A Thanksgiving Affair: McDonalds Holidays Desserts and The McGriddle

What better way to spend the holidays than with friends and dessert? I got to do just that at the McDonalds Thanksgiving Affair for its media friends. The stars of the event were the McDonalds Holiday desserts and the delicious McGriddle.

I got to make a gingerbread man with my good friend Joy. My artistic skills were kind of rusty so I came up with a semi acceptable gingerbread man.

Some of the other gingerbread men designed by fellow bloggers and the media.

The kids of the Choir of Christmas Joy entertained with a medley of Christmas songs.

Holiday mornings are now more delicious with the new McGriddles! I love the combination of fluffy egg, savory sausage, melted cheese and griddle cakes with the maple syrup already baked in. It’s available in two variants: Sausage McGriddles and Sausage, Egg and Cheese McGriddles.

McGriddles are best paired with a hash brown and a cup of freshly-brewed McCafé Premium Roast Coffee or Minute Maid Fresh Orange Juice Drink.

It’s available for a limited time only so make sure to take advantage of this breakfast delight whether through dine-in, take-out, drive-thru, or McDelivery (via 86-2-36, mcdelivery.com.ph, or the McDo PH App) from 4:00 AM to 10:30 AM in all McDonald’s breakfast stores nationwide.

To welcome the holiday season, McDonald’s has come up with a deliciously sweet way for customers to enjoy the yuletide season! It’ll be a season of swirls with the new McDonald’s Holiday Desserts!

For those who can’t get enough of the classic McFlurry, two new variants are introduced this season for only P50. Choose between the KIT KAT® McFlurry with Choco Bits, where a creamy soft serve is drizzled with chocolate vanilla bits, and the KIT KAT® McFlurry with Caramel Crispies which has rich caramel sauce over a creamy soft serve —both topped with a KIT KAT® wafer stick.

I personally love the KIT KAT® McFlurry with Choco Bits and I can’t resist ordering this when I stop by or in front of a McDonalds store.

If you’re a sundae fan you’ll want to try the new Hazelnut Brownie Sundae which has a generous swirl of splendid hazelnut-brownie sauce and is available for only P32. McDonald’s proves that great treats don’t need to be expensive with the Peanut Butter McDip, a delicious vanilla soft serve glazed with peanut butter-flavored dip on a wafer cone, available at P15.

Aside from the four new desserts offered, the McCafe Coffee Float is also part of this year’s Holiday Desserts line-up. Made of McDonald’s signature Premium Roast Coffee brewed from 100% Arabica Beans, topped with vanilla soft serve and drizzled with chocolate syrup.

McDonald’s new Holiday Desserts offerings are available for a limited time only at all McDonald’s stores nationwide so don’t miss out and drop by soon to try them out. McDonald’s Dessert Centers are also present in over 300 locations, ready to satisfy sweet cravings while on the go.
