Burger King's new Mini Shakes are essentially a pint-sized version of the brand's popular shakes. The new Mini Shakes combine the chain's classic vanilla soft serve with flavored syrup in a nine-ounce cup. The shakes are also topped with whipped cream and come in three classic varieties: Vanilla, Strawberry, and Chocolate. The Chocolate Mini Shake is especially noteworthy as it's made with [Hershey’s](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hersheys-sundae) chocolate syrup, which is low in calories and fat-free, but doesn't sacrifice flavor. With a growing number of consumers looking for tiny indulgences rather than supersizes desserts, Burger King's new Mini Shakes are just enough to satisfy that craving for something sweet.
