The Burger King Whopper Donut has been announced by the QSR brand as a new offering for guests to enjoy on Friday, June 1 to celebrate National Donut Day in an unexpected way.
The burger appears to be a traditional Whopper burger that has had the center portion removed to create the aesthetic of a donut for a somewhat comical way to integrate the brand with the celebratory day. The burger comes with a Mini Slider that is about the size of the hole that is in the main sandwich itself, which means that patrons won't be missing out on any portion of the meal.
The Burger King Whopper Donut and Mini Slider will come packaged in custom boxes with the main sandwich packaging featuring a cutout window to let it be easily seen by customers.
