Just like a classic birthday cake, Del Taco's brand-new shake consists of the brand’s classic creamy vanilla shake blended with [birthday cake flavor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/birthday-cake-cappuccino) and then mixed with sprinkles for that classic funfetti look. The drink is made to order and only available for a limited time to coincide with the brand's birthday. The launch of the new Birthday Cake Shake also coincides with the debut of Del Taco's new Double [Strawberry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/strawberry-pinata) Poppers, which will come in three different varieties: Double Strawberry Lemonade Poppers, Double Strawberry Sprite Poppers, and Double Strawberry Mini Shake Poppers.
