“We always are focused on customer service and value,” said Barry Westrum, executive vice president of Marketing for American Dairy Queen Corporation (ADQ). “November is a big month with the presidential election and the kick-off of the holiday season. We wanted to be part of the big news and we think we are with a riDQulous new Blizzard Treat flavor and meal deal that is sure to delight our customers.”
Many Blizzard Treat flavors, including Choco Mint Brownie, easily can be made into DQ Cakes which are perfect for celebrating holidays and special events including Thanksgiving, birthdays, anniversaries and more.
The Dairy Queen system began blending simple combinations of candies, cookies, fruits and nuts with DQ soft serve in 1985 to create the signature Blizzard Treat. Since then, one-of-a-kind flavors such as Triple Chocoholic, Midnight Truffle and Confetti Cake have delighted Dairy Queen fans as part of the featured Blizzard of the Month program, which began in 2003.
The incredible popularity of the Blizzard brand is what led the Dairy Queen system to initiate the Blizzard Fan Club in 2005 and the Dairy Queen Facebook fan page in 2008. Today, the Fan Club is 4.3 million members strong while the DQ Facebook fan page has more than 5.2 million friends.
