Mexican quick service restaurant chain Del Taco has added a new dessert to the menu that replaces a traditional spoon or straw with something much more edible. The new Churro Dipper Shake features a warm, crispy cinnamon churro dipped in a creamy vanilla shake with chocolate swirls.

“At Del Taco, we’ve discovered that the churro is more than just a delicious cinnamon and sugar-doused pastry,” says Barry Westrum, Del Taco’s Chief Marketing Officer. “Its ridges are the perfect tool for collecting and savoring the leftover chocolate sauce and ice cream that the straw couldn’t quite get.”

The Churro Dipper Shake is part of Del Taco’s new Late Night Bites Menu that also includes Queso Loaded Fries and Queso Loaded Nachos.

“For as long as I can remember, we’ve been forced to choose between a straw and a spoon to enjoy our favorite shakes,” says Westrum. “Inspired by our fans’ passion for deliciously Instagrammable content, we wanted to go all in with a fun and craveable late-night offering, perfect for the warm summer nights ahead.”
