With many consumers still opting for takeout and meal kits instead of dining in restaurants, [Shake Shack](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/veg-out-picnic) has begun offering new DIY Sundae Kits. The at-home dessert kits join the current DIY Shackburger [Kit](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/softserve-treats), which contains all the ingredients needed to make eight Shackburgers at home.

Shake Shack's new DIY Sundae Kits are currently being sold at locations in Southern California for $24.99 each. Each kit includes a pint of vanilla frozen custard and a pint of chocolate custard. Customers can then top their custard with a medley of different toppings, such as sugar cones, fudge sauce, strawberry sauce, rainbow sprinkles, and chocolate cookie crumbs. The kit even includes a whole spray can of whipped cream.
