However, when I ordered the new Heath Brownie Caramel Cupfection at Dairy Queen, I didn\u2019t know what I was getting.<\/p>\n<p>Well, that\u2019s not entirely true. I knew that it would have ice cream and at least the ingredients listed in the title, but I didn\u2019t know much beyond that. Was it a shake? A sundae? What in God\u2019s name is a \u201cCupfection?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>My treat was served on one of those ubiquitous little cardboard drink trays that DQ uses for ice cream and drinks, and it looked basically like a shake with abundant toppings. \u201cOkay,\u201d I thought, \u201cSo a \u2018cupfection\u2019 is just a fancy name for a shake; I can handle this.\u201d Seeing all the different layers on top and the pure white soft-serve on the bottom, I assumed I was supposed to mix it all up, which sounded fun. However, I soon realized there is no mixing this thing up because there is an entire freakin\u2019 brownie sitting on top of the treat, and you need to fully consume the brownie before you can access most of the ice cream. I had originally assumed that the \u201cbrownie\u201d in the title must refer to small chunks in the mix, but oh, no: this thing is massive.<\/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\/2022\/10\/dqheabrocarcupf2.jpeg?resize=500%2C500&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Dairy Queen Heath Caramel Brownie Cupfection Brownie Dig In\" title=\"dqheabrocarcupf2.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In addition to the brownie, this thing also has a river of caramel and Heath bar pieces. The only time I see Heath bars available in any form is as an optional ice cream topping that I never order, so I didn\u2019t know what they tasted like, and to be honest, I still don\u2019t. Their flavor is totally overpowered by everything else that\u2019s going on here. What the Heath bar pieces do is provide a highly satisfying crunch that serves as a contrast to the abundant, sticky caramel and the chocolatey gooeyness of the brownie.<\/p>\n<p>I started to feel a little sick about two-thirds of the way through, but for some reason, I felt compelled to finish it, maybe to prove my mettle as a dessert eater? I\u2019m not sure what I thought I was accomplishing, but I did eat the whole thing and then felt sick for about two hours afterwards. Do I regret it? Not really; it was nice to have a sugary treat that completely satisfied my gargantuan sweet tooth, which is never truly content with more reasonable portions.<\/p>\n<p>DQ\u2019s website says that this thing has 760 calories, and I frankly think that\u2019s a lie. I know what a 1,000-calorie-plus treat tastes like, and that\u2019s what this thing tasted like. Maybe I got a larger brownie than usual, but 760 just sounds small for this brownie-laden monstrosity. I guess we\u2019ll never know.<\/p>\n<p>If reading this makes you Cupfection-curious, be aware that there\u2019s also a Brownie and Oreo Cupfection that comes with marshmallow topping and chocolate sauce. The caramel was such a prominent part of the experience that I\u2019m genuinely curious what a version without caramel would taste like. But I won\u2019t find out for a while because I don\u2019t trust myself to order one of these again. I guess I could always get one and split it with my husband, but let\u2019s be honest, I\u2019d just promise certain favors until he gave in and let me eat his half too.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Purchased Price:<\/strong> $5.59<br \/>\n<strong>Size:<\/strong> n\/a<br \/>\n<strong>Rating:<\/strong> 9 out of 10<br \/>\n<strong>Nutrition Facts:<\/strong> 760 calories, 29 grams of fat, 14 grams of saturated fat, 0.5 grams of trans fat, 117 grams of carbohydrates, 390 milligrams of sodium, 2 grams of fiber, 90 grams of sugar, 65 milligrams of cholesterol, and 11 grams of protein.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s pretty unusual for me to order something where I have no clue what it is.
