• Popeyes debuts a new "Hot Honey" range following fan demand.

Popeyes is turning up the heat with its latest menu addition: the Hot Honey range. Responding to fan demand, the chicken chain is introducing limited-edition items like the Hot Honey Chicken Sandwich, Hot Honey Saucin’ Wings, and the Hot Honey Box Meal.

Fans of the popular Hot Honey dip, which sold over 80,000 portions in the last month alone, can now enjoy the sweet and spicy flavour in their favourite fried chicken dishes. Popeyes stated that this menu change reflects the increasing popularity of the Hot Honey flavour, which has taken TikTok by storm, racking up 887 million views under the #HotHoney hashtag.

The Hot Honey Chicken Sandwich features a hand-breaded chicken breast with a signature "Shatter Crunchin'" texture, drizzled in the sticky sauce, topped with smoked cheese and pickles, and served in a soft brioche bun. Other offerings include the Saucin’ Wings, available in portions of six, eight, or twelve, and the Hot Honey Box Meal, which includes a selection of menu items, fries, and a drink for just £10.99.

Dave Hoskins, Head of Food at Popeyes, commented: “We saw the love for our Hot Honey dip and knew it was time to launch a range dedicated to this trending flavour. Combining our famous chicken crunch with sweet, sticky Hot Honey gives the ultimate taste experience.”

The new Hot Honey range is available at all Popeyes UK locations, including drive-thrus and delivery services, starting September 17.

Tom Church, Co-Founder of LatestDeals.co.uk, said: “Turning a viral dip into a full flavour range is a smart move by Popeyes – they’re clearly listening to their customer base.”
