Caramel Sundae

What is it?

Warm caramel sauce spooned over soft serve in a cup makes up this straightforward dessert. Buttery and sweet, the sauce has a thinner, more fluid texture than the fudge version, so it runs down the sides and gathers at the bottom. Compared with McDonald's fudge sundae, this one leans more toward caramel and toffee notes than cocoa. Served cold with the sauce added warm, you get a temperature contrast with every spoonful. Eating from the top down, you'll hit mostly soft serve at first, then increasingly saucy spoonfuls as the caramel pools. It's one of the cheaper dessert options on the menu.
