Level Up Your Merienda: McDonald’s PH Launches New McSavers Snack and Match Flavors

McDonald’s Philippines is officially bringing the "extra" back into your daily snacking routine with exciting, limited-time additions to its beloved menu. Starting July 3, foodies and bargain hunters alike can elevate their afternoon breaks with three brand-new, mouth-watering offerings: the Choco Lava Puff, Poptato, and the Taro Custard Pie.

Available under the incredibly popular McSavers Snack and Match promo, these new treats prove that delicious, high-quality snacks don't have to break the bank. Customers can enjoy these new items as a solo treat for just PhP 59, or upgrade to a satisfying combo for only PhP 79.

The Heart of the Filipino Merienda Culture

In the Philippines, merienda (the mid-afternoon snack) is much more than just a quick bite to eat; it is a cherished cultural tradition. It is a dedicated time to pause, recharge, and connect with the people around us.

“For countless generations, the merienda has been the Pinoy way of not just having daily well-deserved breaks but also of bonding and connecting with others," explains Ada Almendras-Lazaro, Chief Marketing Officer of McDonald’s Philippines. "Whether with classmates in school, with co-workers between meetings and tasks, or even with loved ones in between chores at home, merienda is our way to recharge before we continue our day."

Recognizing the importance of these shared moments, McDonald's designed the new Snack and Match offerings to bring fresh, flavorful combinations to the quintessential Filipino afternoon habit.

Meet the New Stars of Your Afternoon Break

If you are looking to add a little extra flavor to your day, these three new limited-time items are guaranteed to satisfy your cravings:

1. The Choco Lava Puff

Calling all sweet tooths! The Choco Lava Puff is a beautifully indulgent pastry designed for chocolate lovers. It features a flaky, buttery crust that gives way to a rich, warm chocolate pie filling. It is the ultimate comfort snack for those looking for a quick sugar rush.

2. The Poptato

Imagine the World Famous McDonald's Fries, but with a fun, bite-sized twist. The new Poptato features a satisfyingly crispy golden exterior with a soft, fluffy potato inside. They are incredibly highly snackable—perfect for popping into your mouth while studying, working, or chatting with friends.

3. The Taro Custard Pie

For fans of Asian-inspired desserts, the Taro Custard Pie offers the best of both worlds. This dual-filling fried pie takes the classic, lightly crisped McDonald's crust and stuffs it with the perfectly complementing, earthy sweetness of taro and rich, creamy custard.
