Instead of offering traditional indoor dining experiences this year, White Castle is helping couples eat from the comfort of home with its new Valentine's meal for two. White Castle's 8-Slider Love Cube creates a memorable meal at home with a pair of small soft drinks and a choice of two shareable sides.
The perfectly sized hot pink Love Cube will exclusively be available for delivery or carryout on February 14th, while supplies last. The first-of-its-kind customizable meal for two from White Castle is being introduced alongside a brand-new dessert on a stick. The strawberry swirl cheesecake boasts swirls of strawberry filling and a chocolate cookie crust, and it joins other fan-favorite desserts on sticks like the previously introduced fudge-dipped brownie and gooey butter cake.
