Burger King® Brings Back Crown Nuggets

Burger King® has exciting news for nugget lovers: starting June 2, 2026, the fast-food giant is bringing back the beloved Crown Nuggets to locations across the United States. This marks the first time these fan-favorite, crown-shaped, dippable snacks have been available since their hiatus in 2011, after numerous requests from loyal customers.

A New Partnership with Crayola

To add a sprinkle of fun this summer, Burger King is partnering with Crayola, a brand synonymous with creativity and colorful expression. Beginning June 9, the King Jr. Meal will feature a special Crayola theme that includes a co-branded 4-pack of Crayola crayons and a colorable crown along with the meal bag. These additions aim to transform mealtime into a vibrant, hands-on experience that encourages creativity among children and families.

Joel Yashinsky, Chief Marketing Officer at Burger King USC, expressed excitement about the return of Crown Nuggets. He said, "We've been committed to creating awesome experiences for the whole family and listening to our Guests, and bringing back our Crown Nuggets allows us to do both of those things." Yashinsky believes that the partnership with Crayola enhances the overall dining experience by encouraging engagement, creativity, and fun at the dining table.

Anna Roca, Head of Global Partnerships for Crayola, echoed similar sentiments, stating, "Crayola has always been focused on creating fun for the whole family, making this partnership with Burger King a natural fit." She highlighted how both brands are collaborating to make mealtime an engaging and colorful experience that families can enjoy together.

Details of the Offering

Starting June 2, the Crown Nuggets will be available in the King Jr. Meal for $3.99, which includes a side and a drink, providing a delightful meal for kids. Additionally, customers can order an 8-piece of the Crown Nuggets to share the joy with friends and family. This limited-time offering is set to be available while supplies last, so fans are encouraged to visit their nearest Burger King location early.

The promotional King Jr. Meal, enhanced with Crayola's colorful touch, will be available from June 9, promising an experience that engages not just the palate but also the imagination.
