what does DQ stand for heading to DQ for your favorite Frozen treat well let's hope it's still
on the menu here are 10 discontinued Dairy Queen items you wish you had this summer chocolate ice
cream is that ice cream for me chocolate ice cream is undoubtedly a classic right up there
with vanilla chocolate ice cream has been a staple go-to flavor for as long as most of us
can remember so when you step up to the counter of your local DQ you'd imagine chocolate would be one
of the most prominent flavors on the menu right well no not right one of the most iconic ice cream
flavors is not available at the quintessential Ice Cream franchise well sort of most DQ locations do
not offer chocolate soft serve there are many reasons why the franchise there were at least
most locations don't serve chocolate ice cream one of the problems is that soft serve machines
are too expensive to have several on hand in fact your average soft-serve machine can cost around
twenty seven thousand dollars and many locations would rather not take the Financial Risk another
issue is those machines take up a lot of space and the locations simply don't have the room that's
why most of the locations prefer to serve only vanilla ice cream however some DQ locations do
offer chocolate soft serve on special days of the week such as Friday or Sunday ultimately it's up
to the individual franchise whether chocolate will be on the menu so don't hold your breath
butterscotch dipped cones good ice cream the dipped cone has always been a DQ go-to mile pretty
simple the coated cone is not only a favorite it's shown that all the fancy crumbles fruit and sweet
fillings aren't absolutely necessary for ice cream to be delicious sometimes simple is the way to go
and that's why the dipped cone has stood the test of time of course the classic chocolate
has always been a hit but a good deal of ice cream lovers out there are partial to the other
iconic DQ dip flavor butterscotch what is it about butterscotch that creamy caramel toffee goodness
is just the right amount of sweetness and richness I realized it was a big deal add to it the fact
that the flavor brings about a bit of nostalgia butterscotch is a flavor that can satisfy your
Sweet Craving and fill you with memories of your grandparents at the same time which is why many
DQ customers favored the butterscotch dipped cone unfortunately the ice cream chain discontinued the
butterscotch dip much to fans disappointment to be fair the butterscotch dip seems to be more of
a favorite with the older crowd so it's not hard to understand why DQ decided to remove it from
the menu as the demand was likely not particularly High however the butterscotch dipped cone is still
missed by many cherry dipped cone nope no one's having ice cream much like the butterscotch dipped
cone the Cherry dipped cone has also disappeared from DQ menus the Cherry dipped cone is instantly
recognizable by its candy apple red color and cherry flavor closely resembling a cherry lollipop
as far as flavors go Cherry is a popular one but can sometimes be hit or miss with that being said
the Cherry dip had quite a loyal fan base and fans flocked to their local DQ for the bright red cone
however hope is not lost as the Cherry dipped cone did make a return back in 2022. unfortunately it
was only for a limited time and along with other short run flavors such as cotton candy dreamsicle
and fruity blast the Cherry dips run was brief it seems that nowadays if you're not partial to
chocolate dipped cones then your best bet is to go home and whip up a batch of DIY dip to satisfy
your Cravings best of luck first time here well be like the cool kids and hit that subscribe button
and never miss out thanks you're the best Oreo brownie earthquake all right here's your brownie
you got about 30 minutes to get someplace safe what happens when you mix the chocolate cream
filled goodness of an Oreo with Frosty silky soft serve just about the best thing that'll
ever touch your tongue which is exactly what you get when you order a DQ Oreo blizzard but could
it get even better well try adding chunks of chewy chocolate fudge brownies marshmallow topping and
whipped cream and that ought to do it what we now have is the Oreo brownie earthquake sundae
and the name is definitely appropriate but don't go rushing to your nearest EQ if you're craving
this mountain of sweet chocolatey goodness because the sundae has been discontinued it was delicious
this unfortunate fact could cause fans of the Sunday to create their own earthquake as they
protest outside their local dqs taking such a glorious item off the menu has never been
explained by the franchise however for those who still crave the Sunday there are alternatives such
as the Royal Oreo blizzard while the Alternatives may not be quite the same at least enjoying one of
those creamy Frozen Delights might quell the urge to create the aforementioned customer earthquake
here's hoping Strawberry Shortcake I forgot my very favorite flavor strawberry a beloved
and classic dessert Strawberry Shortcake is simple relatively easy to prepare and delicious it's easy
to picture a piece of Shortcake topped with ruby red strawberries and mounds of whipped cream when
someone mentions the iconic dessert so it's no wonder Dairy Queen decided to put their own spin
on this classic sweet treat and ice cream lovers were grateful they did DQ's version consisted of
a disc of Shortcake of course but with vanilla soft serve a generous amount of strawberry sundae
topping and whipped cream unfortunately for anyone who can't get enough of the DQ version the item
was discontinued once again eagle-eyed customers may come across the product at select locations
but for the most part the Strawberry Shortcake is no more for those out there in dire need of a
strawberry cake slash ice cream fix the strawberry cheesecake Blizzard May suffice Shortcake
cheesecake it's all delicious at the end of the day Cherry Dilly Bars you're the ice cream man ah
the Dilly bar there's no doubt that the circular ice cream treat is popular in fact some would
argue the Dilly bar is the best ice cream bar on the market Dairy Queen's version of the ice cream
bar is very similar to the dipped cones and can be purchased by the box at any DQ location Dilly
Bars come in chocolate butterscotch and Cherry varieties or at least they used to Once Upon a
Time what's wrong with it are you joking the days of the Cherry Dilly bars seem to be numbered once
again it seems Cherry just can't seem to catch a break over at DQ okay Cherry Dilly Bars aren't
exactly extinct so to speak as select locations do still carry the Beloved bar in fact there are
a few dqs that make their cherry bars in-house but don't carry the pre-made boxed version for
customers to purchase so if you have a craving for Cherry Dilly Bars a thorough search a Kenai and a
little luck may be the answer either way it seems there's still hope for a good old Cherry after all
triple chocolate Utopia eat it one two three times the chocolate is sure to grab anyone's attention
as fantastic as chocolate is on its own adding triple the amount is a definite crowd pleaser so
it comes as no surprise that the creative minds at DQ created the triple chocolate Utopia what
is this concoction you ask the triple chocolate Utopia is a fudge sundae consisting of cocoa fudge
brownie pieces and chocolate chunks all living in Blissful Harmony within vanilla soft serve
enjoying this Sunday is easy however the triple chocolate combo of cocoa fudge chocolate chunks
and brownie pieces make the Sunday Ultra Rich so it may take some time to eat or it would have as
the decadent triple chocolate sundae is no longer available why who knows the only thing that's for
certain is that DQ has a lot of disappointed chocolate fans to answer to for taking this
Sunday off the menu crushed peanuts one of the best things about Sunday is all the delicious
topping choices after all without hot fudge or caramel drizzle all you have is a plain bowl of
ice cream well that's hardly a Bad Thing toppings are a Surefire way to make your ice cream pop of
course there are so many different toppings from Chopped fruit the aforementioned sweet drizzle
and crushed peanuts is a sundae or banana split for that matter really complete without crushed
peanuts not really and for the longest time Dairy Queen offered the delicious crumbled nuts
along with all the other familiar mouth-watering toppings it made so much sense when she told me
but for some reason select DQ locations in Canada have decided to remove crushed peanuts as a Topper
option and are now using whole red skin Spanish peanuts not exactly the classic ice cream topping
that we all remember from our childhood right however for those yearning for those crunchy
little fellas that rest atop their ice cream the caramel drumstick blizzard does come with chopped
peanuts so all in is not lost frozen hot chocolate but you cannot have hot chocolate hot chocolate
is one of those drinks that pairs perfectly with the cold weather the comforting warmth of the rich
chocolate and the fun of the marshmallows melting on top instantly brings you back to your childhood
drinking a nice warm cup after playing in the snow outside but hot chocolate doesn't always have to
be a winter drink after all chocolate is something that should be enjoyed all year that's where the
frozen hot chocolate comes to the rescue courtesy of Dairy Queen yes the frozen hot chocolate is
DQ's secret weapon against the Blazing heat The Perfect Blend of Frosty goodness and creamy
chocolate the frozen hot chocolate is basically a milkshake with fudge slushy mix and soft syrup
how delicious is that right yes pretty delicious and almost too good to be true unfortunately the
frozen hot chocolate has been discontinued but the item can be created if you order from DQ's secret
menu all the ingredients for the throw frozen hot chocolate are available so if you must have
one the secret menu will become your best friend in this time of need chili cheese dogs oh oh you
gotta try this when you think about Dairy Queen chances are you picture a towering swirl of soft
serve teetering on top of a cone or perhaps a sick and frosty blizzard packed with bits of
Oreo M M's or Snickers goodness however there's more to life than Frozen creamy deliciousness
DQ has long been home to much more than just ice cream and other Frozen treats in fact the chains
burgers fries and chicken strips are quite capable of holding their own against monster franchises
like McDonald's and Burger King actually I don't think I've ever had a proper meal one of the hot
food items that was unique to the ice cream chain was their various hot dogs especially their chili
cheese dog ah yes the DQ chili cheese dog was a mouth-watering dog drenched in Rich beefy
chili and topped with cheese so sounds pretty amazing right well tell your taste buds to calm
down because the chili cheese dog is no longer available in Canada that is yes it seems that
select Dairy Queen locations in Canada no longer offer the delicious chili covered hot dog so if
you're so inclined to search for a chili cheese dog from your favorite ice cream chain it may be
a lengthy one but there's still a chance got a favorite you've seen disappear let us know
