Macca’s movie collaboration brings back banana-flavoured desserts

A new McFlurry is also joining the movie-themed menu.

McDonald’s Australia and Illumination are partnering to transform Macca’s restaurants across Australia in celebration of Despicable Me 4, arriving in cinemas on 20 June. 

From Wednesday 12 June for a limited time only, Macca’s will be unleashing the joy of the Minions in restaurants across Australia with Despicable Me 4-inspired menu items.

The menu features three banana-flavoured desserts - back by popular demand, a Happy Meal with 12 exciting toys, bespoke themed packaging and more.

The fan favourite Banana Thickshake is back by popular demand and is an impossibly thick and incredibly delicious shake that is made with creamy, fresh milk and banana-flavoured syrup.

Making a return since it last appeared on menus in 2020 is the Banana Caramel Pie. The already delicious Banana Caramel Pie is made even better as a McFlurry. Introducing the Banana Caramel McFlurry – crisp pastry pieces filled with a creamy banana custard and caramel sauce on a bed of Vanilla or Chocolate Soft Serve, topped with an extra drizzle of caramel sauce.  

For the kids, the Minions will take over Macca’s Happy Meal for a limited time.  

As part of the Despicable Me 4  Happy Meal, customers will have the choice of an exciting activity book with glimpses into the new movie or a toy. There are 12 limited edition Mix and Match Minion toys up for grabs, giving kids the chance to build and interact with their favourite Minion. 

“We’re so excited to collaborate with Illumination’s Despicable Me franchise for what is certain to be one of the biggest blockbuster movies of the year. Since they first appeared in 2010’s Despicable Me, the Minions have become global icons, infiltrating pop culture in a meaningful way,” Nichole Tsiros, Senior Brand Manager for McDonald’s Australia.
