I was given the opportunity to try these DQ cakes through chickadvisor.
I decided to order one for my moms birthday, because she is a huge ice cream lover just like me!
The website visually was very nice, as well as easy to navigate.
I did have to back track because I missed the "customization" link, it didn't stand out very well in my opinion.
The ordering process was very easy and painless.
It would have been nice to see a digital image of what the customizations would look like on the cake,but I kept it basic so I wasn't too worried about how it would look.
There were tons of cake options which is great, I ended up ordering a DQ Blizzard cake, all I can say is YUM!
Loved the cake, and think the online ordering system is great.

We had our 15th Anniversary just last week and this was the perfect opportunity for us to give the website a try. I ordered a Chocolate Extreme Blizzard cake, large, with orange lettering and orange icing. It looked very Fall-ish, but that's okay. These were our wedding colours anyway. The process to order was very straightforward and pleasant. The shop where we went to get the cake phoned us a day in advance to confirm our icing request just in case. The cake was ready on time and was exactly how I wanted it. We were very satisfied with the whole process and the cake was delish! Everything gets a big thumbs up!

I was surprisingly impressed on how easy it was to create a custom cake and add a picture to it. The price was fantastic and who doesn't like ice cream cake.
the process was very easy from beginning to end. I did receive a phone call as the picture I had originally uploaded did not go through, my store of choice called me and provided me with their email so I can send the picture directly to them. I picked up the cake, it looked fantastic, the picture was clear, and we all know how it tastes... delicious...
Thank you Dairy Queen for having this awesome easy order process and to Chick Advisor for allowing me the opportunity to review the entire process.

It was my son's birthday yesterday and so, we went online prior and browse around for different cake design and options. I found that there's quite a different of choices between different stores. Originally I pick the store that is slightly closer to my home but in terms of cartoon character cakes, choices are very limited. But when my hustand picked the store that is in another direction than the original store that I picked, there are way many more choices in terms of birthday cakes for boys with cartoon characters. Also, for the same cake that available in the original store that I picked, this second store is $3 cheaper. However, all the cakes at the second store will require 3 days in advance to place the order. We ended up picking a Toy Story cake with Woody figurine on it. We picked the 8" one since it's only a small birthday celebration within family.
The next day, the store called us saying that the design that we ordered only available in 10", if we wanted it in 8", it will only be a flat computerized design on top of the cake. So, we ended up paying few bucks extra to make it a 10 inch cake and we also request to pick up the cake a day earlier and they said they would be able to do it.
On the day that we picked up the cake, the transaction was going smoothly. We just simply told them that we were there to pick up the Toy Story cake and it was there already and we simply paid for the cake and then left.
My 2 years old was very happy when he saw the cake. It had a 3D Woody figurine and a Buzzlight Year plastic thing on it. The design was really nice on the cake. After we cut the cake, it was chocolate ice-cream inside and it taste good!
My daughter's birthday is next month and she already told me that she wanted me to order a princess cake for her at DQ!

Growing up getting a DQ ice cream cake for family birthday parties was always the tradition, though we never stray from the regular signature ice cream cake. I figured this was the perfect time to try something new! For my cake we decided to try the Mint Oreo Blizzard cake, it was definitely a delicious choice!
Whenever I'm at my local DQ I take a look at the cake options, they usually only have 2 - 3 different flavour options in the fridge, I was happy to see a much broader selection on-line. Our store had such a big selection on-line that I didn't know where to start at first! They offered cakes, tortes and even cupcakes.
Since we weren't celebrating anything with our cake (ok well maybe we celebrated our love for DQ blizzards) the time to order wasn't an issue, we're also super close to our DQ so it wasn't an inconvenience to have to pick it up a few days later. Pick-up was super easy.
In the future I would definitely order my next DQ cake on-line. Their cakes are always a hit and so yummy, and I loved having even more options by ordering from the comfort of my own home!
After receiving a free gift card from Chick Advisor for DQ, I ordered a Skor Blizzard Cake for my husband's birthday using Dairy Queen's new online ording system. It does take 2 days from making your order until it is ready for pickup. With a little advance planning the process was easy. The online website prices included the taxes, so the price you see is what you paid in store. My only complaint was that it appeared the variety of cake options changed depending on the location you were picking up at. It would be nice to see the same selection at all the DQ Stores.
I used my $35 gift card to order a birthday cake for my son (perfect timing). DQ cakes have become a tradition in my home for all our birthdays. I did not order it through the website but preferred calling our local store and placed the order over the phone. It was very fast and the girl was super efficient. I ordered the 10" round Midnight Truffle. Awesome choice! It was super creamy and so fresh. I used a serrated knife to cut the cake and I can honestly say that I had perfect slices. The chocolate was so rich and the cake was not too sweet. If you are looking for the best ice cream cake for a birthday, try the DQ blizzard cakes.
Thank you for giving me this opportunity.
I was lucky to receive a DQ gift card and to be chosen for the DQ Cake review. The DQ location closest to my house did not have online ordering, so I went to the store and picked out a DQ cake to celebrate my daughter's birthday. The selection was great with lots of different styles and sizes. My daughter chose the reese flavoured cake. The store was able to personalize it right away with pink lettering and purple flowers and it looked beautiful! The cake tasted great and all the guests commented how delicious it was. I did find the price to be more than a standard cake but actually less expensive than other brands of ice cream cake.
On a side note, I did look through the on-line selection and was very impressed with the blizzard flavours. I would love to try the skor next time, as long as I can find a location with online ordering near me.
I would definitely choose a DQ cake again in the future.
I ordered a DQ Blizzard Cake (Skor Bar) through their online ordering system after receiving a gift card from Chick Advisor to try out the cake and online ordering system. I was impressed with the variety of cakes available and had a hard time deciding (they all looked so good in the photos). The ordering online was fast, easy to use and allowed me to make the customizations I wanted (message, colour of icing used for message,etc.). When I arrived at the store the cake was ready for me and the staff were very helpful. Again the process was painless. We were celebrating the success of a new family business and it was the perfect addition to the evening. The cake was loved by everyone and many had second slices. I will definately be ordering future cakes this way as it was easy, fool proof and the price and quality can't be beat!
