Several social-media users are reporting that the chain has begun rolling out a dreamsicle-dipped ice cream cone, dubbed the DQ Orange, accordingto a press releasefrom the company addressingtheir recent Free Cone Day.
With a foundation of the chain’s signature soft-serve vanilla ice cream, the DQ Orange dessert features a dipped shell crafted from the well-loved dreamsicle.
Many lucky patrons have expressed their joy over Dairy Queen’s newest menu addition on Twitter, sharing photos and positive reviews galore.
“The dreamsicle ice cream cone from DQ is legit y’all,”wrote one happy customer(who, according to her Twitter bio, hails from Jackson, Ohio) on Thursday.
Another proponent tweeted, “I’m just sayin … thatdreamsicle dipped ice creamat Dairy Queen is the f—ing bomb.”
In the press release surrounding March 20’s Free Cone Day, Dairy Queen described the DQ Orange as boasting a “creamy and crunchy dreamsicle dip.”
Delishreported that a rep for the restaurant explained the classic treat’s new shell is a “vibrantly colored, creamy orange and vanilla flavored coating” atop the vanilla soft-serve.
