns for every $1 spent on food purchases.

Meanwhile, Restaurant Business Online reported that Burger King unveiled the three Whopper Melt varieties after the company previously revealed it would start focusing on its Whopper burgers to reclaim the brand’s fame. The company said that redirecting its focus on marketing its core menu is part of its strategy to get ahead of the fast-food chain business competition.
