Cotton Candy Dipped Cones

Dairy Queen is Now Offering a Bright Blue Cotton Candy Dipped Cone

— October 18, 2019 — Lifestyle
Following the success of its Dreamsicle Dipped Cone and Butterscotch Dipped Cone, it seems that Dairy Queen has just added the Cotton Candy Dipped Cone to its ice cream lineup. The problem is, getting your hands on one might be a bit tricky.

The new Cotton Candy Dipped Cone was originally spotted on Instagram by users such as @rymalroaddq. The colorful new treat is a cotton candy-flavored variation of Dairy Queen's classic Dipped Cone, which is made with vanilla ice cream and a hard outer coating. According to most reports, the bright-blue cones appear to be exclusive to select Canadian Dairy Queen stores. When asked about the new flavor, Dairy Queen has remained quiet, meaning it's unclear if the new flavor will roll out on a wider scale.
