Inspired by the classic chocolate-covered Christmas cake, the new Chocolate Yule Log Shake combines Shake Shack's signature chocolate frozen custard with chocolate cake, and then adds whipped cream, cake crumbles, and sprinkles on top. Alongside the new Chocolate Yule Log Shake, Shake Shack's holiday shake lineup also includes two other festive new shakes. First up is the Christmas [Cookie](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mocha-oreo-cookie-shake) Shake, which features sugar cookie frozen custard topped with fluffy whipped cream, crumbled shortbread pieces, and holiday sprinkles. Finally, there's the Apple Cider Donut Shake, which features hand-spun apple cider donut frozen custard with whipped cream and cinnamon donut crunch on top.
