For the time being, Yankees fans will be stuck with having to get an actual fried chicken at Yankee Stadium.
The viral Mini Dessert “Chicken” Bucket — ice cream shaped like a fried chicken drumstick with a chocolate-covered pretzel bone and candied cornflakes and white chocolate — has sold out, The Athletic reported.
The dessert item was a smash hit on social media after the Yanks previewed their new food offerings for home games this season, and received universal praise from the media and influencers who were invited to Yankee Stadium ahead of the home opener.
“Given how well-received the item was on media day, interest from fans was tremendous, and we sold out of the item by the first inning of Saturday’s game,” Yankees senior director of communications Michael Margolis told The Athletic in an email.
The Yankees are selling the treat, which also comes with a mini bucket, for $10.99.
When the Yankees began their six-game homestand in The Bronx, they thought they had enough of the mini dessert chicken bucket, but by Saturday, they had run out.
The Bronx Bombers said the club would let everyone know when they were back in stock.
Yankees broadcaster Michael Kay reviewed the treat on his Instagram account, where he rates chicken tenders at the ballparks he visits while calling games.
“Look at it, it looks like chicken. It’s amazing!” Kay said in his review before taking a bite. “Really good”
“It can’t be better,” Kay added after giving it a 10 rating. “That’s why it’s sold out.”
The Yankees hosted the Marlins during the first set of games at Yankee Stadium in 2026 and opened a three-game set with the A’s on Tuesday night.
They play a three-game road trip in Tampa before returning to Yankee Stadium next week.
