Wendy’s has introduced a Krabby Patty-inspired burger to celebrate SpongeBob SquarePants’ 25th anniversary, complete with a mysterious Krabby Kollab Sauce. While the sauce’s ingredients remain a secret, fans share speculations and DIY recipes, adding to the nostalgic fun of this limited-time offering.

Wendy’s Adds Mystery to Krabby Patty Kollab Burger with Secret, Tangy Krabby Kollab Sauce

To celebrate the 25th anniversary of Nickelodeon’s animated classic SpongeBob SquarePants, Wendy’s has launched a unique Krabby Patty and a “Pineapple Under the Sea” Frosty, bringing an element of the show’s whimsical world to life. The Krabby Patty, central to the show as the sought-after burger of the Krusty Krab where SpongeBob works, has its own “secret formula” storyline that Wendy’s has creatively embraced.

True to its brand identity, Wendy’s brings its signature square patty to the Krabby Patty Kollab Burger, making it visually recognizable. According to Tasting Table, the burger, resembling Wendy’s famous Dave’s Single, features a quarter pound of beef with American cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickles, and onion. However, a unique off-pink “Krabby Kollab Sauce " sets it apart, reportedly reminiscent of French or Thousand Island dressing but with an added twist. Wendy’s keeps the ingredients under wraps, stating that the sauce contains eggs.

While Wendy’s hasn’t shared the recipe for the Krabby Kollab Sauce, the mystery has led to plenty of speculation. Some food reviewers liken it to a tangier version of Big Mac sauce, spiced up with extra pepper. TikTok reviewer and voice actor Stefan Johnson described it as similar to a Thousand Island-based sauce with a peppery kick, while other reviewers agreed on its bold flavor profile.

Fans Share DIY Recipes as Wendy’s Krabby Kollab Sauce Stirs Up Nostalgic Cravings

Inspired by the intrigue, fans have shared DIY recipes online, typically mixing ketchup with mayonnaise, then adding seasonings like salt, pepper, garlic, onion powder, and a hint of sweetness from sugar and paprika, plus some acidity from lemon juice and vinegar. An alleged Wendy’s employee on Reddit shared a photo of the sauce packet’s ingredient list, which reportedly includes soybean oil, vinegar, sugar, tomato paste, egg yolks, and high fructose corn syrup—though its authenticity remains unverified.

For fans, Wendy’s Krabby Patty taps into nostalgia, offering a taste of childhood memories linked to the beloved underwater world of SpongeBob. Whether the Krabby Patty’s secret sauce fully captures the allure of Bikini Bottom, it’s up to fans to decide if it lives up to their Nickelodeon-inspired cravings.
