McDonald’s fans in the UK are in luck as the new Easter menu arrives today (March 13), including three new limited edition products.
The second new arrival for spring continues the theme of spiced fruit and butter flavors.
To celebrate the nation’s love of the hot cross bun, the new Hot Cross Bun Latte will appear on the drinks menu, priced at £2.69.
The limited edition treat is a smooth latte blended with a sweet and spicy Hot Cross Bun flavored syrup, topped with cinnamon cream and a Hot Cross Bun flavored sprinkle.
Finally, it wouldn’t be a McDonald’s menu without a new McFlurry flavor to try.
Replacing the KitKat Ruby Chocolate McFlurry Valentine’s Day menu will be the Galaxy Truffle Bunny McFlurry, which will cost £2.19.
It consists of milk ice cream with pieces of Galaxy truffle, Galaxy rabbit ears and drops of white and dark chocolate, covered with Galaxy chocolate sauce.
As well as the new Easter additions, some old favorites will also be returning to the UK fast food chain’s restaurants.
If you’re not a Galaxy fan, the Cadbury Creme Egg McFlurry (£2.19) is a dessert option among the spring offerings.

The menu change comes just after McDonald’s UK and Ireland announced it will be making its most significant menu change in decades, as the chain celebrates its 50th anniversary.
In the big shake-up, the restaurant will make changes to the recipes for its beloved beef burgers, promising they will be “better than ever.”
Fan favorites that will see changes include the Big Mac, Quarter Pounder with Cheese, and of course, the classic cheeseburger variations, including the double and triple.
McDonald’s describes the adjustments as “small modifications” to the way it cooks and prepares its beef burgers, improving “all the elements that customers enjoy most.”
From placing onions on top of each burger as it cooks on the grill for added flavour, to changing the browning of beef patties – the chain insists the recipe change will create its “most delicious burgers yet”.
