McDonald’s has announced it will axe several items from its menu as of Tuesday, just weeks after they were added.
Among the sweet treats set to be scrapped from the menu is the KitKat Ruby McFlurry which many customers have described as the “best ever”. However, like other menu items, it was only intended to be added to the menu for a limited time.
The favourite sweet treat is one of several items from the chain’s recently launched grab-and-go menu that are facing an axe.
Fans, however, have been buzzing over the return of McDonald’s all-time favourite breakfast wrap, which made a comeback after a three-year hiatus.

The new and improved version of the breakfast meal consists of a tortilla wrap and two free-range round eggs, which were previously folded.
The menu was added to the item less than a month ago, featuring “soft dairy ice cream swirled with ruby-covered KitKat pieces, wafer pieces and topped with a raspberry sauce.

The newcomers are the Galaxy Truffle Bunny McFlurry and the Hot Cross Bun Pie, which will feature on the menu from Wednesday.
The Galaxy McFlurry, which will sell for £2.19, contains pieces of Galaxy truffled, bunny ears and chocolate drops smothered with chocolate sauce.
Meanwhile, the Hot Cross bun pie marries cinnamon pastry with spiced fruit mix and butter-flavoured cream filling for just £1.99.
The McCrispy Deluxe, Creme Egg McFlurry and Halloumi Fries will also make a highly anticipated return.
The highly anticipated Creme Egg McFlurry combines pieces of the beloved Cadbury Easter egg and soft dairy ice cream, selling for £2.19. A miniature version will be available for £1.59.

The comeback marked a collaboration between the fast food chain and hot sauce manufacturer Frank’s Redhot.
Thomas O’Neil, head of menu at McDonald’s UK and Ireland, announced the return of the item in a statement.
He said: “We know how much our customers love spice, and were blown away by the reaction to the McSpicy when it first launched as a limited edition back in July 2021, growing to a permanent resident on our main menu.
“This collaboration with Frank’s RedHot gave us such an exciting opportunity to build on an already iconic product and create something genuinely spicy but also delicious that we know both McDonald’s and Frank’s RedHot customers will love. We’re really looking forward to seeing the reaction.”
