White Castle is Taking Orders for Its "Love Kit," an All-New At-Home Valentine's Day Experience

Available for shipment to all 50 states, the Love Kit includes Sliders, a scented candle and "Craventines" cards to recreate the White Castle dining experience at home

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Jan. 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- For more than 30 years, White Castle, America's first fast-food hamburger chain, has transformed its restaurants on Valentine's Day into Love Castles with special décor, hostess seating and tableside service. Each year, tens of thousands of Cravers join their partners, friends and family for this special evening. But what about those unable to secure a reservation or drive to one of the 300-plus participating Castles?

White Castle has been offering its one-of-a-kind Sliders in retail stores in all 50 states for nearly four decades, offering consumers from coast to coast a tasty and convenient option when they want to enjoy restaurant–quality food at home.

For the first time ever, White Castle Sliders are also available in a special Valentine's Day-themed meal kit that brings the tastes, smells and experience of eating in a White Castle right to Cravers' doorsteps, turning their homes into their very own Love Castles.

Introducing the White Castle Love Kit

The all-new White Castle Love Kit includes everything needed to deliver that one-of-a-kind flavor of 100% beef steam grilled on a bed of onions topped with a perfect pickle, all cradled by a fluffy, delicious bun made in White Castle's own bakery.

"The demand for in-Castle reservations on Valentine's Day has started to exceed our capacity," said Jamie Richardson, vice president at White Castle. "The new Love Kit is perfect for Cravers near and far to make memorable moments at their very own Love Castles! And it's a great reminder that no matter where you live, you can satisfy your cravings with either a memorable moment like the Love Kit delivered to your door or a visit to wherever you buy groceries."   

A perfect gift to share with loved ones, each kit includes 12 Sliders — four Original Sliders^®, four Classic Cheese Sliders and four Jalapeño Cheese Sliders — with preparation instructions developed by White Castle's food experts to recreate the signature steamed taste of Sliders purchased in a White Castle restaurant. The kit also includes dill pickles to top the Sliders to taste, 12 Valentine's Day-themed Slider boxes (just like they are served in the Castle), a White Castle scented candle and a collection of exclusive "Craventine" cards to share.

The White Castle Love Kit is limited in supply, so Cravers are encouraged to act fast. Orders can be placed on the brand's online store, HouseOfCrave.com. Priced at $49 (with nationwide shipping included), the kits will be delivered on or before Feb. 12. Give the gift of the Crave this Valentine's Day.

Cravers can take their celebrations to new heights with exclusive White Castle-branded merchandise with a Valentine's Day theme. The collection features four items as well as the Love Kit, all available on White Castle's House of Crave, an online store featuring a wide assortment of White Castle-branded items.
