McDonalds Launches Doughnut Balls And The New Banana Caramel Pie McFlurry

Oh Wow, Mcdonalds, you’ve done it again. First, you kept us stocked with bread and milk during quarantine and now you’re launching two new treats that we can’t wait to try. Introducing Maccas doughnut balls and the all-new Banana Caramel Pie McFlurry.

The lucky ducks living in NSW were the first to sample the McDonald’s “$2 doughnut balls” and the overwhelming message from fans was: “Do-nut take our doughnut balls away.”

The powers that be have heard our calls and now are rolling out the doughnut balls to McDonalds store nationwide and via McDelivery from 10 June.

There’s only one big key difference – the $2 doughnut balls are actually $3.

A McDonalds spokesperson has explained the dollar difference by saying that during its product trial phase in NSW there was an error in the original media reporting, leading fans to (incorrectly) believe the balls were just $2 a pack.

However, we doubt that an extra buck will deter fans after the frenzied feedback the balls received during the testing stage.

The limited edition $3 cinnamon doughnut balls are available in packs of five. You can grab a hot fudge dipping sauce for an extra 50 cents. Apparently, they will only be around until July, so go get ’em now.

It’s The Banana Caramel Pie McFlurry

Also, new to the McDonalds menu is the Banana Caramel Pie McFlurry. This was introduced exclusively via the UberEats app for a week, but now makes its appearance in stores from 10 June.

The all-new McFlurry is described as:
“A perfect combination of Macca’s famous crispy pie pastry with a delicious banana caramel filling combined with caramel topping swirled into our famous soft serve.”

The Banana Caramel Pie McFlurry is priced at $5.00 and for an additional 55 cents, you can get extra caramel topping.

I tried the donut balls and whilst they tasted fine they certainly weren’t worth the price. 6 tiny little balls!

The Banana Caramel Pie McFlurry sound delicious, I will give it a try. I hope the doughnut balls taste as good as the ones I buy from the ACE Donuts van as It will save me travel time.

How do their donut balls differ to any others? I do love donuts so would want to try them, but I also haven’t been to McDonalds in months and don’t want to break the streak. The McFlurry doesn’t sound appealing to me at all.

Love me some donut balls. Will have to be when my kids arnt around or it will cost me a fortune. $3 for 5 balls is a bit of a rip off so they better taste good.

I saw this on the menu at my local mcdonald’s but $3 for 5 donut balls seem a bit expensive. It won’t stop me from trying them though!
