This would’ve been better as Printed Fun Pop-Tarts. It would’ve brought “Gotta catch ’em all” excitement. Instead, it’s one box with all the same standard looking Pop-Tarts inside. Yawn. (Spotted by Allison H at Target.)

REVIEW: Dairy Queen Cinnamon Toast Crunch Dipped Cone with Cinnadust

The sweating Dairy Queen Cinnamon Toast Crunch Dipped Cone

I’ve had more Dairy Queen Blizzards than any dietician or doctor would ever recommend, but I don’t believe I’ve ever had a DQ dipped cone of any sort. That all changed when I strolled into DQ and ordered up the new Cinnamon Toast Crunch Dipped Cone with Cinnadust. It’s part of the new “Breakfast Collection,” which, despite the name, is available all day. It turns out, I have been missing out.

I’m not sure I would have been impressed by a standard chocolate-dipped cone, but this upscale version did get my attention. I did not see it being made, as my local DQ has the kitchen and treat preparation area hidden from view, but the DQ website implies a two-step process with the vanilla cone dipped in a cinnamon coating and then sprinkled with Cinnadust. The result is splendidly sweet cinnamon goodness.

See the Cinnadust?

When the cone was delivered to my table, it appeared to be sweating in fear that it was about to be consumed. And those fears were well-founded, as not long after, only the paper cone wrapping remained. The coating was quite thick and took a bit of careful use of the teeth to prevent any major spillage, but it was worth the effort. The Cinnadust added some nice texture and extra flavor.

See the cereal pieces?

What makes this cone special is that the coating has tiny pieces of Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal embedded in it. There’s not a lot, but it was enough to deliver the distinctive flavor of the classic breakfast staple. If you like Cinnamon Toast Crunch and you like ice cream, then you will enjoy this no matter the time of day.
