Rather, it combines the standard Dairy Queen Oreo cookie pieces with red and blue popping candy in vanilla soft serve.<\/p>\n<h3>How is it?<\/h3>\n<p>The classic Oreo Cookie Blizzard flavor serves as the night sky to the carbon dioxide based confectionary \u201cfireworks.\u201d The popping candy is abundant without seeming to come at the cost of the cookie mix-ins. Meanwhile, Uncle Sam-themed light red and blue \u201ccandy white coating\u201d prevents premature detonation of the pressurized cores. Initially a bit odd to bite into, the almost squishy sheath is starkly contrasted against the crisp crunch of cookie bits and rock centers alike. Once the fuse is lit by puncturing the shell, the candies pop with aplomb. <\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Dairy-Queen-Oreo-Firework-Blizzard-3.jpg?resize=599%2C530&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Dairy Queen Oreo Firework Blizzard 3\" title=\"Dairy Queen Oreo Firework Blizzard 3.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"599\" height=\"530\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, I prefer fireworks lighting the night sky to launching from my spoonful of ice cream. What begins as an interesting novelty grows tiresome by the bottom of the cup. To its credit though, the popping candy is more than just a marketing gimmick to elicit \u201coohs and aahs\u201d from the crowd. The protective candy coating itself is infused with a delicious creme flavor. This is sure to please all of the cr\u00e8me loving Oreo \u201cTwisters\u201d out there, you know who you are. <\/p>\n<h3>Is there anything else I need to know?<\/h3>\n<p>I almost died bringing you this review. Well, the slick popping candy coating led to mild choking anyway. If you properly chew your treat rather than inhale it like Kirby coming off a 6-month juice cleanse, you should be fine. <\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion:<\/h3>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Dairy-Queen-Oreo-Firework-Blizzard-2.jpg?resize=550%2C554&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Dairy Queen Oreo Firework Blizzard 2\" title=\"Dairy Queen Oreo Firework Blizzard 2.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"550\" height=\"554\" \/><\/p>\n<p>While the creme-flavored candy coating is delicious, I\u2019d rather leave the accompanying explosions to the firework displays than my ice cream.
