[Taco Caban](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/carne-asada-street-tacos) is bolstering its sweets selection with the addition of new Chocolate Chimis.

Starting on March 8, 2023, Taco Caban will begin offering new Chocolate Chimis, alongside the brand's fan-favorite [Oreo Churros](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/birthday-cake-churros). The new chocolate chimichangas consist of a soft flour tortilla stuffed with warm, gooey chocolate cream cheese filling and deep fried until golden brown. The new Chocolate Chimis will be sold in pairs, which makes them easy to share.

Alongside the new chocolate dessert, the brand is also introducing new breakfast combos at all Texas [Taco Cabana](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/2025-qsr-menu) locations. Each of the new breakfast combos will consist of one breakfast taco, one crispy hashbrown, and your choice of either one coffee or one 20-ounce drink.
