Available for a limited time, the new King Fusion Popcorn is a tasty take on the brand's signature soft serve. The frozen dessert starts with creamy vanilla soft serve swirled with caramel topping and crispy corn chips. The whole thing is then [topped off with popcorn](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chocolatecoated-popcorn) for a deliciously crunchy twist. Best of all, the new King Fusion Popcorn also comes in a smaller size, dubbed the 'Mini King Fusion.' Alongside the new King Fusion Popcorn dessert, Burger King is also serving up a new peanut butter cookie filled with peanut butter at its French locations.
