If you\u2019re a lover of cereals and sweets to start your day, this menu was curated specifically for you (and me, too).<\/p>\n<p>What are the new desserts at Dairy Queen?<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2242341\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 1.5;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/I-Tried-DQs-New-Breakfast-Inspired-Menu_Dairy-Queen-New-Dessert-Side-by-Side_Melany-Love-For-Taste-O.jpeg\" alt=\"I Tried Dq's New Breakfast Inspired Menu Dairy Queen New Dessert Side By Side Melany Love For Taste Of Home Dkedit\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"\/>Melany Love For Taste Of Home<\/p>\n<p>The three major additions are:<\/p>\n<p>Choco Frosted Donut Blizzard:\u00a0Classic chocolate frosted doughnut pieces mixed with colorful rainbow sprinkles in DQ\u2019s famous <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/is-dairy-queen-real-ice-cream\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" tabindex=\"0\" aria-label=\"vanilla soft serve\" data-name=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/is-dairy-queen-real-ice-cream\/\" data-module=\"embedded link\" data-position=\"embedded links\">vanilla soft serve<\/a>.<br \/>\nFruity Pebbles Shake: Crunchy Fruity Pebbles cereal blended with vanilla soft serve and milk, with whipped topping to finish it off.<br \/>\nCinnamon Toast Crunch Dipped Cone: Creamy vanilla soft serve twisted and dipped in a sweet cinnamon cereal coating, complete with crunchy cereal bits and topped with Cinnadust.<\/p>\n<p>The inclusion of such iconic cereals was a massive pull for me\u2014Cinnamon Toast Crunch is my favorite cereal of all time, and I\u2019ll never turn down an ice cream cone opportunity. Not only that, but I also love a fruit-centric shake, so the Fruity Pebbles shake has been calling to me in my sleep.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s What I Thought<\/p>\n<p>I tried the Choco Frosted Donut Blizzard first, as it was objectively the most appealing. The rainbow sprinkles and vanilla soft serve felt like a saccharine dream, but I wasn\u2019t a huge fan of the chocolate doughnut pieces. They tasted more like artificial fudge, and I would have loved for about 75% more pieces mixed in. This Blizzard was enjoyable enough, but not my fave.<\/p>\n<p>I went for the Cinnamon Toast Crunch dipped cone next, partly because it\u2019s my favorite flavor and partly because it was threatening to melt the fastest. The coating was immediately recognizable and delicious. The Cinnadust brought me back to childhood in a blink. It was like eating a hearty version of cinnamon cereal milk. I wish I had gotten a bigger size!<\/p>\n<p>Now for the Fruity Pebbles shake. I was every bit as pleased with it as I had expected to be. If you\u2019ve had Fruity Pebbles before, you already know exactly what this shake tasted like. It\u2019s creamy, it\u2019s fluffy, it\u2019s full of fruity flavor. The vanilla soft serve is a perfect backdrop. I can usually only take so much sugar at a time, but I\u2019ll make an exception for this shake.<\/p>\n<p>How long will the breakfast collection be at Dairy Queen?<\/p>\n<p>This new menu is available for a limited time at participating Dairy Queen locations while supplies last, so don\u2019t wait. I have a feeling these treats will go fast as the weather starts to warm. As for me, I\u2019ll be ordering the Fruity Pebbles shake as many times as I can.<\/p>\n<p>Related:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Dairy Queen must have a royal set of spies following me everywhere I go because the chain just&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":217920,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[9,24,13256,63,122,124,123],"class_list":["post-217919","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-queens","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-not-set","tag-nyc","tag-queens","tag-queens-headlines","tag-queens-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/217919","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=217919"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/217919\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/217920"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=217919"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=217919"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=217919"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
