Dairy Queen Ice Cream Menu Prices
Dairy Queen does not publish one nationwide price list. Most U.S. restaurants are independently owned, and a treat that appears on the national website may not be offered online—or at all—by every store. The first table uses the same three locations as our complete Dairy Queen menu price guide.
Classic treat prices at three selected stores
| Treat | Columbus | Chicago | Fridley | Observed range |

| Cupfection | $7.93 | $8.74 | $7.43 | $7.43–$8.74 |

The locked delivery menus did not expose cones, sundaes, Banana Split or Peanut Buster Parfait during this check. To answer size-price searches without guessing, the next table uses two clearly named public pickup samples. It should be read as a current market example—not as pricing for the three stores above.
Current cone and sundae size-price samples
| Product | Market sample | Kids | Small | Medium | Large |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Regular cone or dish | Ames, IA | $2.39 | $3.29 | $3.99 | $4.49 |
| Dipped cone | Houston/Tomball, TX | $2.59 | $3.69 | $4.19 | $4.69 |
| Sundae | Ames, IA | — | $3.59 | $4.29 | $4.69 |
Prices were checked on August 24, 2026. Taxes, delivery markups, extra toppings and store-specific substitutions are not included.
DQ Cones and Dipped Cones
DQ’s signature treat is vanilla soft serve served with the curl on top. Current U.S. cone pages show Kids, Small, Medium and Large options. The official lineup contains these core and seasonal choices:
Current cone menu
| Treat | Type / status | Sizes and description |
|---|---|---|
| Vanilla Cone | Core menu | Kids, Small, Medium and Large; vanilla soft serve in a cake cone |
| Chocolate Dipped Cone | Core menu | Vanilla soft serve covered in a crisp chocolatey coating |
| Cherry Dipped Cone | Current catalog | Vanilla soft serve with a bright cherry-flavored coating |
| Cinnamon Toast Crunch Dipped Cone with Cinnadust | Current new / limited item | Cinnamon cereal-flavored coating, crunchy cereal bits and Cinnadust |
| Peanut Brittle Crunch Cone & Sundae | Secret-menu / participating stores | Peanut-flavored crunchy coating with colorful sprinkles; availability varies |
Some restaurants carry optional chocolate or twist soft serve and extra cone coatings, but DQ’s FAQ specifically notes that these optional items are not available everywhere.
Dairy Queen Sundae Menu
A standard DQ sundae combines vanilla soft serve with one topping. Current national product pages include Chocolate, Caramel, Strawberry, Hot Fudge and Peanut Butter sundaes in Small, Medium and Large sizes. The current 2 for $5 page also lists pineapple as a possible topping at participating restaurants.
Current sundae flavors
| Sundae | Sizes | What to expect |
|---|---|---|
| Chocolate Sundae | Small / Medium / Large | Chocolate topping over vanilla soft serve |
| Caramel Sundae | Small / Medium / Large | Sweet caramel topping over vanilla soft serve |
| Strawberry Sundae | Small / Medium / Large | Strawberry fruit topping over vanilla soft serve |
| Hot Fudge Sundae | Small / Medium / Large | Warm hot fudge over vanilla soft serve |
| Peanut Butter Sundae | Small / Medium / Large | Peanut butter topping; contains peanuts |
Dilly Bars, Buster Bars and DQ Sandwiches
Frozen novelties are useful when you want a portioned treat or a box to keep at home. All three locked stores listed Dilly Bars, Buster Bars, DQ Sandwiches and several six-packs during the price check.
- Dilly Bar: vanilla soft serve with a crisp flavored coating. The official page currently shows Chocolate, Cherry and Butterscotch choices; local menus may add or remove flavors.
- Buster Bar: vanilla soft serve layered with fudge and peanuts, then covered in a chocolatey coating.
- DQ Sandwich: vanilla soft serve between two chocolate-flavored wafers. It appeared at all three checked stores even though it was not listed in the current national Classic Treats sitemap group.
Non-Dairy Dilly Bar
The Non-Dairy Dilly Bar is the clearest plant-based choice in the current classic-treat lineup. DQ describes it as dairy-free, gluten-free and plant-based, made with a coconut-cream base and a chocolatey coating. It contains soy and has 240 calories. A single cost $3.35–$3.86 across the three selected stores, while six-packs ranged from $16.24 to $20.15.
“Dairy-free” does not mean allergen-free. DQ warns that allergens are present in its restaurants and cross-contact can occur, so guests with a serious allergy should speak with the local store before ordering.

Dairy Queen’s official treats nutrition table says its information is current as of March 30, 2026. Calories rise with size and richer toppings. The tables below keep calorie data separate from allergens so both remain readable on desktop and mobile.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much is Dairy Queen ice cream in 2026?
Current public pickup samples list regular cones or dishes from $2.39 to $4.49, dipped cones from $2.59 to $4.69 and sundaes from $3.59 to $4.69. Exact prices vary by restaurant, and taxes or add-ons may raise the total.
What cone sizes does Dairy Queen sell?
Current U.S. product pages show Kids, Small, Medium and Large cones. A store can limit which sizes or coatings it offers.
Does DQ still have the 2 for $5 sundae deal?
Yes, the official Small Sundae page currently places it on the 2 for $5 Mix & Match menu at participating locations, plus tax. Check the local menu before ordering.
What is the cheapest DQ ice cream item?
In the size-price samples checked, a Kids regular cone or dish started at $2.39. Among the three locked delivery menus, a single Dilly Bar or DQ Sandwich started at $3.11.
Does Dairy Queen have chocolate ice cream?
Some restaurants offer chocolate or twist soft serve, but DQ’s FAQ describes these as optional items that are not available at every location. Current national classic-treat pages primarily describe vanilla soft serve.
Is the Non-Dairy Dilly Bar vegan?
Dairy Queen describes it as plant-based, dairy-free and gluten-free. Its ingredients include coconut cream and soy lecithin. Shared restaurant environments still create cross-contact risk.
Are Dilly Bars gluten-free?
DQ’s allergen guidance says clear, sealed manufactured novelties such as Dilly Bars are made without wheat, rye, oats or barley in a facility with limited cross-contact risk. This does not include store-made Dilly Bars in paper bags.
What has fewer calories: a cone or sundae?
A Kids Vanilla Cone has 160 calories. Small sundaes in the current official table range from 240 calories for Strawberry to 380 for Peanut Butter, so the Kids cone is lower than the standard Small sundaes compared here.
Where are Dairy Queen Blizzard prices?

National product status, descriptions, calories and allergens were checked against Dairy Queen’s official U.S. sitemap, treat nutrition table, product pages, offer pages and FAQ on 24 Aug 2026.
Price anchors: 2530 Bethel Rd, Columbus, OH 43220; 5636 W Irving Pk Rd, Chicago, IL 60634; and 225 Osborne Rd NE, Fridley, MN 55432. Exact fixed-treat prices came from current public pickup menus for these stores.
