KFC Introduces ‘Dunk It Bucket’ With New Mashed Potato Poppers
KFC is bringing big dunk energy to the menu with its new “Dunk It Bucket”, the brand’s first new bucket in nearly a decade. Launching nationwide, this dip-lover’s dream includes hand-breaded Original Recipe Tenders, Secret Recipe Fries, and the all-new Mashed Potato Poppers, all served with a lineup of sauces.
The Mashed Potato Poppers take KFC’s signature creamy mashed potatoes and give them a crispy, golden-fried twist. Available in the Dunk It Bucket or à la carte in a five-count order with warm gravy, these poppable bites are designed for maximum dipping satisfaction.
“We took a KFC classic and turned it into a crunchy, can’t-resist bite of perfection,” said Catherine Tan-Gillespie, President of KFC U.S. “And the Dunk It Bucket? It’s a dream come true for sauce lovers—dip it, dunk it, drench it, do your thing. It’s our first new bucket in nearly a decade, and it was so worth the wait.”
The Dunk It Bucket is available for $7 for a solo serving or $25 for the Double Dunk It Bucket, perfect for sharing. Customers can mix and match their dunking experience with seven sauce options, including: Warm Gravy, Comeback Sauce, Honey BBQ, Honey Mustard, Sticky Chicky Sweet & Sour Sauce, Classic Ranch, and Buffalo Ranch.
Timed perfectly for March’s college basketball madness, KFC is also launching exclusive Dunk It merch on KFCShop.com. The collection features a mini basketball hoop and ball, stickers, and stylish apparel, letting fried chicken fans show off their dunking skills both on and off the plate.
The Dunk It Bucket and Mashed Potato Poppers are available starting today for a limited time, so get them while they’re hot!
