Dairy Queen's New Dreamsicle-Dipped Cones are Perfect for Spring
Katherine Pendrill — March 31, 2019 — Lifestyle
Nothing says warmer weather quite like ice cream, which is why Dairy Queen's new Dreamsicle-Dipped Cones are the perfect spring treat.
Dairy Queen's new Dreamsicle-Dipped Cones is a fresh take on a classic DQ item. As the brand explains, the new cones consist of classic vanilla soft serve ice cream covered in a "vibrantly colored, creamy orange and vanilla flavored coating." In other words, it's basically an orange-flavored take on the brand's signature Chocolate Dipped Cone.
While the new creamsicle treat was originally debuted at just a handful of stores, the customer reaction has been so positive that more stores will offer the ice cream as of May 1st. Certain locations have even begun selling a Dreamsicle version of the dilly bar due to the demand.
