The Wendy’s spring menu launches nationwide on April 27. Fans can try the new Cookie Dough Frosty Fusion or the refreshing Watermelon Lemonade this season. Wendy’s also brings back Sweet and Sour Sauce.

Wendy's spring menu

While we wait for the return of the Wendy’s Pretzel Bacon Pub Burger, the Wendy’s spring menu has been released. Wendy’s is officially welcoming the warmer weather with a refreshed lineup that balances nostalgic sweets with a spicy kick. The fast-food giant announced that it is expanding its core menu while introducing several limited-time innovations inspired by the season.

The Star of the Show: Cookie Dough Frosty Fusion

Headlining the announcement is the Cookie Dough Frosty Fusion. Unlike many seasonal rotations, this treat is joining the core menu permanently. It features cookie-dough pieces and a brownie-batter sauce swirled into the signature Frosty base. While the full menu launches nationwide on Monday, April 27, Wendy’s Loyalty Members can snag early access to the Frosty Fusion via the Wendy’s app now.

Refreshing Spring Sips

To complement the new dessert, Wendy’s is leaning heavily into fruit forward trends with a trio of watermelon-flavored beverages:

  • Watermelon Lemonade: A fresh addition to Dave’s Craft Lemonade lineup using all-natural puree.
  • Watermelon Sparkling Energy: A bubbly fruit-flavored caffeine boost.
  • Sprite Watermelon: A crisp, refreshing twist on the classic lemon-lime soda.

Wendy’s Spring Menu: Turning Up the Heat

For those craving savory flavors, the spring lineup includes three jalapeño-infused items available for a limited time:

  • Jalapeño Ranch Cheeseburger: Fresh beef topped with jalapeño ranch, sliced jalapeños, and melted American cheese.
  • Jalapeño Bacon Breakfast Potatoes: Seasoned potatoes topped with jalapeños, Applewood smoked bacon, and Swiss cheese sauce.
  • Jalapeño Breakfast Biscuits: A spicy morning option featuring a fresh-cracked egg with a choice of sausage or bacon on a buttery biscuit.

“With spring comes warmer weather and refreshing changes in routines, and we are seeing an appetite for bold flavors that mix comfort and discovery,” said Lindsay Radkoski, chief marketing officer at Wendy’s. “Whether it’s something nostalgic, like cookie dough or a bold kick of spicy jalapeño, guests are seeking out menu items that simply feel fun. We’re committed to delivering fresh flavors for every fan with the quality they expect from Wendy’s.”

Wendy’s Sweet and Sour Sauce Returns to Menus

Wendy’s fan-favorite Sweet and Sour sauce is officially back in restaurants across the U.S. after a nearly seven-month hiatus. To announce the return, Wendy’s partnered with Sweet and Sour sauce superfan and social media creator, Jaz Smith (@JustJazzyIDK). “No dream is too big,” said Jaz Smith. “We asked for Sweet and Sour sauce and Wendy’s delivered!”

The full menu will be available at participating U.S. restaurants starting April 27. Learn more about the Wendy’s spring menu at www.wendys.com.
