You still have a chance to catch a special, limited-time Ghirardelli pop-up at the Empire State Building. If you’ve visited this landmark in the past, you may’ve noticed a Ghirardelli Chocolate Company shop on the building’s first floor — but the brand is taking things to new heights in honor of the Empire State Building’s 95th anniversary.

 

Every day, 10 a.m.–9 p.m., through May 10, guests visiting the 86th Floor Observation Deck will be able to enjoy an exclusive, celebratory Ghirardelli treat: the Kong Sundae. The decadent dessert includes vanilla ice cream, hot fudge, whipped cream, diced almonds, a cherry and a chocolate King Kong. In addition to the $18 sundae, guests at the observation deck can also order a hot cocoa for $11. Just look for the Ghirardelli cart overshadowed by a giant King Kong.

 

“We are pleased to celebrate the Empire State Building’s 95th anniversary with our guests, and we cannot think of a better way than with an exclusive Ghirardelli sundae served ESB-style with a special appearance by Kong,” said Dan Rogoski, general manager, Empire State Observatory.

 

(Missed the pop-up? While the Kong Sundae was only available at the observation deck during the popup period, it’s coming to the ground-floor shop later in the season.)
