Even if you don’t enjoy eating fast food menu items for meals like breakfast or dinner, you probably like some fast food desserts. It’s almost impossible not to! Sure, they’re packed with sugar and calories, and none of the desserts are fresh or actually good for you. But they taste delicious! Plus, there’s nothing wrong with indulging a little bit. A Wendy’s frosty on a hot day? Yes, please. A classic McDonald’s apple pie when you really crave something sweet? Yup! A donut from Dunkin’s for no reason at all? Yes to that too.
Consequently, the United States isn’t the only country that offers some seriously irresistible fast food desserts. When chain restaurants expand to other countries, they also adapt their menus to appeal to the local population. So, when you head somewhere new, you’ll likely discover tons of new treats. Some of them will be so good that you’ll wish they were available in the States.
Here are some of the most popular fast food desserts from around the world; they will inspire you to book a plane ticket. They’re that good.
