WENDY'S fans have been bursting with excitement as the fast food chain teases an upcoming seasonal Frosty launch — and pumpkin spice lovers will be ecstatic.
Throughout Wendy’s 50 plus year history, many menu items have made a mark on customers.

From the classic Dave’s Double to the legendary baked potato side or its hearty chili, Wendy’s has it all — but few things can match its iconic Frostys.
Frostys have generally been offered in Vanilla or Chocolate flavors, but in recent years, the restaurant chain has gotten a bit more creative.
Guests were delighted when they got a taste of the seasonal Strawberry, Peppermint and now Cream Cold Brew Frosty in stores for a limited time.
But in the coming fall months, Wendy’s might just outdo itself once again.

One Wendy’s fan asked the restaurant chain on X (formerly known as Twitter):
“so when are you gonna release a Pumpkin Spice Frosty?!?!”
As a response, Wendy’s clapped back with a picture of its Wendy’s mascot in an orange skeleton suit, Frosty in hand.
The tweet has many customers speculating that Wendy’s could be bringing the pumpkin-infused Frosty to menus very soon.

If and when the festive fall treat hits menu boards, some shoppers swear they’ll be buying it daily.
“Definitely get your best people working on a pumpkin spice frosty, that would be amazing, I'd be buying it daily for the rest of the holiday season,” one Wendy’s customer wrote back.
“If the pumpkin frosty is just a rumor I am unsubscribing myself,” another fan wrote as a reply to Wendy’s tweet.
Another fan excitedly hit back the chain with a Dumb and Dumber gif reading, “So you’re telling me there’s a chance?”
To this, Wendy’s replied: “I nvr know wut I'm saying.”
WENDY’S IN THE NEWS
Before teasing a potential upcoming fall take on its signature Frosty, Wendy’s launched its Creme Cold Brew version of the legendary dessert beverage.
The company said the new flavor merges smooth, cold-brewed coffee with traditional Frosty creamer and the choice of rich vanilla, chocolate or new caramel syrup.
"Wendy's slow steeps coffee beans in cold water for 12 hours to create the smoothest, never bitter, refreshing brew,” the company said in a press release. “It's exactly what this summer's coffee drinkers have been craving.”
There were several other seasonal offerings at the fast food chain as well.
That included the summer strawberry salad, which features strawberries, grilled chicken and bacon.
Each salad is also topped with candied almonds, Tuscan cheese, and a champagne vinaigrette for an average price of $8.19.
And starting tomorrow, Wendy’s will be launching its new breakfast English muffin sandwiches.
"We tested 60 variations of our English Muffin Sandwiches before we landed on these light and fluffy English Muffins made with a touch of honey and topped with a savory buttery spread, fresh cracked eggs and delicious bacon or sausage for the perfect harmony of breakfast flavors!" the brand said in its release.
Each sandwich comes with a “one-of-a-kind savory buttery spread that marries a hint of brown butter sweetness with fresh black pepper,” the company said.
Wendy’s has also invested in a high tech delivery system that would allow a robot to give out orders in just seconds.
The fast food chain partnered with Pipedream, a hyperlogistics company, to create and pilot the system, which would see meals transported underground and delivered at the car-side Instant Pickup portal.
"We are consistently innovating to meet our customers, however they choose to engage with us.,” Matt Spessard, Wendy's Global Chief Technology Officer, said.
Wendy’s fans have also been demanding the chain bring back its discontinued bourbon bacon burger.
Several fast food brands are experimenting with new formats to bring out customers’ food orders quicker.
