For the first time ever, Portillo's will offer nationwide delivery of its famous chocolate cake.
The local Chicago restaurant announced Tuesday that customers will now be able to ship two pre-baked chocolate cake layers and a do-it-yourself icing kit, complete with frosting and a spatula, straight to their homes.
“For the upcoming holiday season, we wanted to give Portillo’s fans a new way to enjoy their favorite menu items,” Portillo’s CEO Keith Kinsey said in a statement. “The additions to our Shop & Ship service make it easier than ever for our customers to relish Portillo’s year-round, regardless if they live near one of our locations.”
A new subscription service, Portillo's 365, was also unveiled Tuesday. The subscription includes a rotating selection of Portillo's most popular menu items, delivered every other month, anywhere in the country.
