At noon on December 27, McDonald’s China’s second fan conference was held in Shanghai. He Yabin, chief growth officer of McDonald’s China, delivered a speech. He Yabin announced that in 2026, McDonald’s breakfast star Maple Flavor Thick Waffles (McGriddles), which is popular around the world, will land in mainland China for a limited time for the first time.
According to reports, the maple-flavored thick waffle burger is based on maple-flavored waffles, sandwiched with classic pork tenderloin patties and fragrant cheese. The salty and sweet interweaving brings a rich and unique flavor. There are two versions with steamed eggs and without steamed eggs. From January 1st to January 4th, maple flavored thick waffle burgers will be specially available all day long for 4 consecutive days.
He Yabin announced that starting from January next year, Xpress 1+1 will be upgraded. Not only will it be replaced with a new blue and pink new skin, but the popular product Mai Xiangyu will also be added for the first time.
The upgraded Blue Zone includes Mai Xiang Fish, Gouda Custard Double Beef Burger and other meat product choices. The Pink Zone adds 3 flavors of Mai Cool, as well as freshly brewed ice coffee and corn cups. The new products will be available for a long time.
