Red Velvet ice cream Cake Dairy Queen

February might still be cold, but the month of love has us feeling warm and fuzzy inside. Whether you’re trying to find the perfect Valentine’s Day presents to give your loved ones, or you plan on showing your affection with a meal made with love, it’s all about showing our appreciation for one another. Well, and Valentine’s Day candy!

Just in case you’re still undecided on what red and pink-hued desserts you’ll be baking up this year, Dairy Queen has you covered. For their February Blizzard of the Month, they’re bringing us an enticing flavor that we’re already in love with. What could it be?

It’s Time for the Red Hot Reveal

What kind of flavors come to mind first when pondering Valentine’s Day? Probably chocolate and strawberries—and if that’s up your alley, you’ll love KitKat’s latest flavor. But there’s one more flavor that’s just as important as either of those options—Red Velvet Cake! Listen, I can’t even begin to explain how excited I was for this announcement. I’m a sucker for all things red velvet!

No, it’s not a completely new flavor, but all that matters is that it’s officially made its comeback! If you haven’t had a chance to try this wondrous dessert in the past, I’ll explain what’s inside. You’ll find spongy red velvet cake pieces swirled together with cream cheese icing in a masterpiece of sweets, all wrapped up in a whirlpool of classic DQ vanilla soft serve. Yes, it’s real, and yes, you have to try it.

When Can I Grab a Red Velvet Blizzard?

The Red Velvet Cake Blizzard treat is officially available starting February 1 at participating locations, so check your local DQ for details. Remember, this Blizzard will only be around for a limited time, so don’t dawdle! The treat is already up in all its glory over at DQ’s website. Grab one for you and your SO this holiday…or even just for yourself! Who says you can’t celebrate self-love on Valentine’s Day? Catch me ordering a large Red Velvet Blizzard this February with NO regrets!

Speaking of cake…have you tried out Black Forest Cake M&M’s yet?

Valentine’s is just a few days away and I have got the perfect sweet treat made just for you and your Valentine from one of America’s favorite places to go for dessert, Dairy Queen!

In celebration of both Valentine’s Day and the brand’s 75th Anniversary (also known as their “Fanniversary”), Dairy Queen is debuting their new heart-shaped Red Velvet Blizzard Cupid Cake – perfectly sized for two!

What is The Dairy Queen Red Velvet Blizzard Cupid Cake?

The Red Velvet Blizzard Cupid Cake is, simply put, heaven on Earth. This delectable, limited edition, 8-inch cake is a deliciously layered delight of Dairy Queen’s signature creamy vanilla soft serve surrounding a center made of rich red velvet cake pieces and cream cheese frosting.

Crumbled red velvet cake is sprinkled on top for a festive Valentine’s Day look.

Is the Cake Available Every Year?

Unfortunately, no. Some years they offer it, and others they do not. I wish they would make it a permanent Valentine’s Day menu item because it really is that good!

2022 Update to the Dairy Queen Cupid Cake

A 2022 update sees some changes that make this delectable dessert even better! Now they have added a layer of their super-popular Red Velvet Cake Blizzard to make it that much more delicious.

And the cream cheese icing now has festive red, pink, and white sprinkles to give it even more Valentine’s Day flare!

Dairy Queen Red Velvet Blizzard Cupid Cake Review

Having had the chance to try the Red Velvet Blizzard Cupid Cake myself, I can honestly say it was love at first bite! Designed in the shape of a heart, the outside of the cake is a thick layer of DQ’s rich vanilla soft serve, generously sprinkled with red velvet cake crumbs for an added bit of both flavor and color.

But it’s when you bite into this cake that you really fall in love!

That’s because practically every spoonful you take has a bite-sized piece of rich red velvet cake iced with cream cheese frosting. The taste of red velvet cake, cream cheese icing and vanilla soft serve all combined together is absolutely amazing!

Don’t just take my word for it though. Head on over to your local Dairy Queen and pick one up. It’s the perfect dessert for a romantic Valentine’s Day dinner!
