Swirled Soft Serve Desserts

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Checkers and Rally’s New Wicked Strawberry Cones are Here for Summer

— June 12, 2019 — Lifestyle
Following the debut of its new Steak Subs, Checkers and Rally’s is further expanding its summer menu with the addition of Wicked Strawberry Cones. Featuring two delicious flavors in one, these new cones take soft serve to the next level.

Checkers and Rally’s new Wicked Strawberry Cones are strawberry-flavored soft serve desserts that the chain has dubbed “cold, creamy and wickedly delicious.” The indulgent soft serve cones come in two different varieties: Classic and Cone-Swirl. The former consists of creamy Racecar Red Strawberry soft serve in a sugar cone. For a tasty flavor duo, the Cone-Swirl variety combines Vanilla and Racecar Red Strawberry Swirl soft serve in one. Both are available at participating Checkers and Rally’s locations for just a limited time.
