Theme park fans and chocolate lovers have a brand-new reason to celebrate this season. Johnny Rockets, the retro, all-American burger concept owned by FAT Brands Inc., is kicking off the new year with a limited-time shake that pays homage to classic flavors and timeless taste: the Hostess Cupcake Shake. In a first-of-its-kind national collaboration, Johnny Rockets has teamed up with Hostess, The Dairy Alliance, and Blue Bunny to debut the iconic Hostess Cupcake in shake form.

Hostess Cupcake Shake: A Chocolate Lover’s Dream

Available now through April 30, the Hostess Cupcake Shake combines the beloved flavors of Hostess Cupcakes with an over-the-top creation. The shake is made with creamy chocolate ice cream and a rich swirl of chocolate syrup, then topped with real whipped cream and finished with a signature Hostess Cupcake right on top.

“For 40 years, our fans have known and loved us for our iconic, hand-spun shakes made with real ice cream,” said Jenn Johnston, Chief Marketing Officer at FAT Brands. “Our new Hostess Cupcake Shake in partnership with the Hostess brand delivers on this commitment with the perfect blend of fun and timeless flavor.”
