For a limited time in the fall, [Shake Shack](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shake-shack-3) made a Black Truffle Burger available, introducing unusually high-end ingredients to the QSR experience. Now, Shake Shack is offering an exclusive truffle menu in collaboration with New York City’s leading importer of rare and specialty foods, [Regalis Foods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-truffle-table).

The Black Truffle Burger is on the menu, along with other fine creations like the Black Truffle ‘Shroom Burger and the Black Truffle Shake Stack. While there are plenty of [gourmet burgers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultimate-steakhouse-whopper) that are costly, these ones from Shake Shack come in at prices like $8.89 and $11.89. To further elevate the experience and appeal to sauce lovers, Shake Shack also offers additional servings of black truffle sauce for an additional small fee.
